Date: July 19th, 2019 3:26 PM Author: Histrionic tan quadroon sanctuary ljl at these cucks: "Even if everything goes well for OP on this trip, isn't it possible that a later audit might happen and expose the error? I can see this potentially putting OP on a naughty list, or even AA asking for $$. " |
|
Date: July 19th, 2019 5:33 PM Author: Histrionic tan quadroon sanctuary another cuck: "This is an obvious error, why take advantage of someone's mistake, whether it is with an individual or a corporation? I know there would be much whining if AA shortchanges someone miles or an SWU, but if the error is in the favor people tend to just take it as if it was something God willed. (On found money:...... Let's toss it in the air. Whatever God wants, God keeps)" |

Date: July 19th, 2019 5:45 PM Author: honey-headed tanning salon So the guy wants to fly an extra 6700 miles (11 hours one way) to get a “free” 7900 miles, which are worth something like $80? Lmao.
Then he’ll have to pay or burn miles to fly back. |
 |
Date: July 19th, 2019 5:48 PM Author: Histrionic tan quadroon sanctuary low iq schtick?
1) these are elite qualifying miles which are far more valuable than their redemption value alone
2) he seems to want to go to the far-away place as a destination. why not take a free trip? |
|
Date: July 19th, 2019 5:50 PM Author: honey-headed tanning salon 1) okay, so it’s worth more than $80? What are 7900 eqms worth?
2) he still has to pay to fly back
|
|
Date: July 19th, 2019 5:55 PM Author: Histrionic tan quadroon sanctuary 1) flyertalk bros look to pay around 3-3.5 cents per EQM for a mileage run deal. check the mileage run forum. that means he'd have to pay say ~$250-300 if he wanted to take a MR at some other time to get 7900 EQMs, assuming he can even find such a deal from his originating city.
2) if he wants to go to the city anyway, it's half a free tip. if he's doing it just as a MR, the assumption is that he'd otherwise need to be taking a MR at some other time and needs the EQMs. |
|
Date: July 19th, 2019 6:19 PM Author: honey-headed tanning salon 1) even at $300, not sure it’s worth sitting on a plane for an extra 11 hours
2) round trip tickets are usually less than 2x the one way price, so it’s probably like getting 50% off the outbound flight
I’m not saying it’s valueless, but seems like a lot of hassle to earn 8k miles.
It’s also clearly unethical, but fuck airlines. |
|
Date: July 19th, 2019 6:32 PM Author: Histrionic tan quadroon sanctuary 1) flyertalk dorks take MRs to get status. that's the premise of FT. saying MRs are dumb is fighting the hypo.
2) this was true the 1980s. most RT tickets nowadays don't come out cheaper than as purchased as one-ways.
is it unethical? bank makes an error in your favor, collect $200. |
|
Date: July 19th, 2019 7:49 PM Author: honey-headed tanning salon 1) not sure where in the hypo it says to assume I’m a flyer talk autist 2) that’s not been my experience
Definitely unethical. Same as if a bank teller accidentally hands you 100s unstead if 20s. |
|
Date: July 19th, 2019 7:53 PM Author: Beady-eyed stead half-breed you don't actually get to keep the $200 if the bank makes an error in your favor, I learned this the hard way once (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4306224&forum_id=2#38558600) |
|
Date: July 19th, 2019 7:54 PM Author: Histrionic tan quadroon sanctuary you mean they discovered it? the bank error in your favor assumption is they dont discover it
whatever happened w that ATM what was spitting out $100s instead of 20's |
|
Date: July 19th, 2019 7:58 PM Author: Beady-eyed stead half-breed This was like 20 years ago. I was maybe in middle school, maybe early high school. one of my parents went to the bank in person to make a deposit and they accidentally deposited like 100x the amount into the account. Teller made a typo or whatever.
My parents SELF REPORTED and the transaction got undone. I got MAF at them saying they should not have reported. Then I searched on Yahoo (no Google yet) and it turns out the laws are very pro-bank in this situation. |
|
Date: July 19th, 2019 8:02 PM Author: Histrionic tan quadroon sanctuary yeah the problem is a $200 error in your favor isnt going to get noticed but a $20,000 error is.
my parents sold their car on CL for cash and deposited 1500 and the teller put in 3500. nobody ever caught it |

|
Date: July 19th, 2019 8:19 PM Author: Razzle faggot firefighter kitchen If we was aspies we could try to figure it out by:
-places in north America dat had bad weather yesterday -places AA flies approx 7900 miles from somewhere in USA...I assume the whole trip on AA? -his poastin history to figure out where he usually fly from -cities among the above wit similar airport codes |

|
Date: July 21st, 2019 12:37 AM Author: Histrionic tan quadroon sanctuary he said HE doesnt need a visa. maybe he has a chinese visa already, or it's a <72 hour transit visa stay. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4306224&forum_id=2#38563996) |

FT is much worse than it was 10 yrs ago |
|
Date: July 21st, 2019 11:47 AM Author: motley sable death wish if the error is fucking 7.9k miles away and he fucking needs a passport and he's on the east coast in an area with multiple intl airports it likely is NYC and more than 7.9k miles puts him past fucking dubai if he is flying east, or shanghai going west
so wtf wldnt he take that, u idiots are making it sound like it was accidently changed to a domestic flight somewhere but this is literally the difference of flying like NYC-Chicago errored to NYC-Shanghai
of course fuck AA and take it |
