- Seriously, do not wait for an airline to provide you a hotel when they strand you overnight. They may promise lodging when you’re stuck due to mechanical or crew delays, but that doesn’t mean you’re going to like where they send you.
My favorite part about the horrible “quality hotel PHL” where @AmericanAir put me wasn’t the horrible urine smell, or the non-working locks, but this amazing smoke detection tech. https://t.co/PkcbwMsLxQ pic.twitter.com/tcJp0V2bj2

- They charge full price for this.. surely when an airline doesn’t deliver the full advertised product they shouldn’t keep the money.
Hello #United “premium plus”! Sat down to begin a long flight & noted the chair arm is taped together & has a sticker that says non operative. @united

Me on this issue:
- United will show your position on the upgrade list starting 30 days out will that incentivize buy ups as your see your chances dwindle?
- The gross reason airplane passengers might want to avoid using the water on flights
- Air France KLM Flying Blue can now access Qantas first class awards if you can find any availability, that is.
Welp, still better than accidentally (or deliberately) shutting off fuel to both engines shortly after takeoff… yikes. A ‘win’ for Boeing/GE, if that story sticks.
Use disposable plastic gloves in place of liquid hand sanitizer. Since they are solid they do not run afoul of the liquid rules in the cabin. Since Covid-19 I have used N95 masks while flying (the whole trip except when eating and drinking) and have not caught colds and other respiratory diseases like I used to. I know the story is anecdotal but I don’t care because I feel that they work for me. They are great to have when someone near you is hacking up a lung.
@jns — I’m impressed by your discipline. Keep doing whatever you feel works best for you. Haven’t seen too many masks this year. It’s been wild to watch the phases of panic, resistance, and adoption. It’d be nice to think we’ve learned our lesson from this pandemic, but I highly doubt it. And, what this tells me is that if aliens ever do come, we’ll lose by infighting and betrayal before they ever have to use advanced technology on us…
@jns its time for your 42nd booster, too.
