If you have tons of ultimate rewards point, and need to fly somewhere only serviced by emirates, Qatar or Etihad what’s the best transfer strategy?

For those who have started traveling again... I recently started flying for work and am noticing increased discrimination on Delta Airlines. As a brown person have experienced that in the past, but lately it’s blatant. I’m a diamond and a million miler however, I see more and more out of turn upgrades. Have you experienced and what dis you do about it?

New year checklist for amex plat, CSR, Delta, and AA? :)

When your flight is delayed 2 hours but Delta brings out pizza and snacks 🙃

Have some big trips planned for next year so I would like to upgrade my Delta gold AMEX to Platinum (need that MQD waiver 💸). I heard that if I upgrade I won’t get the 50k sign-up bonus miles, so should I just close my gold card (not my oldest card) and open a new Platinum one?

If I book a plane ticket for my family member (not a trip I’m going on) through Delta will they get my status perk (priority seats and boarding zone)?

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

I am AA Platinum Pro, for international travel on AA, is there extra baggage allowance or not? Weight wise or piece wise? Oneworld website says ‘yes’ and AA website says ‘no’

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)…

American airlines is so dumb. Was trying to purchase MCE seats for a long-haul. You can’t

How does one share a Delta drink voucher? Can you just take a screenshot?

Hi folks,

I have been offered a position on Senior Consultant/ Deputy Manager at Deloitte India for 4.5 years of exp.

Is this position/role normal for years of experience I hold?

The only reason I ever pursued casual sex (a couple times when I was 17-19) was to not get my heart broken. It always sucked and was so boring. I don’t understand when people say they want sex with no emotions. It’s the best part.

Any 🐠 traveling from PHX to ATL next week ? I have some luggage (one check-in bag) that I want sent if you are kind to help. Any fish willing to help ? Will buy you 🍺 and 🍕 as a thank you

Any advice on getting into product management? I have 3+ YOE working as an IT service manager and I’ve seen so many companies stating they want people from “diverse backgrounds” but then soon change their minds when they find out in an interview that you don’t have very specific product management experience

Hey Guys!

Lets share this Bowls and build a community which will help us in any poland related issue :)

Is IB worth the sacrifice of WLB? Obvious pay is really good but are the prestige and pay worth it if you’re planning on only doing it for a couple years?

Currently working at an IRA with great WLB. Honestly I love my job, the firm, and people I work with.

Also doing MBA part time at a T15 school. Thinking about switching to IB but I’ve done my research and I think I would burn out of IB in two years but I might be ok with that for the opportunities after.

I have gotten a verbal offer from Facebook, but I just had my phone screen interview with the hiring manager at Amazon yesterday. I want to reach out to the recruiter at Amazon and let them know what the timeline looks like. I would much rather have the Amazon job over the Facebook one. But I’m afraid if I decline Facebook then Amazon won’t happen. I’m just completely lost.

Can everyone tell if they used to receive gift on diwali? This year I haven't got anything

I felt like a walking zombie during thanksgiving, barely eating and barely talking. My family is small and I told them ahead of time my relationship ended. I focused on my niece and nephews, cried when I wanted to and slept from 8pm-noon for the last 5 days. Showered once or twice. That’s the best I could do and that’s OK right now. I’m back in my apartment, just trying to take it one day at a time, and not re read his texts too much. My birthday is Thursday 🙄

Test Engineer - Mountain View location - L4 - 155k base , 15%bonus, total $260k stocks vested 25% at end of year- Am I lowballed and whats best for 6 years experience?

Anyone here in Toronto or Canada? Or am I all alone?

6th year - over 2000 hours, great review last year, this year they said will not promote me. They will do a mid year review early next year and if still no good, will discuss “transition” plan. HR said I have until next spring. Sounds like I can stay on payroll for another 7-8 months? Is it real? I have a lot of financial obligations so want to know the worst scenario

Does CSR earn 3x points at bars on drinks?

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

purchase it online after check-in. And they can’t uncheck you over the phone. Good thing I fly Delta!

"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:)

Any star alliance status match delta platinum?

Might have to leave the “all things points” bowl soon if these creepy ant/roach/bug posts continue. Making me so paranoid to stay in a hotel now smh

Is it just me or Marriott is actively trying to kill the SPG brand. Have been trying to reach SPG platinum customer service line - 3 attempts so far, each lasting 30 mins, no success yet.

Will end up at 65 Marriott nights for 2018. What would you select for your annual choice benefit? 5 elite night credits or is that pointless?

I’m doing some research on frequent travel for a new loyalty concept. Looking for newish analysts/consultants who would be willing to answer a dozen or so questions for a $10 Starbucks gift card.

New to UR travel portal. I keep seeing that I will get 1.5x back here -- does that mean if I have 20,000 points originally, it becomes 30,000 points in the portal? (cont.)

Does anyone ever redeem Marriott points for gift cards? Is it worth it?

How does delta upgrades and waitlist work? Do all medallions check in 24 hours prior to boarding? What determines who gets what?
