help with LANPASS reservation LGA-YYZ
« on: June 16, 2010, 12:51:42 PM »
i need to pick up my daughter from toronto on June 29th. I wanted to use my LANPASS to fly LGA to YYZ in the afternoon and back that night.  When i called LANPASS they only could book a couple of flights in the morning each way.  AA.com shows milesaver availability all day - anyone know how to get this done?

i would prefer to leave LGA at 1:50 or 3PM and return from YYZ on the 7:25PM flight

when you call back mention to the agent that you had spoken to an agent before, and found some available flights at ..... give the flight info you found online.   i prefer to say it like that so youre not actually lying    they're usually much more helpful if you give them the exact info and theyre not on the defensive bec they think you got the info from one of their own agents

How are you getting your daughter back? Does LAN have one way awards?

The latest available flight is actually at 6:25pm so unless you don't mind a hour 35 min turnaround you should take the 1:50pm.
I'm getting all the flights on Qantas, you shouldn't have a problem with Lan.
Post back what happens.

If you have to leave the airport its cutting really tight.

 since it seems shes a Minor and if you wont be on the other side of Security then they may just want to charge for the UM fee, even thou you will be on the same flight.

Id call and get it all in writing on both records that they shouldnt charge

called back with the flight numbers. took them a half hour but the flight is booked.  I hope 2.5 hour window will be enough.

Are we laying odds on a guys with a 2.5 hour window for a round trip, no luggage, getting "randomly" stripped searched?
