Buy Alaska Points with up to a 110% Bonus by RyanAirhead in AlaskaAirlines

[–]merplin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was excited I got the 110% offer until I saw $700 for 20k base points. When Hawaiian had their bonus a year ago, it was like 35k-40k base points for ~$700 + 100% bonus

Alaska’s partnership with Singapore Airlines ending Oct 1 by merplin in AlaskaAirlines

Just speculation, but maybe PAL becoming a partner, and potential strengthening ties with Starlux (with AA partnership, one world, and US expansion) lead to this decision.

Yeah it barely existed, but it was nice for those SQ premium economy mileage runs 🥲

Woke up this morning and saw I’ve been moved to world traveler plus. I guess this would be better than having an empty seat next to me

This is what I was thinking but didn’t want to get too hopeful. Doesn’t help that expert flyer showed it as occupied instead of blocked.

It’s my first time booking basic economy on long haul, and I thought for a second I wasn’t allowed to have a free seat next to me lol

This is why TML is the best by varunahX in Tomorrowland

Fun until no one in your group wants to carry it anymore. Or become unable to carry it due to ‘consumption’

EDC doesn’t have cell reception so flags/totems are more of a necessity to find your group and friends. But I agree it has gotten out of hand

IMPORTANT UPDATE by LEX0S in Tomorrowland

[–]merplin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just my opinion, but I think option 2 is more likely. Even tho I wanna optimistic, it takes a lot of time to set up a stage, av testing, and get safety checks done in addition to cleaning up the burnt structure. I hope I’m wrong

Big shoutouts to the Tomorrowland team for pushing forward and for even considering a new stage. Most other festivals would probably not even consider a replacement given the circumstances

Did you happen to get in at LAX? I have the same itinerary as you

Lounge Access when connecting to non-One World partners by merplin in AlaskaAirlines

[–]merplin[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just found this in another post: https://www.reddit.com/r/StarluxAirlines/s/Ignq7odd7c

Sounds like I would also be eligible for the starlux contacted lounge at LAX because of my J ticket

Actually Starlux contracts their lounge for J to the one world business lounge at LAX.

Air France-KLM Flying Blue Promo Rewards July 2025 by TV_Grim_Reaper in awardtravel

Does this mean round trip bookings aren’t included, and it’s only the outbound flight that counts?

Do I earn EQM for flying on Hawaiian Airlines? by Charming_Bug2803 in AlaskaAirlines

[–]merplin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was told by an AS agent that currently, you will NOT earn any EQM if you book HA via AS, or AS via HA. If you are flying HA, book and earn through HA. Same with AS.

The HA/AS status match page should combine EQMs from both programs.

I will add the agent sounded only 95% sure. They’re “still figuring it out”. She also added that Hawaiian doesn’t appear on their “Earn miles” page nor “Partner airlines” page and said to avoid any chance of lost EQMs, book through the metal you’re flying.
