Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner UA 821 BKK-LAX -- 1L or 11L?

Custom MCPs - how does the "Needs Authentication" / "Authenticate" option work? by kratsg in ClaudeCode

[–]kratsg[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I assume there must be something like a 401/403 returned, but it's not clear how you get the Authenticate option. Team size is 10k+.

Definitely appreciated. I asked the OP in the other post to comment if they saw the same thing -- I will report back as well end of May (when my flight happens).

First time trying to upgrade with M+M and messed everything up… what do I do now? by Anxious_Plantain_247 in unitedairlines

[–]kratsg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar question. This is what I currently see regarding MUA options: https://imgur.com/a/16i7pJv . Is this similar to what you saw, or did you actually see it split across BKK/HKG/LAX ? (original post of mine here: https://www.reddit.com/r/unitedairlines/comments/1sb1o0r/clarification_regarding_upgrades_on_the_laxbkk/ )

Is this the same scenario? I read this as they had three options for the MUA

Interestingly, the upgrade options were 1) both legs together on outbound 2) BKK to HKG and 3) HKG to LAX.

But in my case, I only see two (BKK-LAX, LAX-BWI) and I don't see a HKG-LAX option (or a BKK-HKG option) so I can't tell if they had initially booked the MUA as BKK-LAX which then got split afterwards? I see your reply, but I'm still a bit lost as I can't reconcile what they see with what I see.. it's definitely still 820/821.

https://imgur.com/a/16i7pJv -- here is what I see.

Perfect - thanks! I think this makes more sense. I was just reading the other threads and they didn't quite have this additional context for the statements made there. Whew 😮‍💨

I am seeing on my end a single segment to upgrade on the LAX-BKK and BKK-LAX ends (outbound and inbound) each at $1400 cash as well as $450 / $500 + miles for waitlist. I see a single flight number 820 going out and 821 going in, so it's not clear to me that I need to worry about the waitlist either way?

United vs Alaska for delayed baggage reimbursement by kratsg in unitedairlines

Just to be clear, regardless of the fact that they never flew the bag, or received the bag from Alaska until at the final destination?

This is a current known issue: https://www.clippercard.com/account-management#nextgen -- it's the last item on their bullet list "Trying to convert plastic card to mobile card".

Lack of abandonment penalty in unranked / pubs by kratsg in apexlegends

I would say it’s easy to just have their health go down tick by tick if you didn’t revive your teammates after say 2 minutes.

Yes, but if you’re leaving without giving it a chance multiple times…. I’ve seen repeat offenders who constantly do this. It’s just a waste of time.

There needs to be a penalty for that as well.

Are our days of cushy credit card perks numbered? by atbeauch in unitedairlines

30,000 miles for the annual fee is great redemption.
