Sorry, I am hungry! Our dinner reservation isn’t until 9 pm so it’s been almost 12 hours except for some mojitos and margaritas

You are really treating those little ladies of yours. First the HRH Rock star suite and now two movies over Christmas. Enjoy the time with your family!

Haha thanks!! I don’t want to spoil them TOO much. They also have a WDW trip in a month with a view of a castle out the window so I probably need to rein it back in

I decided to take the whole week off too... I figured that’s better than pretending to work for 2 days. I’m really looking forward to a family focused week.

9pm??? That’s like the anti old people dinner time. You trying to get more in touch with millennials and their late dinners

Yep. I figured I still get carded like they do so I’m ok. Plus we tired of the buffet and looking forward to the Brazilian steakhouse tonight. Even DS has agreed to try steak again.

Look at me...actually spending some money...

I bought tickets to Frozen 2 and Star Wars for 12/23 and 12/26 next week. I typically only see about 2 movies a year so 2 movies in a 4 day span will he a RARE treat for our family. The first one is with my whole family and the second one is with a large portion of my wife’s family. So that’s fun too!!

Merry Christmas! Loosen the purse strings!
We see a movie every month or two usually depending on the offerings. But always with discounted GCs and always the cheap shows (usually $5.60)

Anyone ever done an unlocked phone off amazon? They have a galaxy s10 deal I'm looking at.... anything to worry about? I have Verizon.

Dh has done that before. He said if you have a SIM card, make sure the one you buy also takes a SIM card.

I liked your post for the family time. I don’t worry much about spoiling, I’m not that rich.
I wish I could take the whole week off. Christmas would be so much more relaxed and enjoyable.

You wash that mouth out with SOAP!!!!

Ha. Come back in 10-20 years when your metabolism hits middle age and we'll see what you have to say then.

I was just telling DH earlier this week that the offers on my Platinum card are too boujee for me. He suggested maybe an AMEX “Aluminum” card would suit me better

But even Aluminum is so bougie when Jony Ive says it!

I’m seeing an unsubstantiated report that perhaps paying for some extra service on your AA award flight might protect it. Example: extra leg room. Perhaps it flags it in a different bucket since it generated revenue. For those worried about these issues maybe try this???

Can we talk about Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker?!

I didn’t hate it. There are parts I even really liked.

What I liked most about The Rise of Skywalker was how it rendered The Last Jedi completely inconsequential. Quite literally, you can forget The Last Jedi ever happened and you’ll have missed nothing important to the story.

Another interesting note about AA lockdowns HERE

I'm going to continue to recommend we keep this info on DISchurners. Most of it is being learned through private channels so we might as well follow suit and use our private channel too. It definitely seems like paranoia...but if you have been reading up on this, you know why people are paranoid!

I'd just keep checking that AA thread on DISchurners for any new comments.

How long are spoilers required? I definitely don't want open discussion on it yet (although fine if you guys use the spoiler tag). I'm not seeing it until 12/26 - I'd assume others are in that boat.

I have to say, I find this somewhat ridiculous as one could get 4 cards and SUBs (citi biz and personal, barclay biz and personal) without doing anything that would even resemble gaming. All of those cards are publicly available and have no terms stated that would prevent you from getting any of them.

I doubt im at risk with only 2 SUBs and having used all but 7k of my aa miles. But they seem to be taking this to something of an extreme.

This is literally getting nuts - you are 100% right!

Hmmm, we picked upgraded coach seats on our AA flight but didn't have to pay because I was gold at the time.

Excuse me AA phone agent...can you please now charge me for those upgraded seats? I really would wish to pay for them...
