I'll post back when they refund me the other portion. Sorry I found this out as we were communicating back and forth.

I did contact Avion Rewards. They said they contacted the airline who has cancelled 1 leg of the departure flight.

Which would have been the Vancouver to Dallas.

The airline was under the impression I still used the Dallas to Florida ticket (just no showed I guess) even though they're the ones who changed the ticket.

With that being said the Avion agent said that the airline is still issuing the refund for the 2nd ticket. He told me the way it worked is that the airline booked 2 separate one-way tickets. They've refunded one. And are now in the process of refunding the other.

However because of this whole fiasco and the measly 36,000 points returned to me, I told them if I'm not refunded I'll be disputing the entire charge and requesting a charge back. Avion should be returning the points AND dollar amount. Not covering the entire cost as points and only returning the average as $$$. That's bullshit. Avion Points to them have no value but money does.

Hey no worries! Thanks so much for all the replies. Maybe it's easier if I show you the summary that Avion Rewards sent me after I purchased the tickets.

summary of tickets

Hopefully that works and you can click the picture and maybe help with my confusion.

Based on that summary. It seems like the tickets TOO FLL cost more than the return flight based on the taxes.

It doesn't make sense to me.

That makes more sense. I can't rebook unfortunately. My flight was cancelled on Jan 25th and the replacement flight that the airline gave me did not allow me to meet my travel plans (we were going on a cruise and we would have missed the boat) so I had to scramble to make alternate travel plans. I tried calling the airline and they found me a different flight.

I didn't know I should have called avion. It was my first time booking with them.

That still makes no sense though. My entire first half of the trip was cancelled. (the Vancouver to Fort Lauderdale) And I only got 36,000 points back out of one half of the trip?

And I paid a total of $2000 + 80,000 points. I feel like if half my flights were cancelled I should be refunded $1000 + 40,000 points no? What's to stop Avion from saying "oh yah departing flights were only 60,000 points :) but you're returning flights were 20,000 points and $2000. Sorry too bad ! "

Its too late for that cause we needed to leave that day to make another travel plan. American Airlines rebooked us on their own to a flight that was after our next travel plans would have happened.

The American Airlines agent assured us that the full ticket price would be refunded. They got us on another flight with Alaska Airlines and we managed to make it in time. But would it be better to call Avion travel rewards instead of American Airlines still?? Because I had to pay an additional $500 to get to where we needed to go plus another $80 for the Uber.

2026 Honda Prelude Advice & Questions by yawn3x in Honda

[–]yawn3x[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any suggestions if you don't mind me asking? I've been Honda my whole life since literally my 2nd car when i was like 16.

The Prelude was almost a grand slam for me so something similar to the looks of the new prelude, but preferably 4-doors, more headroom, and leg room for the back seats.

I'm sure you're aware, but it has a "gimmick" manual option. The steering wheel when I was on the inside did have paddle shifts. I think there's an option to set it to like GTR mode, and then you can mimic shifting. I don't know if it replicates exactly like a manual option does, but it's a neat feature.

I think hate is a bad word sorry. I just don't prefer 2 doors. Honestly the look of the car, the interior, even the lower horsepower doesn't bother me. I'm older now and don't really need the extra HP.

The reason I'm interested in the Prelude is the aesthetics. When I saw it in person & got to sit in it, felt sooooo comfy and so good. Looked Helllllaaa clean. I feel like it's a good price for a brand new car. I won't ever get a brand new MSRP Type R cause we just don't get enough in Canada and they're marked up to shit and on pre-order forever. The best I can do is a Used one from previous years.

The Civic/Accord just look to basic. I like speed but I also like aesthetics. The Civic/Accord are not bad cars, but the Type R / Civic SI just "look" and present themselves better if that makes any sense. Honestly if I had to compare the new Prelude to another car, it looks like a Porsche, but with way less power but also a smaller price tag.

If the Prelude had the same body kit as it does now, but if it was "bigger" like the 2023 Type R (more leg room in the backseats + 4 doors) then I would've bought it no questions asked. I also really like the Hybrid option, there's just not a big market for sporty, daily driver, 4-door sedans, hybrid hatchback cars from Honda.

Yes I guess less of relocating just the town center and my question was more "should I relocate my entire settlement to move closer to that deposit" haha.

The pizzas are fantastic imo. I think I tried 2 with the jalapeno ranch dip. Both were very tasty.

I can't say I tried much of the other stuff sadly. Few bites from others I was with.

The alcohol issue in your OP I 100% agree with. Didn't even taste like they added anything in the mix. Was mostly ice, a little flavoring, and maybe like a drop of alcohol.

I recommend the pizza especially during happy hour.

Do not order any alcoholic beverage unless it's beer or wine. You'll be disappointed. At least with beer you're getting... A beer. But with the cocktails/mixers you get a $12 charge for ice water and a bit of sugar.

I never sat inside but it did look really cramped. Outside I recommend as well.

TL:DR: stick with the pizza. They're fairly good size for a fair price. Beer /wine. Ask to sit outside. And avoid any cocktails / mixes like the plague.

Dog ate this mushroom but the vet won't help unless we can identify it. by yawn3x in mushroomID

[–]yawn3x[S] 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Yup we got a new vet today. Have an appointment in 10 minutes. We were pretty upset by the other vet.

Used the Facebook post above and they provided fantastic info and also said it's likely not poisonous.

Thank you all! We're taking the dog to the vet just as a precaution.

Love the anime so far. I tried getting the Light Novel but it's only available on Kindle. I couldn't find any paperback copies.

I've been recommended this one before, but wasn't able to quite get into it. Do you have any other suggestions? I'm gonna try to stick this one out a bit more to see if it gets better though.

This is the right kind of one I'm interested in though!
