Topic Wiki

This is the thread where you can ask any random question you have. Feel free to ask even the most basic questions that you otherwise might be embarrassed to ask. This is the thread for beginners, so veterans here will treat you nicely. Ask a beginner's Q in some other threads and no guarantee of that same treatment. ;)
People here want to help, so just have some patience, follow the tips below and hopefully someone will help you when they have a chance.

If you looking for a particular thread you once saw and can't find it, this is not the place to ask. Check out Help Me Find It and ask there.

How to ask a question in this thread:
Click the blue reply button at the top or bottom of the page, type your question, and click post!

Some helpful tips for eliciting answers from other members:
- Keep your question short and precise. No one wants to read a megillah.
- The more questions you ask in one post, the less likely any will be answered. People are willing to answer a question or two, but if you ask all the questions that apply to your particular issue, you're expecting to be spoonfed. Members don't like holding out the spoon, so ask accordingly.

OT: are you still using it?
Mine was shut down, but my wife has it in the sock drawer. I may bring it out now and just take the 50k a year it offers.

To open a Wells Fargo card online, the site says I need to have a bank account with them... Does anyone know if online account works? Does it matter if I don't live anywhere near a branch?
Just curious. What is the benefit of a WF card? Are you talking about a CC or DC?  TIA.

Need guidance for booking a paid ticket and using the 3x and fuel dumping. Familiar with ITA. Was at the seminar but I'm still not understanding. Any ideas? I need guidance for ex-TLV routing thru NYC or PHL for a day then to DEN, then back to EWR for 5 days before returning to TLV. Thank you!

You got your answer in the other thread you asked in. No one will give this stuff away just like that. Don't think it's talked about here, but a good place to start might be here, http://travelcodex.com/2012/01/introduction-to-fuel-dumping/

Nope, it's against forum rules (let us know how many PMs you get tonight though ;) )

Would telling the check in agent that you're going to need something from the bags in Cleveland help?
It might but I can't risk it because if they can't do it then I'm stuck.

If you're getting out in CLE, try having a longer connection time. Or even overnight.

I applied for 2 Chase cards (2BM) and was accepted for the first. The second one was pending, after calling the reconsideration line they told me that it was rejected. Any use in trying to call again?
