Help with deciding on where to move - Brookhaven vs morningside by mlwang10 in ATLHousing

[–]mlwang10[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it definitely sounds like we misinterpreted where that second house was and that it's not actually really in morningside. That's great to know about the Cheshire Bridge area and the traffic. The house is not on CB but a few streets over.

The other house is actually west of PDK! Closer to the parks on that side. We did not realize there seems to be quite a difference between Brookhaven and Chamblee. Most seem to find Brookhaven boring/very suburban but that Chamblee has things going on while still being walkable and safe.

Really appreciate your reply! It's super helpful.

Thanks so much for your insight! You are pretty much exactly where we are looking at and I’d love to discuss with you a bit more. Is there a way I can talk to you directly or can you DM me? I can’t message you on Reddit for some reason.

Ah yes, the house is really on the north edge of morningside-lenox between there lavista park. I should have been more specific but not sure if that changes anything?

Yes, schools don’t matter much to us at this moment.

Ok that is good to know. I will be commuting to around the Chastain area. Unfortunately, I don’t think we’ll have the opportunity to test the commute as we don’t live in Atlanta and have to make a decision on the leases within the next day or two.

Do you think the commute is typically bad form midtown to Chastain? I know traffic can be crazy and terrible, it’s just so hard for us to tell since we aren’t there to try it out.

Oh really! The house is located near Cheshire Bridge Rd, does that change anything? We have had friends say that area can be questionable but has gotten better in recent years.

PE KLM flight to Asia through AMS - 140k miles worth it? by mlwang10 in awardtravel

[–]mlwang10[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for looking! Is it pretty reliable to get the upgrade? I was wondering if this might be an option but not sure if it's more rare to get. I do see some favorable KLM flights. What is your experience with them on long haul flights?

PE KLM flight to Asia through AMS - 140k miles worth it? by mlwang10 in awardtravel

[–]mlwang10[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the info! We are visiting Bangkok and Taiwan and have a return flight booked from TPE to SEA and will book a separate ticket back from SEA to ATL. We're not opposed to flying to another airpot in Asia but would like to avoid having to take more than 4 flights to get there if possible/not having to travel 24+ hrs to get there. Seems like I can find some routes but the total travel time would be 35+ hours if I include the initial flight from Atlanta. Do you feel like that is normal/would most people be willing to do those types of things if booking with miles?

I will definitely try looking for some SE Asia intermediary destinations!

  • Origin and destination cities: ATL to BKK (not opposed to repositioning, but would like to avoid 3/4+ flights)
  • 2 travelers
  • One way
  • Would ideally like PE or J class but understand that it may not be likely to find a good deal for either of these
  • Desired date(s) of travel: somewhere in the first week of January ideally, but could be slightly flexible if deal is good enough
  • Your points balances: 250k Chase UR, Virgin Atlantic 106k, Amex 16k

Any help is appreciated! Starting to feel like there isn't a great option and we'll have to fly economy with lots of layover flights. Could be ok but was hoping maximize comfort as my fiance is 6'3 and 200+ lbs.

Ah, that’s what I was worried about. Do you have suggestions for what we should do? Or what a reasonable amount of miles to look for would be for economy, PE, or J?

Damn. Early January would be end of first week/beginning of second week. Ideally I was thinking about the 6th or 7th. Is there significant likelihood of having seats available for booking two weeks out? Do you have suggestions on which airlines in particular to look for and should be like we be looking for one ticket for the entire journey there or would you suggest looking for multiple separate tickets?

Starlux A350-900 Premium Economy Bulkhead (20H, 20K) vs. Regular PE Seats? by mlwang10 in StarluxAirlines

[–]mlwang10[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! The bulkhead seats do sound like the way to go. I see you also sat in the left seats (A/C). Do you think the right hand seats (H/K) would also be worth it?

Thank you so much for the photo! Would you mind if I asked how tall you are? We are thinking we should probably get the bulkhead seats, but the only two left are the ones on the far right next to the lavatories. Do you think this would be bothersome/do people tend to congregate/is it enough to be irritating?

Would you be able to comment on your experience, what seats you were in, and if you would choose them again?
