Anyone willing to sell some Marriott bonvoy points?!

Are Delta international award tickets fully refundable the same way domestic ones are?

I have a boneheaded question I’m pretty sure I know the answer to. My partner can’t use my Hilton Honors account for an upcoming stay he is going to book, right? He doesn’t need my discount or anything - was just hoping that he could get my diamond benefits.

Do you fly out to family for the holidays or do they come to you? We're hosting Christmas for the first time and having the entire family come to town for it. What are some can't miss holiday events in the city? Ideally accessible because my father is in a wheelchair.

Anyone commuting from Midtown Toronto to Mississauga for work and willing to carpool??

How many people do you think each SPG/Marriott ambassador looks after?

How is Austrian Air and Air Canada? Solid airlines for economy seats?

We flew back from Ireland today on Delta. Our connecting flight from JFK at 6:10 was cancelled while we were flying over the Atlantic Ocean, and we were rebooked on a 3:40 instead (2.5 hours earlier) but not notified. I received no email, text or app notification of the flight cancellation or the new flight we were placed on, so we missed it. They now cannot get us home tonight and won’t even guarantee they can get us home tomorrow, impacting my work, (cont)…

Super excited about the new HK-SG travel bubble. I’m booked on the first flight out!

Hi,

Can someone tell me how many days does it take for the laptop to get delivered post the Laptop Delivery email?

Reason: i need to book a flight to my hometown and the prices are high af

How did you pick your travel system? So hard to choose too many options 🥹. Feeling overwhelmed

Thoughts on the best domestic mileage program? Any recommendations for someone also potentially using those miles for international redemptions?

Planning to travel during Thanksgiving (super late in planning as usual) any fun recos- travelling from Chicago have boatloads of AA and Bonvoy points to burn. 7-8 nights

Is cheaper to book flights at the airport, online, or over the phone? Looking to book a flight was a 3-weeks out date

Is firm travel back up to pre covid levels?

So, let's speak about something a bit more...delicious. Best restaurant/hotel to get Thanksgiving dinner in NYC?

Can someone please help me with the scope of Advisory role in Procurement Transformation team ?
Also, how is WLB and travel requirements away from base location.

Burnetters are always last to know about Burnett news. 😑

Do you think remote hires are less safe when layoffs come or is that an old school mentality?

Hi All,

Compensation team told my variable will be 10 to 15% and there will be quarterly bonus depending on performance it seems?
Is this true? IBM

I’ve been having a bit of trouble working with one partner at a new firm. There are definitely things I can/need to work on for improvement, but I’ve been practicing for four years and have had no trouble with other partners/peers before. This partner sent an email to me with bills for one client of his/hers I worked on and now looped in a practice management person to have a ‘management call’ (prob to talk about billing less..) Should I be looking for other opportunities?

Virtusa vs Tech M
Same CTC .
Yoe 5.1

Which one to join?

There is an opportunity that I’m currently interviewing for that is very interesting to me. I’m interviewing two other places but I’m not responding to LinkedIn emails for other positions. The other positions don’t interest me as much. On one hand I don’t want to waste time prepping for all positions and rather put that time only for the ones that I have going on, on the other hand I feel like what is that falls through. Wondering if I’m making the right choice

Do you feel like turnover has now diminished after this busy season or will it kick up again as we approach the next one?

At this point, I'm wondering if most firms have hired enough people or they are still on the lookout due to shortage.

DO YOU JUST ASSUME THE COST OF YOUR MARKETING ACTIVITIES? I am looking to allocate their cost in the marketing budget in a way that won't rely on several layers of assumptions. How do you reliably estimate the cost of different marketing activities (email, social, web, etc) when you don't have specific people or tools allocated to each function and costs are spread across many channels? Ads seems the easiest, but even then there's time and overheads... I've been looking for a reliable model.

Can you provide examples of observed phenomena that science still can’t explain?

I had two interviews with two people at different companies and each time the interviewer had their camera off stating that they are having connection issues. Is that acceptable for candidates to do?

Quick question.
I was a contractor for a big company and they just let me know that my last day is December 30th. I got this position thanks to a recruiting company that has been great and gives me benefits.
Should I:
- Continue working with the recruiting company, hoping that they will find another position for me? (as they told me they will, and when they applied me I started working with my current company within 2 weeks)
- Work with the recruiter + apply for jobs on my own?

Hey Everyone,

Any idea on how is the Job market for Power Platform (power bi + power apps) technologies in Canada??

My company is trying to retain me by saying they will file for Canada visa. Is it a trap like assuring h1b for usa ?

How long it takes for Canada Visa ? And what are the chances for getting work visa for Canada?

My DashPass via my CSP is expiring at end of the month. Does anyone know if I can get another year of it by adding another eligible Chase card on the same account??

Amex Platinum or Chase Sapphire?

Thoughts on the best domestic mileage program? Any recommendations for someone also potentially using those miles for international redemptions?

Just got an offer to upgrade my Amex Gold to Platinum with a 100k point bonus (spend $6k in 6 months). Is this worth it to upgrade to platinum? Would you do it

Which CC is better for sign-up bonus - Citi Premier 80K points or Chase Aer Lingus/Iberia 100K Avios points?

I churn somewhat regularly and am under 5/24 by 1. I think Citi's points are more valuable but maybe I should knock out another Chase card before I'm at 5/24 again, even though Avios isn't as versatile?

"How many points?"
I'm new to all this. Beyond all the humor is this actually commonly done ? What's the process and way to go. Real examples please:)

Found a bed bug in a Radisson Red in Campinas Brazil, how many points?

Best Hyatt in Hawaii (ideally Kona or Maui)?

Flight attendant woke me up while I was sleeping to give me ice cream, then I couldn’t go back to sleep.
How many points?

I was on an AA flight that turned around near the final destination due to "air conditioning problems," landed back in Philly, then we reboarded a few hours later.

What should my demands be?

American Airline q - if I have Gold status and an American Airlines credit card - does that mean I get two free checked bags or one

What are the best credit cards to use for
Personal use , flight booking?

What do folks think about the Uber credit card? I already have CSR and citi double cash. Worth getting it?

I screwed up. I’m a newb and didn’t know how mileages work and my gold status w AA is about to expire. I travel weekly and idk whether I should fly w/o status or pay $400 to extend it. Thoughts? 😭

Any recommendations on credit cards with lounge access? Currently have the Chase Sapphire Reserve which has Priority Pass, but have been turned away from lounges not accepting PP at peak times

Did anyone else from PwC sign up for the special rates/accrual targets for status with United for business travel? I can’t find my email tracking my progress, must’ve deleted it. Cont....
