It’s in two days. Today I get an e-mail saying my flight was rescheduled. The new flight is 30 minutes earlier than the booked one. I also saw this flight while i was booking and it was about 15…

How Iberia randomly changed my First Class MXP-LHR-JFK flight to an Economy MAD-BOG flight: a funny story. Whoever is familiar with Iberia (and IAG in general) knows that while their customer service agents are usually nice, their IT and procedures are the worst thing ever. I called to cancel a flight booked on British Airways: First class from Milan MXP to NY JFK, with a stopover in LHR. Paid with 96K avios and about 500$ dollars, a good deal. The r…

Can I stay at JFK 12 hours before my flight? Flying out of jfk Hey so I am an international student and wanted to know if I can just stay at jfk from 10 pm. My flight departs at 10 am so check in will open around 5-6 am and since I am 18 years old, I cant find any not shady looking hotels in the vicinity willing to accommodate me. Moreover, the TWA hotel is sold out aswell. So I was wondering if I could jus…

Which flight was the longest one you took? My longest journey by air was from London Heathrow to Los Angeles (11 hours and 15 minutes). I am now considering a trip to Hong Kong, which involves a flight lasting 12 hours and 40 minutes. Sitting in economy class is incredibly frustrating; I couldn’t get enough sleep, the legroom is too limited, and being beside someone is really uncomfort…

Flight Operated by Another Airline What does it mean when the flight says: Delta operated by Aeromexico? Am I flying on a Delta plane with the same policies as Delta, or am I flying under Aeromexico’s policies? For example, can I fly with Delta’s no carry-on weight limit, or must I follow Aeromexico’s 22lb policy? Thank You. submitted by /u/Level-Ad3423

Unlimited annual flight passes What are my options in the US other than Frontier for unlimited annual flight passes? submitted by /u/jjopm

Skipping return flight? I purchased 4 round trip tickets to Orlando with frontier for next month. The flight back is not an ideal time for us now that I think about it. I have two young kids and it’s sort of early. I’m seeing other flights at better times through other airlines on our return date for super cheap. About 100 for all 4 of us. I’m aware we wouldn’t get ref…

Firstname too long for flight ticket. I am traveling internationally for the first time from Mumbai to Bali, and my firstname is too long for the indigo flight ticket, which limits firstname to 32 characters. I spoke to customer care, and they said even they can’t enter more than 32 characters and it’s not a problem and they will leave a note on the ticket to the airport team, and t…

Direct flight to Frankfurt from DFW. Staying in Nuremberg. Returning flight leaves at 10:50 am. Hotel the night before or train in early am? Like the post says. I’ll be in Germany from 30/12/24 – 5/1/24. Unfortunately due to timing and budget I’ll miss out on the Christmas markets 🙁 but I’m happy to be going nonetheless. The only direct flight I could find was from DFW to FRA and it was considerably cheaper than flights with connections. The thing is, I’ve read that FRA is not the …

Someone stole my bag with my passport and phone inside of it on my way to the hotel. My outward flight is tomorrow. What should I do? I’m very upset. I was shopping for presents and in the crowd someone clearly grabbed my bag off me. I asked the people around me if they saw anyone and they all shrugged and looked confused. I’m supposed to be catching my flight early tomorrow morning but they’ve made off with my phone and my passport. I’m absolutely devastated. I don’t know wh…

Iberia changed my flight to arrive 12 hrs after my connecting flight. Advice? Iberia changed my flight (in May) from PMI to MAD to depart 17 hrs after originally scheduled departure time on May 22, 2025. This will cause me to arrive in MAD the next day. In other words, flight now takes off at 23:20 and arrives at 0:45 on the 23rd. My connection from MAD to ORD is on the 22nd at 11:35. All legs are booked directly with Ibe…
