“My five year old granddaughter sits on her own all the time, so no.” - says the @AmericanAir gate agent here in ORD when asked if we can move our youngest to a seat next to one of us after getting rescheduled and reassigned due to weather. #CustomerServiceFail

Losing the will to live here in Buffalo @shakeshack …. 28 minutes and counting. Most confusing as there was no line when we ordered.

Heads up to frequent travelers, avoid routes where @AlaskaAir is the carrier if you book through a partner. They will downgrade your boarding post check in, they will take your money for a seat upgrade and they will not honor it. “System says no”. Disappointing.

Hey @AmericanAir tried 4x to upgrade my flight with the “available upgrade”, each time payment taken then it errors. Gate agent equally baffled. I get it though, you really want me to get the message and spend my money with @united

Oh dear @British_Airways - just when I’m forgetting one bad experience, you pop up with another shocker. Demanding another $1000 a couple of hours before a flight is a new one. And a new low. This whole family is done with BA after the last two days. Suggestions?

You have to lay a thousand tiny bets for even one to pay off. Lay many.

One of the most subdued first time winner's radio I've ever heard. Utterly horrible race management from McLaren once again, denying the Australian the pure and unbridled jubilation he should have felt.

If you were Lando, would you give the place back?

Extremely disappointed with the racing spirit of @McLarenF1 in Hungary - this isn't racing, @LandoNorris pasted @OscarPiastri fair and square. Even with constant whining to slow down, and fake tire management messages on the radio every sector he couldn't close on Lando. Dumb.

Hey @AmericanAir on my third attempt to get out of HSV due to your delays. Gate agent is being super kind to latecomers, now 35 mins late pushing. Pls have your DCA agents be so kind to me because I’m likely missing my connection and not getting home, again.

Crushed by the cancellation of @fosgoodwood yesterday. Doubly so when waking up to THE SAME WEATHER this morning. Flew in from the US after last going 15 years ago. Not exactly the memories I was hoping to create. #GoodwoodFoS

I love(d) @Sonos - but an errant update by a family member has reminded me of the S1 S2 BS (and rendered most of the system unusable until I reset every single device). I’m done, time to run cables and find an alternative. If you pitch your stall on usability, tread carefully.

Hello all! Look what the post brought all the way from the UK to the US, so we can celebrate one of our favorite TV shows through the magic of novelty talking plushies. Thank you @robertpopper for some of our favorite TV characters (after Dr Alan Statham).
