Airline loyalty is dead. Don't bother. Also Hyatt is awesome. One of the last travel chains that actually gives a shit. Yes, I guess I’m jaded! 😉

Hey Delta - any chance you could check on a status challenge request for me? Have a flight Monday that I'd like to count! Case number is 31109579.

If you boo or otherwise disrespect Andrew Luck’s NFL retirement, you can go fuck yourself. Good on the Indianapolis Colts for doing right by their guy. Nothing but the best to an incredible talent. Will miss watching him, but happy retirement!

Lots in the media of americanair apologizing to flyers for the many delays/cancellations this summer (and compensating with miles). Exec Plat 1m miler here - and all I got was a rejection letter when I asked them to pay for my 48 hour delay at DFW. Any wonder I'm flying DL? 🤬

Have to say it: The Westin Bonaventure Westin Bonaventure has taken really great care of me the last two weeks. Many thanks! You have earned becoming my preferred hotel downtown.

I have a great view of DIA's runways 34L and 34R from my hotel room. It is shocking (but also not) how little traffic there is for a major hub. Scary times. Stay safe and healthy, folks.

HELL YES we did. Can't wait! “Fans fell in love with Anson Mount, Rebecca Romijn and Ethan Peck’s portrayals of these iconic characters when they were first introduced on ‘Star Trek: Discovery’ last season,” said Julie McNamara, executive vice president and head of programming.

Really Alaska Airlines? Making first class board last because some “Karen” complained? I am a longtime Alaska loyalist but if you want first class dollars, you need to provide first class service. This is not a health/safety issue!

General #Mattis, I can't find your Twitter (if you have one) but I thank you for your service and respectfully ask you to run for the presidency in 2024. Senator/VP Biden will be an improvement to the disastrous incumbent, but our nation needs serious leadership. Please.

I've been a frequent critic of TSA over the years, but I couldn't be happier that they are now able to fine people who refuse to wear masks at airports. I'm out there these days, and disturbed by how many people I see not wearing masks or wearing them wrong. Toss them out!

Hi @alaskaair, I've had two instances in the past 24 hours of "confirmed" upgrades (dark box with the white "F" for instant 75K upgrade) being inaccurate. When I complete the booking it says no upgrade available. Could be IT issue - can you follow up? Thank you- very frustrating.

As a dog owner, Progressive, Uber Eats, @Drizly and DoorDash are backlisted until they take fucking doorbells out of their commercials. STOP triggering our dogs!! 🤬🤬🤬

Hi Alaska Airlines - having a similar problem to a few weeks ago, where I buy a ticket (first segment with you, second on AA) but am not showing up on their upgrade waitlist. Can I DM you my confirmation so you can check?

Is anyone else finding it impossible to book on Qatar Airways with Alaska Airlines miles at the "saver" rate? Trying to book US-->Africa and every time I try the 120K mile option (business) it never completes. "We're sorry, we aren't able to confirm space on these partner flights."

In more than 3 million miles flown I have never seen a worse traffic management program than at John F. Kennedy Airport tonight. They apparently won’t hold any departures and there are at least a dozen aircraft waiting to cross a runway. Entering hour two… #neveragainJFK

Picked a REALLY bad time to make a run for Delta Diamond. $35K after jumping to $20K last year? Consider that effort abandoned. But y'all do you. Good luck. "Loyalty" is dead, and I'll be looking for the cheapest first class fare I can find. I am now airline agnostic.
