I’m traveling internationally for the next year for my firm which generally has really only done domestic travel. I’m traveling 2 weeks at a time and our expense policy is written for 1 week domestic.

How can I do a United Status challenge again
through Deloitte? I lost Gold and want it back but can’t re-register (T&C says only once per 3 years). Will they find out if I make a new FF number?

Hi Fishes,

My wife is getting an onsite opportunity for the US via internal transfer (L1 Visa). My company is not providing me that opportunity. So she wants me to travel with her. Can I go with her on her Visa? How can I go? What is the procedure to get a job in the US if I travel with her?

So hypothetically - if I am on a short-ish domestic flight, and am wearing a mask (obv.) AND soaking my hands in a jar of Purell for the duration of entire flight, would that make the flight safe for me?

Has anyone traveling to Canada recently? I am planning to go for four days and part of the documentation is to use the ArriveCAN app which has you complete a questionnaire. One of the questions on there is whether or not you have a suitable quarantine plan, in the event that border control requires you too. I guess I would just extend my stay at the hotel if required, does anyone know if that's an acceptable answer if asked by border control?

Has anyone else had issues attempting to pivot to a new career? I have on my LinkedIn I am only looking for roles within people coordination but I am constantly flooded with inmails about another sales assistant job & rude recruiters telling me it’s a waste of time to even attempt.

I am open that I am graduating next year with a BA in HR, and I’m looking to move to either tech or government in only that sector.

Got a job offer in house that has a lot of opportunity!! It’s time sensitive. But I’m waiting on a (seemingly) better offer at an agency that could take 2 weeks or more. What do I do?

Would you submit to a facial recognition scan to check in, kiosk tag, and send off bags to screening if it meant contactless touch and no agent intake processing? Would you also use facial scan check in at gate to board?
