    I love to see airline employees using their benefits. I don't understand why some people don't travel! This year we did Italy. Next year hopefully Australia and Japan. Besides all the weekend trips. Keep it up! Love your videos!

      Thank you so much! I agree with you. It’s like why work for the airlines if you’re not going to use the benefits? Your travel destinations sound amazing.

    While you’re in London, the Mughal Indian restaurant on Praed Street ,off Paddington Station is pretty decent. Rules Restaurant on Maiden Lane , 2 blocks from the Covent Garden tube stop,is also good. There may be a Porter’s English restaurant near there ,no longer certain if it’s still in operation.
    Various tasty meat pie’s and sausages were served there.

    • @TheBohemianTraveler
      @TheBohemianTraveler  Год назад +1

      Congratulations! Both are essentially the same. Both have great flight benefits. The only difference is American goes according to check in time versus Delta goes according to seniority. So when you know you’re going to fly, make sure you check in 24 hours in advance on the dot. And that puts you at the top of the list.

    once again, I luv your videos. They are so informative. my biggest question is if i want to fly to Europe or asia or even cross country and get lucky standby on my first leg, do i automatically get the seat to london as in your case or is that another standby? i don't mind doing layovers so long as i already have a ticket for the next flight because i like to enjoy the centurion, chase, capital one etc lounges.

    • @TheBohemianTraveler
      @TheBohemianTraveler  Год назад

      Thank you so much! So it’s not guaranteed. You standby for each flight. Since I live in LA I try to do a lot of direct flights. But generally international flights don’t fluctuate at the last minute, so you pretty much know your status. Obviously if irregular operations occur or a flight gets canceled or something like that, then the numbers will change drastically.

    • @mistyluv261
      @mistyluv261 Год назад +1

      @TheBohemianTraveler ok, now I see how the majors who have flights from lax to Europe are the ones to work for. the one I may join has connecting flights mostly new york or Boston to Europe. so I guess, the biggest hurdle is not just getting from lax to NY, bit the critical ny to london Paris or Amsterdam etc. so I guess, if I don't make it to Europe my backup plan should be to hand out in NYC for a day or two hoping to get back to lax. this seems so nerve racking that I almost don't care about working fir an airlines. feels safer to just have tickets and enjoy the lounges.

      @TheBohemianTraveler is there a way to get a seat early on standby so that I can enjoy the lounges or is standby all last minutes say 20 minutes before boarding. if so, I may not have time to enjoy my lounges bc centurion lounge is so far to walk to the gates.
