» Best use of miles for EL AL (or other)

I know this is asking a lot, but I'm hoping that perhaps there's someone who's been in a similar situation who can make a suggestion. I'm hoping to fly to Israel this summer with a total of three passengers, and I want us to fly business. I've been saving Amex, UA and AA miles for a long time, and have approx 150k Amex, 135K UA, and 160K AA available to me. Can anyone offer thoughts on whether there are unusual techniques I might use to employ a bunch of these miles (i.e. in addition to just buying more Amex) so as to get us all in business with award travel and/or economy ticket purchase + upgrade? Do any of you veteran EL AL flyers have opinions on what the best alternative airline(s) is/are vis a vis security? In other word...... - 2008-11-19

All, I am new to this site, and I have tried some of the tools, but I seem to be a novice at getting a good MR. I am looking at traveling anytime Dec. 2nd to Dec. 5th out of TPA on Delta. I would like to earn as many miles as possible for less than $400 a ticket for both me and my wife. We don't care if we have to stay a night or two at any location, but the more tropical the better. I need 8000 miles to reach gold this year and I doubt I am going to be travelling much. Thanks for anyone that can spend a few minutes, give me some ideas, and let me know how you do it.

» Hoooray! Random airport checks may be cut!

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Random security screening of people about to board planes could be phased out next year as Transportation Security Administration chief James Loy tries to make air travel less burdensome. As better-paid, better-trained federal workers take over at airport security checkpoints, there is less need for an additional layer of security at the gate, TSA officials say. The deadline for all commercial airports to have federal screeners is November 19. Once all the federal screeners are in place, Loy wants to start phasing out the random searches on an airport-by-airport basis, TSA spokesman Robert Johnson said Monday. Paul Hudson, executive director of the advocacy group Aviation Consumer Action Project, said he's alarmed b...... - 2008-11-19

» Click here for help

A little feedback, please, from anyone familiar with the Click Rewards program. A friend just won 80,000 points and asked for my advice on how to utilize them. My questions are this: is 80,000 points the same as 80,000 miles on any program? Although I have suggested American (he is already a member) for placing his points, are there any limitations in terms of this or other programs? Also, he has been told that the value of the prize is $2400 and he will be eligible for taxes. This doesn't seem fair, since 80,000 miles is worth $1600 (valued at .02/mile, the usual conversion figure). If he were to use the miles for 3 domestic tickets (75,000 miles), the probable cost of three coast-to-coast tickets would be about $1200. How does th...... - 2008-11-19

» JetBlue Seating

I am flying on JetBlue this March for the first time and I have a couple of questions about seating. 1) Is there more room in the bulkhead or emergency exit row? 2) In the emergency exit rows do both rows have full recline or just the second row? Thank you for your help.Originally posted by GWU ESIA STUDENT: I am flying on JetBlue this March for the first time and I have a couple of questions about seating. 1) Is there more room in the bulkhead or emergency exit row? 2) In the emergency exit rows do both rows have full recline or just the second row? Thank you for your help. I'd say that the legroom is about the same in both rows. In the bulkhead row, your TV is located further down because there is no seat in front of you (only a clear...... - 2008-11-19

» Commercial License Question

Hello I am thinking about a commercial license for the Developer License. If I buy a license, is that license good forever? That is, say 2 years down the road, when version 10 is released with a whole plethora of new features, etc, will my license that I purchase today still be effective without having to spend more money for a Developer License upgrade?Also, what kind of support license do you get with the Developer License? (I don't see any specific information about this in the "Store" section of the new website).The license is a classic commercial software license. It is good for that version forever. We also include 1 year of free minor and major upgrades. The licenses and support subscriptions are "a la carte". A commercial ...... - 2008-11-19

» Barca-Levski Sofia on Setanta [no R]

I recorded this match (Setanta broadcast with a DirecTV R15 DVR) earlier today and noticed that the image seems squished (as if the ratio is off). Did anyone else have this problem or am I just thinking I'm seeing this? (I thought I saw the same thing with the first Arsenal match this season but the folks at Setanta said I was the lone person to raise this issue so it might be my setup.) The Chelsea-Bremen match looked fine. If you did have this problem, was the problem corrected as the match progressed? Thanks.i watched the first arsenal game this season on setanta and didn't notice anything like that. i didn't watch the game today on setanta, i saw it on espn classic.You are not the only with that problem of that broadcast. Usually the g...... - 2008-11-19
