Thanks to those passengers on PHI-DFW today who stayed seated while the honor guard exited the plane for the deceased serviceman being transported.

For those few who can’t follow directions, decorum or didn’t hear the flight crew ask everyone to wait and instead stood up to get their gear requiring a second request to stay seated, do better.

Flying while fragrant

So here I sit, in a first class cabin on American Airlines, (domestic route) and the ENTIRE CABIN IS REEKING OF DIOR SAUVAGE EDP.

Pretty it is not to be confined in this man's fumes.

[BNA] Got my first ever heart rate alert during boarding

That’s it. That’s the whole story.

I saw a sea of gate lice and just didn’t see a path forward, and then my Apple Watch buzzed and I got a high heart rate alert—this happened even after just standing there motionless for 10+ minutes.

That’s never happened before. I didn’t even know I had such alerts turned on.

I’m group one, and it’s a larger plane than I am used to. I know my carry on will be fine.

Why am I so worked up? Am I alone in this involuntary fight or flight response to chaotic boarding situations?

First Auto Seat Change request - a win!

Flight coming up. When booked, all MCE seats were taken. Decided to try out the new feature, and it scored a win for me! 🎉🎉

ETA: I will say I wish there were better options for the auto seat move (I.e. MCE only instead of just closer to front). But I think this is a great start!

DFW pilfered BAG ~ Urgent help needed: American Airlines has my bag, but won’t release it

I am currently experiencing an extremely frustrating situation with American Airlines regarding a lost bag. This bag was removed from inside my luggage, and I have confirmed via Find My (AirPods) that my missing items is at DFW B29 Baggage area, and I have even had the DFW terminal police verify that American Airlines has the bag in their possession.

Despite filing a delayed baggage claim and contacting customer service repeatedly, I only received one generic response and one phone call from a person with a heavy French accent. The airline acknowledges they have the bag but refuses to facilitate its return.

Has anyone experienced a similar issue at DFW or with American Airlines baggage recovery? Does anyone have advice on how to escalate this beyond the standard claims process to actually get my property back?

They even opened my airpods and, removed them from the case, and put them back.

Someone at American, PLEASE HELP

Airport police DFW non-emergency number found the bag with American and said American has it in their possession, but I am 18 hours later and still no bag. I filed a claim, but still no bag. What can I do!
