AA schedule changes again – and my 1 minute problem
The best laid plans can blow up when an airline makes even a modest schedule change. A trip in August (which I have had booked since November) imploded when a one minute shortfall in connecting times caused AA to drop the rest of my flights. Catching it in time, and having a plan about how I wanted it fixed, saved a lot of grief and a shed load of Tier Points.

The weirdness of travel…or specifically other passengers!
Sometimes passengers surprise you. It’s just this trip that they did this in a bad way.

The old Radisson at LAX has become a Hyatt affiliate hotel and so earns stay credits with Gold Passport, my must have frequent stay scheme.

The hotel does a great job at protecting you from aircraft noise and run a good shuttle to and from the airport. Well worth considering if you need a stay in the LAX area.
