This probably sounds like a newbie question. Booking flights from dc to London. Going to take an American Airlines flight operated by ba. Any reason to pick one or the other?

If you book as AA you get free seat selection. If you book at BA, you have to pay to select your seat. The fare can also be different depending on how you book it. Are you using an AA credit card? You might get more bonus points to book as AA.

I think that when you book it as a AA flight, you book the seat with aa but I’m not 100%.

If I fly from Dc to Europe, I go out of my way to fly Delta. They have flights out of Dulles and it’s worth it.

AA/BA have a transatlantic joint venture through OneWorld. Basically the same except for the seat/name on the side of the plane. Believe it’s all 777s for both of them on JFK-LHR so book whatever works best for your schedule.

Hi all,

I just got a job with Delta airlines and I had an accomodation request to work remotely as I am Immunocompromised. I provided all the neccesary documents to back up my request and letters and documents from my Dr. aswell. My request was denied because the team said they wanted me to have face time and one on one interactions with people from other team (which defeats the purpose of my request) because I have to limit those interactions to reduce the risk of infection. What do I do?

Wife and I want to do a quick trip to Orlando with our 3 year old. Just want to do magic kingdom for a day as i think that’s all we can handle. Recommendation a on Disney hotel vs say a Marriott? The price difference is huge and I know I can get a suite for free with my status at the Marriott.

I'm a light sleeper who cares too much about the people around me, but I've got a flight to London next Friday from 7pm NYC time to 7am UK time, and I'd really like to master sleeping on a plane just this once and not be in jet lag hell for the entire day after I land. I'll be in premium economy in an aisle seat. I usually take melatonin before bed and sleep on my side. Does anyone have suggestions for an OTC sleeping pill or pillow that actually works, or other advice for sleeping on a plane?
