Enjoy! Nothing too special about leaving LAX. *G F lounge was nothing special, though I always love the outside patio in the J lounge.

Don't forget to go to the ANA F lounge right after security in NRT (same level, don't take the escalator or elevator down). Great showers and empty when I was there.

Have a safe flight!!!

A teddy bear. I forgot to ask for one and wasn't offered one. And a double bed if the seats are available.

Minhagei Lita was not to wear the tzitzis outside, but tuck it in. CC being a Musar holdout, it makes complete sense that they tuck in their tzitzis. In Musar land you don't flaunt your piety.

no such minhag. Mishneh Berurah writes they must be seen, and the strings may not touch the skin!

My gf and I (Now fiancée after a successful suite proposal

) had the double bed in Row 2.

The staff video'd my proposal and congratulated us with 2 bears and a cake!

We had a nice shower in ANA Lounge!

Now we are sitting in Lounge waiting for TPR to open.

It's raining outside.. Any recommendations for ways to kill time before our flight to KBV in 8 hours??

Congrats!!! I'm glad the bed worked out in row 2.
Did you make it in to TPR in the end? If you did you'd be the 2nd exception here in 2 weeks. Maybe they changed their policy? Sounds like a fun trip. Enjoy Thailand!

I am well aware of the Mishnah Brurah 8:26 and I am sure you know that it was not followed in Lita, not even in Radin. This doesn't take anything away from the greatness of the Chofetz Chaim. He paskened like the M"A against the prevailing custom of his time and community. For someone to say that "no such minhag" is grossly inaccurate.
