Meh. Stopped listening after the fake news in literally the first 5 seconds of the video.
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.

The filming is good, but his style grates on my ears.

I also had issues with ElAl and filed a DOT complaint which they never respond to. Any tips to get them to answer?

They never responded? Then it might have felt thru the cracks (even by the DOT)

Simply by doing another one might just help

Are Matmid points expiring now after 36 months or there is an extension due to covid?

How does one add baggage online for today's flight? They're not letting me do it online. How much will it cost if I do it at the airport?

TLV-CDG in LY J 789

43,800 QF Miles = 2.15 CPM.

Flight just got downgraded from a 787 to 777. Any way to get LY to assign row 2 (former F class), or do they block it off completely? It shows “open” on seat map, but unavailable to assign online.

It's open for TP at time of booking. Pretty sure for PL as well
They fill it up during check-in, if they need extra J space.

If you call them and yell I'm quite confident they would give you

Thanks. Called them and after a long hold, they told me they cannot assign that row, because it is going to be used by the flight crew if needed.

Please let me know after the flight if crew or pax end up sitting there
