Noticed the airplane mode notification at the top of the screen had a little information icon, and upon clicking saw this message.
I went back to the last ~10 release notes and didn’t see this mentioned. Has this always been the case and have I just not noticed it until now?!
I thought this was really really nifty - using messaging protocols to still get updates even when “full” WiFi isn’t available.
Seeing this kind of notification, which tells me I’ve been on the plane I’m about to fly out on once before, is just a really small feature that makes Flighty such a great user experience imho. Just makes me smile every time.
(It also doesn’t happen very often, despite having north of 500 flights on United over the past 10 years, which always is a nice reminder of how massive their fleet is:)
I own a Eureka Oro Mignon grinder, and one day, I decided to upgrade it a little bit with a lovely custom olive wood lid I found on Etsy.
The day after installing it, I started coming home from work to the lid having fallen off and often rolled off the kitchen counter and moved about the house, and I had no clue what was going on until I caught one of the perpetrators in the act… little Tippy and her big brother Jupiter are both completely obsessed with the lid and will rub their faces on it for hours on end… they go more crazy over it than catnip!
I really love the heavy finish of the lid, which also helps with the ease of “bellowing”, but I may need to order it in a different finish because this olive wood one will not stay in place :)
Not much known/shared about what happened other than that the 62-year old diver “underwent an emergency”.
Connecting at EWR at the moment, and the United app shows this bit of preview text with information about the transfer, but I cannot for the life of me find how I can access the full text.
The text itself is not clickable. If I click the “preview transfer” link above it, it shows me a step-by-step of the transfer, but those steps (erroneously) do not include the air train that the preview blurb does mention.
Two weeks ago I connected at IAD and the exact same thing happened. In both cases the previewed blurb of text seems to have relevant, practical information that I can’t seem to actually access?
Boston flights are being delayed due to low cloud cover at the moment, but according to Flighty, United is making up for it with a negative five minutes taxi time - this is excellent service!
