On Delta, I would just book my ticket into Comfort+ if possible — you’re guaranteed bin space. I fly with a bright orange Pelican AIR 1535 and have never had a problem on most of Delta’s fleet with it in the bins, and C+ basically means I can snag a bin fast and early.

There’s two forms of gate-checking at hand here.

As we’ve mentioned before, if you’re an active or retired service member or a child of one, you can also qualify for fee waivers at four different rental agencies (like Hertz and Budget) through USAA.

“She wrote about a situation where she very much could have been in immediate danger.”

‘cept when the tow truck comes around and then just drags it onto a tow truck because “it’s the booted car”.

I mean this isn’t the first time GM’s pulled shit like this. They abandoned an entire small town in northern New York when they pulled the Massena Powertrain plant that hasn’t recovered ever since.

FWIW in experience with taking the voluntary bump on Delta these days, it’s not cash, but you get a choice of how to apply the money into a gift card, and Amex is always a choice. ;)

1st gear: holy shit let it die already

I believe from what I understand of the architecture they may have used false credentials to initially start a reservation on the vehicle then found an exploit or way on the Mercedes vehicles to “bypass” the Car2Go immobilization system so they could then have unfettered access to it without tracking.

If only they had facial recognition to be able to track when known criminals were entering the facility...

I’ll take the aluminum cage, yanno, the one we fucking use already for bear cages

So they’re going to make a knockoff of the Jeep Renegade, arguably already a shitty “SUV” in the first place...

They’re in violation of Visa’s surcharge rules, as part of the network agreement they signed on with Square. They are NOT allowed to surcharge Visa Debit transactions.

Bring it back in the first-gen body with a full electric AWD drivetrain, 200+ mile range, and call it the n(e)on.

At this point, it’s not clear why the U.S. and Canadian authorities differ from the other major regulators.

I want great flying professionals that are allowed to easily and quickly take control of a plane!

But isn’t it a general rule that the chef should never go sober?

The UAW is corrupt and rewards ignorance and malice. Change my mind.

possible future uses such as seat-to-seat video conferencing

check in as close as possible to the 24-hour mark before your flight and you might hit the goldmine. At this time, passengers with elite status often get upgraded, leaving some coveted coach window and aisle seats up for grabs.
