Flybondi Argentina hasn't flown in 12 days - is bankruptcy finally here?

Flybondi, Argentina's first ultra-low-cost carrier, has effectively stopped operating without a formal bankruptcy declaration:

  • No flights since August 6: 12 consecutive days grounded (source, in Spanish)
  • Website down: flybondi.com now returns a 504 Gateway Timeout, reportedly due to a main server crash.
  • Accounts frozen: Argentine federal courts ordered freezes on the airline's bank accounts this month over unpaid tax and social security debts to ARCA (Argentina's tax authority), exceeding 1.5 billion pesos across at least six separate enforcement actions. (source, in English)
  • ~2,400 flights canceled in 2026 so far, affecting roughly 383,000 passengers, per tracking site FailBondi. (source, in Spanish)
  • No refunds since January for cancelled flights, despite this being a legal requirement, estimated unpaid liability north of $19M USD. (source, in Spanish)
  • 700+ former employees unpaid on severance for 3+ months; remaining staff owed June/July salaries plus mid-year bonus; employer contributions lapsed, cutting off health coverage for staff and ex-staff as of Aug 6. (source, in Spanish)
  • Multiple creditors have filed bankruptcy petitions, though Flybondi has not officially confirmed entering bankruptcy proceedings. (source, in Spanish)

Was a old underweight (200 grams) ground beef in Edmonton

I just got my Instacart order in and as I always do, I divide it into bags to vacuum seal them so I can freeze it. The package says 2,534 grams so I figured I can split it in 5 bags of 500 grams. When I filled the last bag, I had barely 300 grams in there. My scale comes with a calibration weight, so I calibrated it to make sure my scale is accurate. And all the bags together weigh just shy of 2,300 grams. So I’m sold 200 grams less than I should have gotten per the packaging. What can I do with this?

The un-welcome drink strikes again

Accor platinum member. Have a two week trip through France and most of our stays this trip are at Accor properties. We have not booked any overlapping reservations this trip, everything is sequential: one stay ends the day the next stay starts. Yet, the app thinks we’re having multiple reservations at the same time-and thus doesn’t want us to grant us a welcome drink.

We have had so many issues with the welcome drink that we call it the un-welcome drink. It either takes too much energy to get it or it’s so restrictive that it actually isn’t giving any feeling of welcome.

Lazy jerk makes taxi drive up the hill of Montmartre (Paris) to get dropped off as close to the Sacré-Cœur as possible.

A busy street full of people strolling had to make wat for a taxi with a visibly annoyed taxi driver.

Travel Router basically rendered useless: stuck on UI.com password

I have had a travel router for a few months now, and from the beginning I've been struggling with getting to the settings through the Unifi app.

I have factory reset the device over 10 times now, and I'm at a point now where I cannot use it at all, because it keeps asking for my UI.com password, and it just keeps saying it's incorrect, despite me being able to successfully log in with it.

It's frustrating and goes against everything the Travel Router supposed to stand for (quick and smooth set up). Can I just opt out of a password at all? Thanks for any advice.

EDIT: u/manwithoutapipe gave me the solution, I wasn't close to the router enough. Apparently being about 3 metres away from the router causes it to fail authentication, but sitting right on top of it allows me to access it. https://www.reddit.com/r/UNIFI/comments/1uwgdgj/comment/oxjcfwh/
