To circle back – you CAN go to other terminals at SFO.
We abandoned the idea initially and then tried after further posts.
But ended up being turned away at all three lounges at around 11:30am.
We are now calling it the NO PRIORITY PASS.

MemberMay 22, 2024 at 1:15 pm in reply to: Anyone Have Experience Flying To Mexico For Dental Work?I travel to Asia once a year and have gone to Bangkok International Dental Center for the last 5 years and it is great.
Very affordable and it is like any facility you’d find in the US (or even better).
Asia is of course very far compared to Mexico, but you can make a vacation out of it.

I never tip at airport lounges out of principle.
You are paying for a ticket and the lounge is a service included in the ticket, so there shouldn’t be any extra tipping required.
We don’t tip the flight attendants, pilots, check-in staff, or luggage staff.
Nor do we tip the workers at Mcdonald’s at the airport.

MemberApril 27, 2024 at 4:33 pm in reply to: How To Calculate Avios Needed For Iberia Award?Sign up for Avios For Thoughts, and you will get a bonus of 100 points when you verify your email.
That should give you some points to start with.
If you do not receive the sign-up bonus, just complete a survey.
I did this recently, and it worked perfectly.
I was able to get 44,000 points for a business class flight from Dallas/Fort Worth to Madrid.

MemberApril 18, 2024 at 5:09 pm in reply to: What’s Best JFK Terminal 1 Priority Pass Lounge?I can’t remember the name, but I used the one outside that lets you skip the line through security.
We were waiting for a friend, and Priority Pass (via Amex) gives access to a guest.
It’s just basic food and self-serve drinks.
You can pour your own wine and grab your beer from the fridge.

I have consistently used Sixt and have been highly satisfied with their service.
They offer superior vehicles at competitive prices compared to major competitors.
It’s worth noting they are meticulous about damage, so it’s advisable to thoroughly photograph the car before departing the rental office to document its initial condition.
Additionally, I frequently utilize their services in the USA with great satisfaction.

MemberMarch 20, 2024 at 10:39 am in reply to: What’s Best Airline From Bangkok To Phnom Penh?Bangkok Airways and Thai Airways are most expensive.
There are lots of low cost carriers like Air Asia for $30.
It is a short flight so I personally would look into those.

How to prevent Wyndham points from expiring

MemberMarch 11, 2024 at 7:49 pm in reply to: What’s Best Istanbul Hotel With Sea View Using Points?During my two visits to Turkey, I opted for cash payments for my accommodations instead of luxury brand hotels.
I managed to book 4-star hotels for under $100 in various cities.
My suggestion is to check the cash prices before using a significant amount of points, as Turkey is known for being very budget-friendly.

MemberFebruary 16, 2024 at 7:13 pm in reply to: Is Club Wyndham The Same As Wyndham Rewards?Wyndham Rewards and Club Wyndham are 2 separate programs.
You can book Wyndham Hotels with Wyndham Rewards points.
You can get Wyndham Rewards points by transferring your Capital One Miles into Wyndham Rewards points.
Club Wyndham are their timeshare properties, which I don’t believe you can book with points.
