I have international award travel in late December (would net about 9k PQM one way). Maybe I made a mistake not paying for my ticket. Any suggestions on how to earn PQM for that trip?

Gotta pay for it. If you need a GPU I’ll sell you one if that helps?

OP cancel the award ticket. If you are platinum or 1k you should be able to cancel no charge

One transcontinental trip over the weekend ..,,

Coast to coast in a paid business ticket

So looked into cancelling and paying for the international award ticket but it’s a ridiculous price tag (>$3000). Will have to see if any other transcontinental flights can fit the bill

I have a coworker who keeps spouting comparative odds and situations in regards to the safety of the vaccine. Such as: you're twice as likely to get hit by lightening than have blod clots from JJ. It's very annoying and I find it to be really inapprorpriate, maybe because it's pushy or just I find these comparative things to be a bit irrelevant. How does one handle something like that? Can you shut the person down without starting a spat?

I’ll believe their supposed commitments, when I actually see the results.
