HUCA tips:

1) To avoid being told "You already called about this and were told no". The trick is to call about other things in the middle, so when the rep looks at the notes of the last few calls it's other stuff.

2) To avoid speaking to the same rep you just spoke to. The trick is to use 2 phones, so when the tzaddik answers, you quickly call on the other line and ensure you get a different one.

Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

And yet, I didn't share that yet.
So I shared now shush
Good point. This seems to be in line with Dan's protocol and reasonable. He shared on DDF but is asking that it not be made into a DDMS post if I am understanding correctly.

If you can read the thread you can figure it out. Its right there in the open. And the shhh was payback for another shhh.
Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.

If you have been paying attention there is a common thread between what that guy had and what others have had as well.

Stopping in WAW for 23.5 couldn't get UA to show it as one booking.
