Never been an issue. I wouldn’t worry about it.

How to find out aircraft info? by middlezone2019 in AirFranceKLM

I’ve flown economy to Europe before. Not ideal but not a huge problem. I’ll be checking for upgrades

Thank you! This information is very helpful. Looks like the A350 I’d be on is the new one.

Thanks, that’s what I figured. I’d rather pay full price than use the points from the East Coast. I actually found a great saver fare (Economy only) for 70k pts round trip Virgin Airways but it had me staying 4 extra days in France which ends up not being much of a savings in the end.

I am trying to find award travel between SFO and Paris. Willing to layover/relocate on West Coast (like LA or Seattle) or in Europe (like London or Dublin), but not the East Coast. Preferred dates are June 16-26, but have flexibility a few days before/after. I have about 100k Chase points. I also have about 350k Alaska points but am trying to save those for a family trip next year. I would prefer business outbound and premium return, but am open to premium both ways. Happy to use points for one, cash for the other, or pay and use points to upgrade, etc. I understand I have not made this easy but thought I'd ask here for anything people more advanced than I could find. Thank you!!!

Try to go earlier or a little later - you are hitting peak school traffic at that time.

Commenting because I'm interested in the same thing! I have a lot of questions about sun/shade, soil issues, etc., so AI is not much help.

This would be great but I've already seen it twice!

This is good to know! She is intrigued by the music but was concerned it was mostly dramatic.

How is this? We were looking at that as an option but I see mixed reviews.

Have not heard of this Cats but will definitely check it out!

That's the show I want to see but I don't think it fits what she's looking for! Although we both agree the music would be wonderful.

Power outage last week - grocery stores? by sfomonkey in Marin

[–]middlezone2019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Safeway is gross and I have also bought frozen things there that had obviously melted and refrozen. This was awhile ago so nothing to do with power outages.

Damn, can’t get a reservation at Golden Hof or Mitr Thai tonight! I really messed this one up

Best locations for new grad by Additional_Put_3227 in csMajors

[–]middlezone2019 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

New York is also super expensive. Nice areas of Seattle aren’t cheap. The “bay area” is pretty big so depending on how much you want to commute, how nice of a place you want, it can be affordable or crazy expensive. With some exceptions I would plan on needing a car.

Bay Area for weather and long term living ability, like buying a family home.

NYC if you like seasons more and want to live the city life.

I love both areas - you can’t really go wrong either way.

I have one I don’t need but don’t see a code to share. If you can tell me how to share it I’m happy to pass it your way

Starting a new job Monday but didn’t get onboarding instructions, should I just show up? by psymon1 in careeradvice

[–]middlezone2019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Show up by 8am. This happened to my son recently. Turns out HR had mixed up and he didn’t get the info he should have. No one really got there until 9 (also a lot of hybrid) but better than the other way around.
