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!

Seems like people were able to get it dropped due to weather...

I think it would be great if dan would post online to try to drop the leg on the main site. Can you imagine US still hasn't cancelled their flights from Ewr to phl for today!!

And there is a ground stop for PHL, which means flights TO PHL are delayed 87 minutes on average!

So here is the saga of 13 people on yesterday's LGA-PHL-MUC-TLV flight originating at 3:35 pm on 11/26.   The flight was only slightly delayed out of LGA leaving at 4:15 PM.
Got into Philly on time. Slightly delayed out of PHL leaving at 7:15 pm.  Got into Munich on time but that is where it went all wrong.  There were no directions on how to get to the Elal terminal F which is very far from where we landed.  There was about an hour between when we landed to get to the flight. By the time we got to terminal F Elal had closed the terminal and there was no way to get in. Elal flight left without us. After sending us from one terminal to another Usairways booked us to Frankfurt and now another 3 hour layover until we get to TLV at 11pm.

There will be no food on the planes. What do you think compensation should be and to whom should we address?
i was on that itinerary...in muc i made the elal flight tho,u had to go thru passport control,baggage claim,customs...walk outside for prob 7 min to terminal f...pretty cold too..there were signs throughout the process pointing towards F  altho there was only ONE info desk.  i was wondering why so many ppl from the phl flight were missing

I'm supposed be taking off from LGA at 5:59 (they say landing at 7:20) and leaving PHL at 8:50. Is it worth to try to get on an earlier flight? Assuming I'm delayed and miss the flight out of PHL, what's the process? Thanks.

Wow!! Agents where waiting by the baggage claims to take you to Toronto  lol I kept walking.. But some hasdim got scared and they said yes we are going Toronto  they said ohh good we will take you they also harassed people who said they are not going to Toronto and took there luggage tags!!

"Did you tell the tsa agent that you where not going to Toronto"

Scare tactics. But at the end of the day what can they do???

Don't know if this is common practice.  Sometimes when I land in LGA,  there are agents by baggage claim checking my claim ticket against my bag ticket and ripping it off.

The agent looked at my tag and pushed me into baggage recheck to have my bags checked for Toronto. In the end when more people came she get overwhelmed and I went out she then wripped two of my there tags. Bailbino it was me she harrased me and pushed my cart to the other side and blocked me from exiting

why cant you rip the tags off when you take it off the carousel or after you walk through customs so they dont see the toronto tag?

On my ticket I see I land in terminal A and take off to Toronto in terminal F, Are you supposed to recheck bags in Terminal A?
I figure I can say that i will go to Terminal F by myself..... Or try to rip the tags off as we remove them from carousel...
I guess that they are noticing the empty PHL to YYZ flight.....
