I’m looking for 160 Pluspoints that are valid on/after Feb 7th 2022 to upgrade a flight for my parents.

I can offer 240 pluspoints in return (expiring Jan 31, 2022)

Haven’t had luck with United extending my points and I won’t make 1k this year 😔 My mom has arthritis so I’m trying to find a way to make her travel (on Feb 7th) more comfortable 🙏🏼

I don’t think points have been issued for anyone beyond Jan 31st, 2022. Usually, United extends 80 points until April 30 but that is announced in Dec.

For requalification, yes. They’ll extend then.
In my case I won’t make it :/ And therefore the ask 🙏🏼

Planning a trip to Rome and Naples with day trips to Tivoli and Pompeii. Is 1 week enough? I feel like reading through 3/4 day Rome and 2 day Naples itineraries, the trip seems rushed.

I would say max we could do is 1.5 weeks but adding on 3-5 more days seems almost too much? Thoughts? For reference, I did Venice-Florence-Rome in a week and it seemed okay but it also wasn’t as planned out

Any tips for organizing a bedroom, closet, dresser & bathroom? My teen has IADHD, and low executive functioning. Her room looks like a land mine. Clean clothes are mixed in with dirty, her desk is a disaster, she won’t let go of clothes she’s outgrown, drawers are open with clothes hanging out. A therapist said to close her door if we don’t want to see it but it’s more than that. She needs this important life skill & I don’t know how to help. Easier to organize w/o her but that’s not a solution.
