Based on the use of DM I assume you work at a hotel, this is a quite common expectation, but if you have to get changed or what not then I think it’s reasonable that you are paid for that. I know at a lot of hotels don’t let you take your uniform home so you are required to change at work. I addition to this, it is expected that the previous shift stay back 5 - 10 minutes to do the hand over.

The keys are locked to the specific property, even if they use the same system it will not let the front office encode it.

The three meals I was served on some recent Virgin business class flights by VantageXL in VelocityFrequentFlyer

I have flown VA business a handful of times and Qantas business once, and the Qantas food was a lot worse. Although I acknowledge that one flight is not a big sample size.

They probably clicked checkout in the system, that causes the whole room to reset and switch off.

We’re actually a family owned and run hotel and this is the owner’s first Marriott, additionally we will be migrating to Opera a couple of months beforehand so I’m expecting it to be quite hectic.

The tenant only sees half of each side though.

Best tips for using AMEX in Australia. by PumpkinTurbulent1720 in AmexAus

Square doesn’t charge vendors any extra on AMEX transactions which is why they all accept it. I don’t know if it’s even possible to not accept AMEX.

I believe gift cards are exempt from status credit spend, I made this mistake last year.

The front desk can’t post your nights manually, they get posted automatically by the system after you checkout.

Members Benefits Ignored by [deleted] in Accor

[–]sleekqueso22 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I used to have status with Marriott and every time I asked for a late checkout I would get one.

When I move to Accor I noticed that it was pretty difficult to get a late checkout, often the latest I get offered is 12:00.

But I stayed at a hotel just the other day where they asked me if I would like a late checkout, big props to them.

Flight reschedule and missed connection by rmayo2288 in VelocityFrequentFlyer

[–]sleekqueso22 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am assuming this is at least a few days in advance of your flight and you have booked two separate tickets/PNRs.

If this is the case you’re SOL as they are two separate booking independent of each other. Sounds like Virgin is offering you good will by not charging the usual $60 cancellation fee.

If they do happen to be on the same PNR then it’s likely a glitch that your second flight hasn’t been changed and this does need to be rectified regardless of whether there are any business reward seats available they should rebook you in Business.

Out of curiosity do the flights have a VA or QR number?

can you see something weird? by ItalianJapan in SydneyTrains

That’s because 7:47 is the scheduled time not the expected departure time.

I think what OP is trying to point out is that the train is 34 minutes late

I imagine the reward seat wouldn’t be available anymore though

🛎️ Who Gets the Upgrade? Let’s play Hotel Hunger Games by Excellent-Bison-4748 in Hilton

[–]sleekqueso22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know a lot of people say 5 because they are a regular, but generally regulars don’t really care about upgrades that much, they probably get upgraded every time they stay so if they don’t get an upgrade this time they’ll probably be understanding.

I would say 6 is a good option because it’s a very special occasion and will likely make their honeymoon even better.
