If an airline can get rid of change fees, which serve no practical purpose nor provide any good/service, then a hotel can get rid of resort fees. Right?

I’m shook. The first class flight attendant just greeted the first class cabin as a whole. Made a few jokes, said thanks for flying, told us what was available to drink and snack on then wished us a good day.

Car window smashes in SFO are so bad signs are everywhere and even the guy at the National rental booth said “hey for real, we are having 10 broken a day. Don’t leave a single thing in your car”. Local friends said same thing and one’s window smashed twice.

It’s February! I had my healthiest month in January in almost two years.
- no booze since New Year’s Eve
- Peloton everyday riding 535 miles for the month which is a new PR
- 1,380 min of logged workouts
- no strict diet but cut out a lot of the junk
- down 15 lbs

Insurance just paid my dentist $339 for a cleaning and exam that was done in 30 min. When I was self pay last year, at the same dentist, it was $85. My Walmart now has an exam and cleaning for $50. This system is so broken and insurance so expensive because of BS like this.

A grown ass man that is obviously horribly ill is sitting next to me on this flight. Head in lap, coughing and spent 30 min puking in a bag. The seat belt sign was off and he never got up and went to the lab. I’m losing it. Im sorry you’re sick man but why are you flying??

Shuttle driver at ATL from parking had all the windows open on a cold morning. She said she lost a brother to the virus & was worried now that no one was masked. I braced for someone to rant about their rights, but instead we nodded and were happy to be cold for the 5 min ride.

@Hotel48Lex
charges direct bookings a $35 resort fee and OTA bookings a $60 resort fee, no doubt to cover the commission they have to pay OTAs. Really nasty practice there and the first variable resort fee policy I’ve seen.
