Hey! Any Something Fishy workshops coming up there??
Yes, in fact! May 12-17 – see here for the details: https://forums.dansdeals.com/index.php?topic=62659.msg2064322#msg2064322
Did Delta change its rules? Seeing that they now specify checked bag for free ONLY if booked with the card: “If you have an eligible SkyMiles Credit Card from American Express, you receive your First Bag Free on Delta flights booked with your SkyMiles Credit Card. ” (https://www.delta.com/content/www/en_US/traveling-with-us/baggage/before-your-trip/checked.html)
That is not enforced. United is the only airline that enforces that rule.
If I choose to pay by points in forfeiting protection from Chase sapphire reserve or it still applies?
Still applies.
tx booked! October is Prime northern lights watching time
Northern lights are not garaunteed and it is the low time in the cycle. Go with the plan for seeing the Northerm lights to be an added bonus but not the main reason.
The Chabad of Iceland is providing kosher catered meals. They are wonderful!
Awesome, have a menu or pictures?
Please share a trip report on DDF! https://forums.dansdeals.com/index.php?board=25.0
Easier and cheaper to cook chicken / meat before coming and freeze/ bring it along.
Can I buy it with my chase ink business preffered for 1.5 cents per points?
1.25 cents.
Have been to or passed through Iceland 5 times. The Chabad is providing school food for sale and they also have pics on their website of what in the stores are kosher.
Did I read this wrong? You’re posting 1 way fares? This is a deal?
No. As the title says, this is a round-trip fare.
this price is not showing. Gives me $380
For which route and dates? Seats on are limited on each date.
June 23-27 on Delta
“You must stay for at least one Saturday night for the lowest fares.”
not showing me that price from Nov 21st to Nov 26th or 27th
