THANKS NETZIH!!

I am still looking for data points as to whether people skipping the flight to YYZ will get partner credit. I believe the earliest flights available in this deal were in November (although if I'm wrong and people were already able to take some of those flights, please correct me), so I assume we'll have to wait until mid-to-late November for the brave individuals who chance it to educate the rest of us.

1) Don't credit your miles to United. There have been many reports of United miles being clawed!

Hass anyone ever personally been upgraded by sweettalking the agents on an international flight? With status or without?

My wife and I have been upgraded for our honeymoon with a bit of sweet talking.

I just need some clarification to settle my nerves that on my way back from TLV-PHL-YYZ that if I book a flight from PHL to ORD and not take the  YYZ flight then I can pick up my bags in PHL to take them to ORD right?

Good luck. Hope no issues with flights, unless you are ok with and hope to get some compensation.

I have tickets to israel through this booking and the one from last night on united. I would prefer the United as it is direct.
I don't want to try to cancel the US air reservation yet because we dont know if the UA tickets will get honored. My concern is getting stuck with both tickets and that would be useless as they are for the same dates.

In case UA honors these tickets, have many people been able to cancel the US Airways reservations recently? There was a very minor schedule change in one of my flights.

Please chime in with advice.

Why go through the hassle? Why not just take a bus?

Doesn't make sense if you have more then 1 person...

Bus tickets are $12.

I may not be a mathematician, but it'd seem to me that, in addition to finding a person(s) to split it with, at $75 for a one way rental, it'd take like 6+ people for it to make sense.

Maybe it's 12 each but I think you still need to get to the bus station and home from Manhattan...

It still won't come out even if you take subway from City.

But I guess for convenience, it may make sense.
