I don't recline either, but it's a person's choice. If they do t want you to recline, eliminate the functionality.

Not for personal travel and where don’t have status for potential upgrades. Also, it’s not like I’ve worked my whole life in consulting and never sat in Spirit/RyanAir/TigerJet before.

I don’t recline unless it’s a long haul flight (cross country US) or longer or I’m in first class. But I agree that I do check behind me first. If someone is working on their computer I won’t. It’s amazing what a little bit of communication and respect can do to make everyone’s flight a bit less hellish.

If you recline in front of me while I work, the PC goes on my lap. Honestly it’s only slightly more shitty working like that than it already was on the plane so I don’t get the big deal

What airlines are people flying on that reclining they seat goes into the other persons space. When I recline my seat it feels like a normal, sanely angled seat as opposed to being hunched forward in the “upright” position

We literally just had / are still having this debate on another thread

Perhaps airlines need to understand there has been a shift in the utility expected by clients.

He’ll always fly commercial. Comfort plus at best on domestic. Delta One at best if international. Partner works at Delta and is familiar with his travel arrangements.

The intent was to say he doesn’t always fly Delta One if international...

Totally agree.

Plus on a visa we cannot have other income. This is going to be a long game of catch up.

Do folks have trusted/valuable resources for researching luxury family travel with young kids? I don’t care the cost, I want to know what is most convenient and nice for my family. Feel like generally most resources are geared to either a) families on a budget (I don’t care which hotel is best bang for buck w/mid breakfast) or b) couples / adults only travelers. Do folks just stick to true five star hotel concierges for help? Do folks just book luxury tours like A&K? How do folks research?

Question for fellow attorneys:

I applied to a credit card with Chase a few months ago and within 7 days I was told it was rejected and they would send a letter explaining why.

Chase has recently calling to say it expired (they said it wasn’t rejected but I was told on the recorded line that it was).

Isn’t this against the law (fair credit reporting act)?. I’m not a lawyer so I’d love to hear your thoughts

Serious question - is there a reverse FIRE strategy? I like the idea of saving and retiring early, but the one hiccup I see (and sorry if this is grim) is if you die earlier than expected. I’d be worried that I would minimize lifestyle and fun for retirement at 50 but I’d die at 49. How about a way to work 9 months out of the year and retire/travel/relax for 3 months? This way you guaranteed your dreams/etc. are fulfilled
