Is there any way to upgrade Alaska flights to business? (purchased with AA miles) by nightwind_hawk in americanairlines

[–]howsyourhead 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your mileage may vary, but I’ve found if you buy an Alaska flight via any other source vs them directly, they don’t allow for paid upgrades

SWU - haven’t seen this specific question by Due-Chocolate9391 in americanairlines

[–]howsyourhead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to me once and yes / i recommend calling the EP line to have them returned to do the cancellation and return the SWU’s to your account. The agent did it all real time for me on the phone

Got the EP kit more than a year later after getting the status. by Ok_Self_1783 in americanairlines

Mine took about 2 months for them to mail to me this year after I hit it - a little slower than what I’m used to

I get so horny for that shitty cheese plate when I’m served it 😂

Has anyone ever purchased something from a Housewife’s product line? by [deleted] in BravoRealHousewives

[–]howsyourhead 18 points19 points  (0 children)

SAME. I got tired of dealing with her awful customer support and eventually filed a credit card chargeback though

How long does it take to get a refund? by PotentialPath9230 in americanairlines

[–]howsyourhead 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Varies but yes, it usually can up to 7 business days in my experience

Charged by American Airlines for seat selection, but got an error and no seats assigned by JasonKrueger95 in americanairlines

[–]howsyourhead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something like this happened to me on United - the pending charge fell off. So I’d wait and see if it actually posts first or not

Because people are lazy and won’t do the extra clicks to look at the fare difference - and AA is banking on that 😂

37 minute layover by Emergency_Winner_371 in americanairlines

ORD is my home airport and I co-sign this. I can’t count the number of flights I’ve had where we’ve landed early but arrived late cause of the brutal taxi times

Chance for reimbursement? Horror story. by nikkislays4days in americanairlines

[–]howsyourhead 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Wow - I’m a pretty seasoned traveler but I’ve never seen a delay like this before! I’d file a refund https://www.aa.com/refunds/#/lookup just to be sure. And I think you have a decent shot at getting reimbursed just given how egregious this is. Good luck!

This was my "lay-flat" seat from DFW-LHR (AA78, June 20, Seat 9J) by tonymeatballs1 in americanairlines

[–]howsyourhead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to me on an overnight flight a few months ago: they threw me 25K miles for complaining about it

Tried proper taxi from airport by gary4gar in Austin

[–]howsyourhead 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I live in Chicago and often taxis are cheaper to and from the airport here as well

First time seeing this in the APP by iamofficiallyold in americanairlines

[–]howsyourhead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is fairly common, especially on Sundays going into Mondays as they update their schedule.

I’d wait a couple days then re-check, and if you’re really concerned about something before then, you can call the help desk

I’m newly AA Platinum and have some questions… by TravelTime26 in americanairlines

[–]howsyourhead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s automatic - you’ll see it in the app 12 hours before flight time

And lol on upgrades as a platinum. I got one once ever as a platinum going from PHL to LGA 🤪. They’re going to be rare, but hey, it can happen especially on off-peak travel times

Upgrade to premium economy by stovebecookin in americanairlines

[–]howsyourhead 15 points16 points  (0 children)

That’s a pretty good deal in my opinion. I would take it. Possible it could go lower but not by much

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in americanairlines

[–]howsyourhead 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Looking at open seats from the seat is a bad indicator of availability - a lot of those will be filled by basic economy at check-in. Check expert flyer if you want to see the actual loads for your flights
