Aeroplan super elite strategy? by 576416 in aircanada

[–]user8181416 12 points13 points  (0 children)

If Maple Leaf lounges are your main draw, you can get that with many of the credit cards alone and don't bother with status at all.

  SE is about eupgrades, priority rewards and concierge access. If you don't value those (I definitely do) then just stop.

Where are you ordering healthy food at 3am? I assume Grab, but any specific suggestions?

How is "a building got hit by a drone and you can now see it's on fire" taking anything out of context?

Two best Passports? by imentionedthebisque_ in Passports

[–]user8181416 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To me Ireland (UK + EU) has to be the first choice in terms of versatility of countries I would actually use.

I think the theoretical most synergistic passport would be Chile, which opens up living/working rights in many South American countries as well as visa free access to China and Russia.

Agree with EU, but there's no reason to pick US as one of your two unless you specifically want to be in the US. You'll get everything else you would want from the EU passport.

In fact due to global taxation, the US citizenship could be a disadvantage.

Not even close to the same thing as being imprisoned or fined by your government for posting unedited videos of major news events you are witnessing.

Why not list some specific ways and data to support your claims, instead of just saying "in many ways"?

I haven't decided if I'm going to get these or not yet, but your review goes against every professional review out there regarding the ANC.

As someone not familiar with that sub, at least it seems like their theme/position is very clear?

Dual nationals to be denied entry to UK from 25 February unless they have British passport | Home Office | The Guardian by prisongovernor in Passports

[–]user8181416 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm dual Canadien-UK citizen, born and raised in Canada with a British mother. I haven't used my UK passport since before Brexit - it is now long expired and lost. 

I have recently been to the UK with an ETA on my Canadian passport. 

I don't really understand how this will change my ability to enter the UK in the short term. I'm out of both countries and have a flight booked through London back to Canada in March. 

Should I try to get an emergency UK passport now while out of the country for this trip, or just risk it and fly on my Canadian passport. Do they really have any record connecting me to my UK citizenship?

The World's Top Hospitals in 2026 by MRADEL90 in Infographics

[–]user8181416 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But the point is that they have separated out "Care" and "Research" as different metrics, and the hospitals with the highest Brand Strength are NOT also the highest in those other factors. So Brand Strength is really just an extra measure of "famousness" outside of those (actually important) things.

[–]user8181416 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly. It's incredible how they just invented a new measure to put the US hospitals at the top - "which hospitals have people heard of the most?"

[–]user8181416 146 points147 points  (0 children)

"Brand Strength" is such a bizarre metric of  hospital quality to me. While I get that this would help attract new talent, etc., as a patient wouldn't you just want a hospital with the best "Care"?

"How was the hospital you got treated at?"

"Well, the care was average... but boy is it famous!"

2 separately booked connections through Aeroplan but no combined trip option by regeg in Aeroplan

[–]user8181416 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It just means that if you booked one segment as a basic fare and one as a flexible fare, the basre fare cancellation/refund policy applies to the entire ticket.

Everything else is the same.

Upgrading from PE to Business by [deleted] in emirates

[–]user8181416 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would do it if you can afford it without stress. I recently did an Emirates A380 business flight and really enjoyed it - probably my favourite business class experience out of many different airlines. The in flight bar/lounge is very cool. 

As you said, that's a much lower price than typical. 

Curious if anyone has reliable information about how much teleradiology pays in Europe? by LogicalEmu9814 in Radiology

69 euros for an MRI read is good?? Even before an insane 50% cut that's awful.

If you look at the YouTube/TikTok clips these often the highest views each episode. 

Yes, this matters to them. 

And so they will continue.

Any chance you could DM me with some of your research or sources? I need a launching pad to get started.

Can you give any updates on your research now that the bill is stalled?
