Not by heart

Was that difficult? I'm genuinely curious about United's rewards program. Their flights are cheap from LGA>ORD, so I've been debating flying them

Wow BCG1, to get from Gold to EP by EOY must mean your client is a pretty long way away...Gonna be a lot of butt-in-seat time for you the next three months. Good luck!

@SC1 I was worried about status this year because I spent a few months on the beach. Difficulty really depends on where you'll be flying versus their status qualifications. Platinum is doable in a calendar year on segments alone but you really need to be staffed the entire year. If you're flying relatively far every week (e.g, coast to coast) hitting even 1k is easy

Nice @BCG1...international project?!

And @A1 yep I have an international trip coming up in December so will use that to get me over the 1k hump 😄

Lololol Jesus BCG1 must be nice

Nice work, being Group 1 is really a big deal considering the amount of Group 2... I made 1K last week so I hope you manage to make it by EOY

Yeah P1 looking forward to group 1 boarding...group 2 is way too saturated now. Congrats on 1k!

Luggage delay claim question

I used Chase explorer to buy tickets for my vacation and luggages were delayed for a month. Per chase term I am entitled $100 a day for 3 days. But the claim agency chase used has been asking for airlines response, which has not came (2month+ now). I am concerned insurance will use this as an excuse to never compensate. Is there a good way to handle this situation?
TIA

Hello - thinking of starting a small side coaching practice. Could use a bit of help because I've never thought about opening a side hustle but times are tough with two kids in college.

1. What is the best approach to collecting your fee? Each session? Pay the package cost upfront,? Other, and if so, what is it?
2. How do you collect it? Venmo? Credit card?
3. Do you have to register your business?

Thank you in advance for any guidance.

Trying to figure out if she could: drop insurance and charge more, scale out and build her own practice, and/or work more (could maybe see 26-28 ppl/week). Curious if anyone can share thoughts or brain power!
