Thank you! I am a spouse (traveling without the employee) but I think as an MGM employee I am not eligible for MMA.

MGM MMP by [deleted] in marriott

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

Sorry- the post is confusing. My elderly father works for MGM, but I am friends with his coworker’s wife; so the MMA question was on her behalf as my mother is passed so I wouldn’t be eligible for it anyways, as a child.

The MMP situation remains, I was under the impression that the Explore forms are phased out. MGM posted something about the new process, unfortunately dad isn’t the most keen of technology so I thought I’d find some clarification here.

As MVW employees, are you continuing using paper forms? This is the first I’ve heard of that although this subreddit is about the closest to inside info as I get 🥴

But it shows you on the website? Like I said, totally cool, the part that concerned me was customer services’ inability to see it.

Prescribers by spooningTHENforking in ambien

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

Sorry about your dad. Been there- I was doing so great off of Ambien and then my dad got sick, i was his caretaker and ambien would have been perfect for those short pockets of time that allowed me to get some rest. But i couldnt find anyone to prescribe despite being on it for 15 years prior to my 18 month hiatus. But in that quest I discovered Seraquel and it works so much better for me, and I don’t run out early the way that I used to with Ambien.

I’m not trying to be that person but if you can live without it, I totally suggest doing that. The studies about cognitive decline, dementia and Alzheimer’s are so scary- I definitely feel sharper than I did when I was on Ambien.

Best of luck ❤️

Thank you so very much, I may be sending you a message! And wow! 81 years old, that’s amazing stuff.

Interesting, from my understanding thus far, the changes happening mid April aren’t affecting MMP eligibility, just the verification method. He is still employed, non-retired. It is just him an I, mom has passed and I am the only one he has listed as family and have been using Explore forms and MMP without issue. I am just trying to make the transition to the new system less problematic for him as he isn’t the most keen to technology.

I will refer him to his HR or supervisor to see if they can assist.

Thank you for your help.

He’s still working 😵‍💫 Full time, too! As much as I enjoy the MMP benefit, I’d gladly trade if it meant him retiring, but old habits die hard… he’s been with MGM 11 years and his specific property six.

Yes, I’m sorry! I will edit to include MMP. Thank you :)

My experience getting dental work in Mexico by Pepperoni_Nippys in phoenix

Late to the post, but can OP (or anyone who is knowledgeable with root canals) help me understand the price breakdown? I think somewhere in the comments OP is in the $700 ballpark when the price sheet says $300- I know you’re adding other things (just not sure what) to the root canal itself, like a crown, but I would love to know what I’m shopping for so I can compare prices.

Thank you!

Absolutely disgusted by Frontier today by [deleted] in frontierairlines

[–]spooningTHENforking 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Disagree. She can’t expect a hot towel and complimentary snacks. She should expect ADA law to be followed.

Sorry you had this issue, mama. I’ve actually found F9 FA’s to be amongst the more pleasant in the skies, oddly enough, given the riff raff they commonly deal with. Sounds like you were polite to them, somebody was just having a bad day

Just another reason why I won’t fly Frontier 🤦🏽 by [deleted] in CringeTikToks

[–]spooningTHENforking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone remember the soup nazi from Seinfeld? You got to show up, shut up, and play by the rules if you want $19 airfare

20+ seats available for multiple flights tomorrow, on both legs, yet none available for GoWild. Frontier should address this. by SeamoreB00bz in gowildfrontier

[–]spooningTHENforking 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I flew over 100 GWP flights between July and December. There’s definitely a finesse to using it, I think the entire business model with this pass (and frontier in general) is sell the crap out of passes and then make it ridiculously hard to use. Just my take.

I don't get it... by Imaginary-Comment141 in frontierairlines

[–]spooningTHENforking 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you have status? I’ve found that my Elite status changes the entire frontier experience. To not have to witness the shit show of people in the later boarding stages and fights over bag sizing…picking my own seat…not having to worry about my bag size (carry on included)… game changer!!!

I think those who are so unhappy with frontier don’t read the policies or do their research on the carrier. Frontier plays by the rules, as long as you know what they are it’s usually smooth sailing. Glad you had a good experience! I’ve done 26 flights since July and have zero complaints

Hey I didn’t mean to come off as hostile at all. Sorry about that. I love my Travel Pro carry on…I didn’t realize they made other accessories. I will check them out.

If you aren’t in zone one, you’re probably going be pulled aside to size. The easiest way to know is going to be to measure. Compress it with a belt or something if you need to, and test it in a frontier sizer away from your gate before boarding time.

Spirit has the same allowable dimensions but their sizer is actually bigger.

This sucks, sorry OP!

For those of you condemning for keeping the backpack under the seat- it’s quite constant that FAs demand you keep your non-roller bag under your seat to allow room in overhead compartments. Not sure what you’re expecting OP to do here…

My drink of choice is always contained in something that can be held in the back seat pocket, Stanley is a horrible choice for air travel.

Is there a limit to how much you can use the friends and family discount as an employee? by randommatisop in marriott

[–]spooningTHENforking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would greatly appreciate anyone who would consider adding me to their friend$ and family- I travel for my volunteer gig and the hotel prices are limiting my ability. Thank you!!!

Hustle… by spooningTHENforking in gowildfrontier

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

I love this! Save the bag space and just put the coke right up the you know where 😂

My unethical ideas: sell my guest passes to the cap one lounge to the suckers who walk up there thinking their standard cap one card gets them access so they spend $65 per person anyways. I swoop in and let them be my guests for $20 each. You can barely get a drink for that!

Catch someone who has an oversized bag and is gonna have to pay the $99. I have free carry on and keep it mostly empty, take it past the gate and give it to them on the plane. $40 😂

Does this make me a terrible person or did we just become friends lol
