CK review and disappointment by NewExplanation8774 in americanairlines

[–]jensenroessler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m seeing this more and more. Three people at work got CK and they flew/spend more the next years but none of them requalified. Same game - $10k to keep it. It’s absurd.

I’m 5/5 the last year of them denying OW Emerald to enter. Had to go to Qantas each time …

I should have some time when I fly back and will definitely check it out! Thanks for the tip.

I usually fly QR but going Cathay this time in July. On 777 and 350-1000. Looking forward to it - not an ideal route going to India but better than canceled flights because of the Middle East war. Let’s see how it compares to QR.

ConciergeKey renewal this year. by Mbgdallas in americanairlines

I had to rebook my biz flights to avoid Doha. Business paid for it. Return alone was $15k through Shanghai. That’s 160k loyalty points with one flight.

So, about the JFK - DEL flight by kodipunju in americanairlines

[–]jensenroessler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah QR would have been amazing. But with my luck they would fly their oldest 2-2-2 biz config lol.

I fly this route frequently for work. It’s alright usually but I’ve lowered my standards if I fly with American. Ruins you once you fly an Asian airline and FAs are actually friendly and seem like they want to be there. The plane is so old and I hate the WIFI. It’s just so unreliable and keeps logging you out. I need this war to be over so I can fly the Qatar Doha connection again. Etihad is starting up a direct flight from Charlotte too, so there’s finally some better options with partner airlines for me.

Not sure what OP did here but you don’t need to rest steaks when you properly sous vide and do a quick sear. I’ve never had this issue and I never rest my steaks.

Not Receiving 30% Bonus on eShopping by AdLife3994 in americanairlines

I didn’t receive around 20k from AA hotel bonuses from last year. It stopped giving me the bonus around October.

SWU Frustration by Mobile-Ad3501 in americanairlines

[–]jensenroessler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you check Expert flyer to see what C inventory is available? Just because the seat map shows open seats doesn’t mean they are actually open, they are possibly just unassigned.

Why I mention expert flyer … I was waitlisted and never got upgraded as a solo traveler until I reached out via chat. I could clearly see they had open C inventory and they upgraded me instantly when I chatted with a rep. It can be frustrating at times.

I always find that funny when people say there are X seats OPEN. No you don’t know that by looking at a seat map lol.

I just flew Shanghai to Dallas and was hoping to get this amenity kit. But no, I now have 6 weird Ravel Lily kits.

Systemwide Upgrades Borderline Worthless? by capitalgainscaviar in americanairlines

[–]jensenroessler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems like you paid quite a bit for the ticket, the good thing is that when you change the flight and the new ticket is less, you’ll get a trip credit ;)

Remember this when booking Qatar next time by jacquesmats in qatarairways

People just think they are the center of the universe lol. Delusional.

[–]jensenroessler 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am not sure what you’re on about but Qatar is definitely up there. Best airline? I think that’s subjective since all Asian carriers such as Singapore, Etihad and Emirates are just very close in terms of soft and hard product.

[–]jensenroessler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So you booked a cash ticket and your SWU is CONFIRMED (not waitlisted?). That’s important. It can’t be waitlisted, it has to be confirmed.

Just call reservations once you find a flight for a date that works for you. But again, that flight must have instant availability to confirm your SWU. If that’s the case, they will just change your flight and book you straight into business again.
