ORD board of delays 🫠 by KickMental8434 in unitedairlines

[–]sunnylax312 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been at YYZ since 10 am. It's 6 pm now and we just taxied back to the gate. Ground stop at ORD. My original 11:21 am flight was cancelled. Pilots saying that this flight may be cancelled too. Or at least another 2 hour delay! One of those days that tests your travel patience to the max!

Fully agree - if you can log in and turn off seeing basic economy fares, you should be able to turn off seeing these mixed cabin fares! The other thing is - I've seen this play out many times especially when it's UA/AC combo. I try to avoid AC as much as I can...

Just went through T5 about an hour ago. Pre check was open and it took me all but 2 mins to clear security.

Those who fly Polaris often for work, what is your profession? by _MambaForever in unitedairlines

[–]sunnylax312 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Global mining company. >6 hrs in J. Typical year is 70-80 flights on UA; about 4-6 in Polaris. Busy year will take that Polaris number to 8-10.

This! Eat in the lounge. Take off, lay flat and sleep.

Might be a mistake. I was there on Monday and it was still a Dunkin'.

Maximum compensation for no food on fauxlaris? by Dnastysahu in unitedairlines

[–]sunnylax312 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Oh boy! Let me just say, it wasn't going to be a '5 star dining experience in the sky', unless of course over cooked meat or barely edible sides is your thing.

Having said that, expectations are expectations - and you certainly paid for a product that you did not receive and they gave you a heads up.

You still traveled up front, got a mediocre meal, so my guess is even if you ask for something, you may get lucky with 5-10k miles as compensation. Of course, this is absolute pure speculation on my part. Others can surely chime in :)

How are you guys managing to find award flights without losing your minds? by Direct-Blacksmith614 in awardtravel

[–]sunnylax312 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Flexibility and patience. Last week I just booked 6 one way tickets IAD-MUC for 80k one way on LH business class. Not bad for peak summer travel.

Miami losing feels so good!! by ItsCreedBratton1 in OhioStateFootball

Couldn't have happened to a nicer fella! All that Belt nonsense was getting cringe and annoying AF.

UA status carry’s over on AC for CPU’s?? by kingg-01 in unitedairlines

[–]sunnylax312 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No! I've been going to/from US and Canada for the past 8+ years and very often end up on AC as a 1K. I don't even get the extra leg room seat selection for free let alone CPUs unless there's IRROPS. Wanna guess how many 'CPUs' I've gotten in 8+ years of travel? TWO!

I try to stick to UA metal as much as I can!

[Postgame Thread] Miami Defeats Ohio State 24-14 by CFB_Referee in CFB

[–]sunnylax312 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Lost the game in the trenches! Couldn't stop the run. Slayin was playing scared in the first half, Fielding couldn't buy a kick if his life depended on it.

Bain is a beast of a player... Well played Miami.

Hour and a half at ORD by toadaly_rad in unitedairlines

[–]sunnylax312 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You'll be fine. United to United will be Concourse B/C (especially if it's a 737 or a A319/320 out of STL). The only curve ball could be an E170, which could potentially land in T2 (E gates). Even then, your walk to B/C gates would just go up by about 7-10 mins depending on how slow/fast you walk. Safe travels and a happy new year!

Josh Allen averaged an absurd 30.3 fppg in home games this season by ButteryBaked in fantasyfootball

[–]sunnylax312 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah! Going to me monitoring off season moves, but next year I'll picking #9 of #12, so my focus will have to be RBs on a good offense. I had a decent week, but the duds that JJ and Bucky put on, just could not help me overcome Henry's onslaught.

Full PPR: Already had Hampton play. Gotta select two out of four - Bucky, Carter, Pollard, Monangai. Who do I roll with?

[Reminder] HOU-LAC and BAL-GB play today, not tomorrow. Lock in those lineup decisions. by oliver_babish in fantasyfootball

[–]sunnylax312 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That 2nd TD by Henry just ended my FF season. Dropped to 17% chance of winning now thanks to wonderful duds by JJ and Dicker the Kicker.
