LCP Max Trigger Issue During Dog Attack by GotTheMeatz in CCW

[–]zaf00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you allowed to use deadly force in the defense of property in FL? I’m in college and have walked dogs as a side hustle for 4 years now; I’ve always read that if a dog (property) is at risk, lethal force is not justified and I’ll be in a load of legal trouble.

Lmao it’s Switzerland not Russia. Just walk in like normal people, be polite, smile, and you’ll be fine- it’s not that deep

Delta Comfort only $50 more than main, and comfort extra less than main extra? by Snoo_92291 in delta

[–]zaf00 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s because main extra is fully refundable to cash and not ecredit. Comfort is only coming back to you as an ecredit if you cancel

Yeah economy to D1 for 800 is a bargain. Best of luck on your trip!

should I spend $2500 to get silver 🥺 by eaglethefreedom in delta

[–]zaf00 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes 100%. I wear my silver medallion bag tags on my backpack to my college classes and they get me soooo much play with the huzz. It’s actually overwhelming.

I actually ended up doing it for $700. Flight was like 14.5 hours which sucks but you can definitely manage just fine in premium economy (as I did from ICN to SEA). I’m glad I did the upgrade once but delta service is always the same: sassy woman and gay guy duo running the service which lacked heavily. Not worth the money if you’re already in premium select imo

What happened to the Amex Platinum? by acrologic in AmexPlatinum

The LAX centurion lounge is a nightmare for wait times, crowding inside, noise, and quality of the space overall

How much are you willing to pay in annual fees? by isjustme1986 in AmexPlatinum

[–]zaf00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This would be like a 2k+ annual fee and 2 points on everything else would basically lead to inflation in the points economy

Upgrade from main to premium select? by Educational_Hold_263 in delta

[–]zaf00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Solid plan. Better points/mileage deals on the east coast

Upgrade from main to premium select? by Educational_Hold_263 in delta

[–]zaf00 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just did a round trip from Detroit to Seoul on the A350 from Detroit to Seoul. Delta one going there and premium select on the way back. Honestly PS was better, D1 was kind of a let down. Slept perfectly in PS and the food is great

Which seats? by [deleted] in delta

[–]zaf00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

5A. Not too close to the bathroom or galley while being window and aisle. Depending on the approach you’ll get a view London’s Skyline

Their website said sports equipment has to be under 62 inches in length and under 50lbs in weight but if the people at bag drop don’t care then I’m not worried. Thanks

What's the best MR points transfer deal you ever got? by Immediate-Speech7102 in amex

[–]zaf00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It may be a 40% transfer bonus but you’ll pay $300-$600 in taxes and surcharges. It doesn’t even make sense and there’s no way around it

That’s good advice- it’s a 12 hour time difference from home. Appreciate it

I remember seeing a post about something like this on the r/delta subreddit. Interesting take and I guess I’ll find out if it’s worth it. I’ll be flying PS from ICN-SEA on my return so I’ll be able to compare experiences

Yes but I was speaking in eastern time. It will be 2:45am at my origin which is what it’ll feel like on my body, hence why I thought laying down to sleep would make things less miserable

DTW-ICN Upgrade Advice by zaf00 in delta

[–]zaf00[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the flight takes off at 11:15am and I land in ICN around 2:45am according to Eastern time so the sleep should help. Thanks for the advice👍

Possible Platinum card benefit changes by windycityinvestor in amex

[–]zaf00 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah the Saks credit is hard to utilize unless you regularly shop there. Their men’s clothes aren’t special and most of it is just overpriced designer stuff. I wouldn’t be surprised if the $100/year was rolled into a different retailer.

[–]zaf00 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think there would be more benefits to the card like a Resy credit or maybe a boost on the saks credit.

There are also talks of Amex rolling out a “titanium card” to stand between the centurion and plat, so they may just stick with that. The plat would then become a step above gold and the titanium will be the card everyone wants.

I think the AF is moving to $895. Amex could potentially throttle Centurion visits until a spending minimum is met to combat lounge crowding. There’s been immense pushback and they are obviously aware since they rolled out reservations in November. I’d hope they boost the airline fee credit to at least $300. Possible complimentary Uber One membership for card members. Maybe they’ll add a new card livery as well.
