It might only be a two cabin plane in which case the front cabin might only be business class. Think about most US domestic owned and operated flights. What they call first class in a two cabin plane is really a mediocre version of what non US airlines call business class. Check the plane and seat configuration on Seat Guru and that will tell you if this is the case.

*ETA* We have flown JAL business on one of their two cabin planes and would do that again in a heartbeat. It was lie flat and super comfortable.

Thanks!! Yeah, I actually wanted to book business for our June trip but there was no business availability. I would be totally fine with it, just thought it was weird since I'd never seen that before.

For those of you stuck at home with your spouse, significant other, children, etc. and are perhaps finding yourselves a little at odds with each other, I would like to offer a bit of advice....take this added time to dream together. Dream about your future travels, life plans, even your favorite meal to cook together.

My dh was WFH for three weeks. He spent most of his work time at his desk but spent lunch, breaks and a few extra minutes here and there with me, talking about many, many things; where we wanted to retire, the cruises and trips we would go on, where we would eat once the restaurants opened. Even our old record collection was a topic of discussion.

On Palm Sunday we walked out into our field, hand in hand just for some fresh air. One thing led to another, and pretty soon we had a few yard tools and were trimming around the sapling trees that were planted a few years back. These trees were a GREAT joy to him! After consuming lunch out in the field, a pbj and a can of ginger ale (his favorites, and which he was totally thankful for) we continued on with our work. Shortly thereafter he collapsed of a fatal heart attack. It was a quick passing with no suffering.

In all bad you must look for the good. Had I not lost my job last August I most likely would not have been out in the field with him. Had this stupid virus not permeated our world we would not have spent so much time together recently. In his death I am so grateful it was a quick passing and he was in a place he loved, doing something he loved. And in the BEST of it all, he died with a power tool in his hand. That would please him immensely!

I can’t generate a support link for P2‘s CIP. I know the public SUB changed for this card, so are support links no longer available?

Only prior generation links work...if you have one posted in our reddit group you can use that.

I'm so sorry for your loss. What a great reminder to embrace everyday as things can change so quickly. I'm glad you can see the best in a tragic situation.
The only churning advice would be to transfer any transferable miles to your accounts prior to closing his cards/accounts.

I am so sorry for your loss. You should still have access to all his miles and points. I know my DH has no idea what any of his logins are for any reward accounts I just login and use them.

I'm glad you got to spend this time with him.

Did anyone get the Amazon offer on Amex? I didn't see it on any of ours.
https://www.doctorofcredit.com/amex...rship-rewards-points-up-to-2000-bonus-points/
Also, anyone with issues logging in to Chase before I attempt other browsers (which will require text confirms, etc)? I can get into my personal on the app, but not in Firefox. I really don't want to log into each of them on the app with these passwords and probably text confirms as well, I'm a little lazy like that.

Yes, got the offer on Amex Plat.
Having trouble logging in to Chase and Capital One.

I am so sorry for our loss You have my deepest sympathies.

With regards to points, miles and FN certs here is what we did when my dad passed away. Any accounts that could pool or share miles without a fee, we put into my mom's account without disclosing my dad's passing. This would be accounts like Hilton, Marriott, Radisson Rewards, Chase UR points. FF accounts like AA, UA, DL I'd suggest not closing and book flights with the account as if nothing has changed. FN certs depending on the program (Marriott) would have to be in your name to use. I think it may be possible if both names are on a reservation but I think you have to call in for that. BA allows household pooling of points so we just left things as is since we had already set it up that way. Credit cards like Amex that don't allow you to share points will allow transfer of points on an AU card holder's loyalty account, so that is a possibility.

Oh my goodness... I am so very sorry to read this. Wow - your resolve and ability to write this is incredible to me. I will pray for peace and support for you and your family during this time.

to answer question 3: I believe the general advice here is to NOT report his death to any loyalty programs. If you're able to transfer the points to you, do so immediately. If the program does not allow transfers or it's costly to do so, just use the points. If you're concerned about the ability to use them in the immediate future for travel and there is a reasonable cash out or gift card type option you might consider going that route.

In his death I am so grateful it was a quick passing and he was in a place he loved, doing something he loved. And in the BEST of it all, he died with a power tool in his hand. That would please him immensely!

I write this not to bring the mood down or to clog the thread with sympathy posts. I write it 1) for a little cathartic release, 2) a reminder for everyone to embrace every situation you are in, good or bad, and 3) churning advice for points, miles, FNC etc of a deceased P2.

Please accept my deepest condolences and thank you for sharing your thoughtful perspective on his passing. Sending prayers for peace and healing.

For those of you stuck at home with your spouse, significant other, children, etc. and are perhaps finding yourselves a little at odds with each other, I would like to offer a bit of advice....take this added time to dream together. Dream about your future travels, life plans, even your favorite meal to cook together.

My dh was WFH for three weeks. He spent most of his work time at his desk but spent lunch, breaks and a few extra minutes here and there with me, talking about many, many things; where we wanted to retire, the cruises and trips we would go on, where we would eat once the restaurants opened. Even our old record collection was a topic of discussion.

On Palm Sunday we walked out into our field, hand in hand just for some fresh air. One thing led to another, and pretty soon we had a few yard tools and were trimming around the sapling trees that were planted a few years back. These trees were a GREAT joy to him! After consuming lunch out in the field, a pbj and a can of ginger ale (his favorites, and which he was totally thankful for) we continued on with our work. Shortly thereafter he collapsed of a fatal heart attack. It was a quick passing with no suffering.

In all bad you must look for the good. Had I not lost my job last August I most likely would not have been out in the field with him. Had this stupid virus not permeated our world we would not have spent so much time together recently. In his death I am so grateful it was a quick passing and he was in a place he loved, doing something he loved. And in the BEST of it all, he died with a power tool in his hand. That would please him immensely!

I am so very sorry for your profound loss.
