No. I'm just not a stupid 23 year old thinking he's hot shit and deserves points for every flight issue. It's life and happens often.

You rarely get miles for things out of the airline's control (weather, ATC, etc.). They were nice enough to give you notice to find another method of transit... be grateful

Hey you might as well try and complain to customer service, they might offer you a rebate or points. You miss 100% of the shots you don't take

Why all the hate? We're all friends here. Just saying that sending an email explaining the situation and requesting points will either get ignored or responded to, no harm no foul

Oh , but PWC1 you just happen to be a stupid 23 year old "wannabe" hot shit making assumptions 🤤

A quick note about what I’ve experienced, in my decade long career, is the real advantage of MBB or FAANG - it gives you a shot at stretch roles that are outside your expertise. Not all the time or even most of the time compared to better candidates with specific experience for the role but gives you this wildcard shot at a vast array of opportunities.
