Np, that's not the wiki. Recently, you can't view wikis on tapatalk. However, the op of this thread does provide a link to a wiki which does not have yq on the list. For future reference you can always view wikis on tapatalk by,clicking the three dots on top right and choosing web view.

PUTPAC: Pick up the phone and call.
Example:
Q: Why can't I find any availability on BA.com for JFK-LAX to fly on AA?
A: PUTPAC!

Funny im seeing this now, i asked you in monsey where to get a number for BA that doesnt have a 30 minute wait every time... your answer was "Why do you ever need to call?"
