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!

Times like that when being in Envoy really pays off.  Delays aren't nearly as bad in the pointy side of the plane.
Much worse for business guys because now theyll probably get a 767 with horrible seats.

The secure  area where we boarded the plane is now open to the rest of the airport so they are trying to track down a tsa crew to secure that terminal  in the meantime they are holding us on the plane like a bunch of cattle

The law is that after 3 hours, they must go back to the gate and give people the option to get off the plane. At least that's what I understood from the time I got stuck on the runway.

I didnt read thru this whole thread, but how early do you have to go to the airport in LGA before the flight?
Is this considered domestic as far as security is concerned or international?
Do you have to go the 3 hours before, or because it flies to PHL it is a shorter timeframe?

I flew on the 16th ewr-phl-tlv and had a 55 minute stop. I was one of the later ones on the plane but the fought still had quite a line to board even I got there. So 55 minutes was enough time.
And for those asking how early to come to the airport, I got to the airport about 57 minutes before the flight and they checked my bags without any problems.
In regards to mileage I credited my miles to Aegean. I only took the first half and my miles were already credited for the first half. (I will not be able to answer if they will take the miles back (which is highly unlikely) bc I am taking the whole flight.
