Serious question: If a flight is 4.5 hours delayed due to late inbound crew is there room to get a refund and get the PQMs?
Joke question: Air masks dropped, no cabin pressure, how many points?

Not if the crew was delayed due to weather.

My mask once dropped, but we were on the ground and mine was the only one; laughed too hard to ask for points

Check with the card you booked with. A lot of times they will give you some level of credit.

Double dip and ask for PQM/PQS. If you feel daring (and are close to the next level of status) as for an upgrade to the next level. Given its EOY, and if you’re close, they’ll give it to you

For expert witnesses/lawyers

I’m a former forensic scientist that left the field several years ago. I recently received a subpoena from a case I worked and suggested to DA to have evidence re-worked by the lab or stipulation. If I am required to testify (as an expert witness), I would need to book a flight, hotel, etc. My question is this: can I ask for my requested hourly rate, travel, and hotel to be covered when speaking with DA or is that “not how this works” as the investigator put it?
