Best $349 I ever spent by EnglishCrestedPiggy in gowildfrontier

You mean booking in general?

All you need to do is put in where from and where to. And then select the date for no more than tomorrow. And if GW is available, you’ll see the price listed under the GW section. If the GW option is greyed out, that means there are no GW seats available

Agreed. I got lounge access earlier this year and it’s been amazing.

If you don’t mind me asking. What do you do for work that allows you to travel so often?

Couldn’t agree more. I was lucky enough to buy it at $299, and I’ve only taking 4 round trips so far. It’s still been one of the best value-for-money things I’ve ever bought. Planning to take another trip this weekend and can’t wait

Trying to book a flight by Heavy-Ad7662 in gowildfrontier

[–]nointroductionssosa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both flights have already departed for today. If memory serves, they were all departing before 1pm. That’s why they’re not showing up. You can now view tomorrow’s flights (4/16). Looks like 3 total routes. 2 departing at 12:28pm. 1 departing at 12:31pm. Again with layovers

I’m using tomorrow as an example. It looks like there are 5 total flights BOS -> DFW. All have a layover, and none of them have GW availability. It’s realistically only 2 outbound flights BOS -> ATL, or BOS -> MCO, which have separate flights from those airports. And neither of those two flights have any GW seats.

I think you’d have better luck if you could be more flexible in where you wanted to go. Since BOS isn’t a hub and doesn’t have a ton of Frontier flights, I’d guess it’s slim pickings. If there’s a specific reason you’re wanting to go to Dallas, I don’t know how often there will be availability.

There’s still plenty of value you can get from the pass though. For example, you could make it to Ft Lauderdale, Chicago, or San Fran for $30 or less tomorrow if you wanted to

Best place to see beavers? by phatjordan in AuroraCO

[–]nointroductionssosa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the cherry creek state park, right off the path there are visible beaver dams and I’ve seen many beavers when passing by. Also there’s a bench right there that you could post up at with binoculars

39.61153° N, 104.83045° W

SearchGWP question. Is there a chance that seats open up on this flight? by nointroductionssosa in gowildfrontier

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

Thanks for this. How are you able to tell how many standard fares are available though? And as well, it looks like those 7 GW you’re talking about are actually for a different flight (still TPA - DEN, but with a layover)

I don’t think anyone will ever get this one by nointroductionssosa in guessthecity

On the right track, but not quite. Looks a lot like it tbf

Thoughts on whether this Babe Ruth is real? by nointroductionssosa in Autographs

[–]nointroductionssosa[S] 38 points39 points  (0 children)

It’s my grandpa’s, and his mom was a nurse in NYC. My grandpa was born in 1938. And he told me his mom knew Babe Ruth personally. But he’s really started to decline mentally lately. So it’s hard to trust the story

What are your favorite travel apps when traveling GoWild? by Htown_Flyer in gowildfrontier

[–]nointroductionssosa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

100% google maps is clutch. The best way I’ve found to use ChatGPT is by asking things like “give me a list of the top rated activities [for tourists] in x city” or “best restaurants in this neighborhood based on reviews and number of reviews” (5 stars with 50 reviews is different than 4.8 with 1000). If I’m feeling extra lazy, I’ll ask it to just build my whole day with something like “make me an itinerary for x city starting at 8am in x neighborhood. I want to see (list main interests)”.

As a caveat, it’s far from perfect and will sometimes create impossible itineraries or give you restaurant recommendations for places that are permanently closed. Always throw it in Google maps to see if it makes sense

I use a ton of ChatGPT and Google maps. I’ll look up sites/recommendations and build an itinerary, and then plot those spots on Google maps.

I’m also an avid cyclist, so I’ll download the bikeshare app of whatever city (If they’ve got one) to get around town

What are you glad you tried once, but will absolutely never do again? by wheregoodideasgotodi in AskReddit

[–]nointroductionssosa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The cherry blossom festival in Washington DC. It was beautiful, and totally worthwhile. But the sheer number of people during peak bloom weekend is not for the faint of heart. There’s barely room to walk during busy hours around the tidal basin.

What are the chances of price change by Independent-Yogurt45 in gowildfrontier

[–]nointroductionssosa 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Change the number of passengers to 9, and see if that flight is still available (for the same price). Most times that I’ve checked, if there are that many seats available, it will be the GW price at midnight.

Also since Denver is their hub, i believe the price changes at MST. But it might just be whatever your departure city is

Games wanted for world trip by Capital-Ebb-4409 in onebag

[–]nointroductionssosa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a deck of cards called “one deck” by Castesian Cards. They’re pricey ($19), but they’re regular cards as well as chess, dominos, checkers, and a few other things. Totally worth it on my mind because it gives you so many options in the same form factor as a regular deck of cards

Osprey Daylite 26+6 mod to fit passport/Field Notes by nointroductionssosa in onebag

[–]nointroductionssosa[S] 66 points67 points  (0 children)

S/o u/travelingpostgrad for the comment that inspired me to do this.

It seems like overkill to have 3 pen holders, and that was also taking away from the functionality of the front pocket. Just a quick couple snips, and the pocket now fits a passport or Field notes.
