I'm an A-List customer. My spouse and I are flying tomorrow. They could check in but the app said try again later. I tried on my laptop and it says "airport check in required". It is a domestic flight.
Anyone have this happen before?
Spouse and I (60) have plans to visit one of our kids and grandchild. All of our kids live elsewhere, far enough that we all have to fly to visit each other. We keep in touch by regular Zoom calls in between visits so we can have a good relationship with kids and grandkids.
Our kids grew up with extended family locally and out of state. Both of us have sibs and nieces and nephews. Holidays, birthdays, special events, were spent with family plus a couple extended family trips. Every other Christmas we traveled to grandparents and the cousins loved spending a week together and all sleeping in the basement rec room. One of our kids married an only child with little extended family, the other has siblings and a big extended family like ours.
The family has not all been together since Thanksgiving. We have traveled to visit each child's family individually since then as they each have a small child and easier for us to go to them. We talked about getting together in early June as we have in the past, covering Mothers Day/Fathers Day/Birthdays in one swoop. The little cousins get to see each other and we get to see the grandkids together. Child in question has plenty of extra room so we have gone there, Child told sibling it was ok to come again this year. Sibling said great here are the dates we are thinking. Now that June is fast approaching and Child has not said anything further about the visit, so we inquired. Child said we could come but not sibling's family at this time. Sibling has hurt feelings. And I am concerned about a rift between our 2 kids over this.
We are all good guests, we help out around the house, watch the grandchild so parents can go out or get things done, cook or pick up dinner etc. Our grandchild loves having us visit as well as seeing Aunt, Uncle and cousin. They have 2 spare bedrooms and a basement rec room so we have plenty of room to spread out. We have made our stays a little shorter to not be a burden only to have child exclaim sincerely that the visit ended so soon and we don't stay as long any more. I had asked previously if there were any difficulties with our visits and was told no.
We have had this get together for several years in a row and asked if it would happen again. Child says they want family to visit but plan ahead. Both of our kids say they want to have family holidays and get togethers like they did growing up. Am I overreacting to be upset that they can't handle 4 people and a toddler visiting for a few days once a year.
