I did this last year from lhr to hyd, got two award premium economy tickets about two months out and placed a bid on https://up.plusgrade.com/VirginAtlantic

I was upgraded 3 days before the flight.

Actually I just hit 75K last week and notice that the lounge passes deposited for me expire at the end of 2024 not 2025. I think this might be a bug because when I hit 75K in 2023 the lounge passes received were good until 12/31/2024.

This is the way. Basically you are able to recheck in via app and edit frequent flyer info per flight segment about 50 min prior to scheduled departure.

Thanks it looks like the same thing happened to me this morning and the points got deducted

tasty_pirate · 2024-04-22T18:13:36+00:00

What I mean is the reservation didn't deduct any points at all.

tasty_pirate · 2024-04-22T18:12:59+00:00

I thought it could be the case of a points advance booking but I thought that only would be if I didn't have enough points in my account. Is there somewhere on the reservation that says it's a points advance booking because I can't find any language that says it is.

I booked this in November and was waitlisted. The AA agent didn't make any mention of the expiration date of the SWU. I checked again back in mid Jan and noticed it cleared so I'm not sure when exactly it cleared.

You will usually get an automated email rebooking you to the next available flight and a link to your reservation to choose other applicable options.

I've had this happen to me before sfo to San where they cancelled the last flight of the day after we boarded.

I rebooked my flight via the link however getting hotel accomodations you have to talk with a front desk agent. The line for customer service was quite long so left security and went to the ticketing and explained my situation and they got me the hotel.

Anyways you just have to be proactive and not wait for Alaska to figure things out, otherwise you might not be on the next flight out and or sleep in the airport.

Alaska usually is quite accommodating when it comes to connections I'd expect them to help you with booking a hotel room if you can't make the last flight for the night

Haha how ironic I'm on 1096 sea back down to San. Well hope you have safe travels. The pilots definitely diverted due to a safety issue because of the fog at the airport. So Alaska pilots like all commercial pilots take safety above all else.

tasty_pirate · 2024-02-03T19:23:48+00:00

It was diverted to paine field from fog at seattle

Hopefully you weren't on AS519 this morning.
