They couldn't pay me to stay at an airbnb these days. I don't need to clean someone's house and do their laundry while I'm on vacation.

Replied to the topic Lufthansa A380 Pilots File Complaint Over 17 Minute SFO Takeoff Wait: Valid Point Or Overreaction?
Eskimo has previously claimed the flying public is an echo chamber (since in actuality they by-and-large share my sentiments about AI, not his) and is now here claiming they want A.I to replace ATC. Must be nice to have it both ways!
Really it's moot though, since we've established (by lack of ev...

Replied to the topic New Delta One Business Class Soft Product (Meals, Service, Etc.) Rolling Out Soon
I've done fewer D1 flights this year than I normally would because their price has been so crazy. Let's see... BA F (the best business class in the world) for $6K or D1 for $15K. I had to book one of these painful choices last week for a trip later this month to London. It goes without saying whi...

I love that one of the primary focuses of the messaging is around food and beverage. Delta is working to further their competitive differentiation vs. United Polaris's paltry and poor options. United just doesn't seem to be believe that food and beverage is all that important despite their recent pl...

That's a load of rubbish, LIS has an excellent location for the Americas and W. Africa. People don't want to fly all the way to LON/PAR/AMS then backtrack to reach the Iberian peninsula/Italy/Morocco.

While I’m a delta loyalist I think they’re overhyped, but this Is a great step and I’d rather see this type of investment. However… where is the espresso machine?? I was able to get one on Egypt air, but not on the most premium airline is the whole wide world??

Totally disagree on the valuation of .5 cpp for Hilton. Of all the hotel brands, the points devaluation is the worst over the past 2 years.

IHG does not have a great portfolio for high end hotels, but for mid-tier customers it is the best program out there.
Buying points at 1/2 cent with 100% promotion makes it the best program for points redemption. For the past 2 years 90% of my IHG stays have been with points redemption as it gets ...

I am not anti union, I am in general pro union. But like all good things, they need to be applied in the right measure, and with the appropriate checks and balances applied. Management does need to be a counter balance. If I had to mention my prime example of unions gone too far I'd say lo...
