Did this get split from another topic? It starts with a reply to a post I cannot find.

From what I've observed, most convention official hotels are in downtown Chicago. There's not all that much by McCormick Place. I am sure that's why they built the busway was built between downtown Chicago and McCormick Place in the former Illinois Central freight right-of-way (if you've ever...

The problem I have with the article is it bringing up the perceived crying need for one-seat service between the airport and convention center (McCormick Place). When I was working, I went to quite a few conventions and not once did I ever go directly between the airport and convention center -...

From my own experience, you will have service during the extended stops in the Canadian Shield such as Sioux Lookout and Hornepayne. Also is some of the smaller towns but given the train may not even stop, only for a minute or so.

Much more likely it was the missing II. But I'm going to take back what I wrote earlier as going back to some old boarding passes, I see differences between on the name is displayed on boarding passes between different carriers (all of these were using employee/retiree flight benefits which...

Thats's normal in how names are shown on airline tickets - spaces are removed. It should not have caused any issues. Did you actually have a problem checking-in on-line or at a kiosk or did you just assume there would be a problem and went to check-in agent? The "names must match exactly" is...

Zephyr17, thanks. I didn't know that RM's service facility was on CN.

Since the Rocky Mountaineer's Vancouver station is adjacent to Pacific Central Station (Via and Amtrak), I'm surprised you were surprised to use the same route Via and Amtrak use. Looking on Google Earth, while there is a connection from near Pacific Central Station to the CP by the waterfront...

I wonder what ca2zhawkeye's actual concern about altitude is and how much adaptation he or she needs or is expecting. If you fly, you routinely go from airport altitude to a cabin pressure altitude of 7,000 to 8,000 in about 30 minutes and then back down at the destination. If you drive I-70...

While Customs regulations are the same, the poster may be thinking of the limits on liquids on airplanes. That's an air security restriction, not a border crossing restriction.

Metro managed to do that back in 10/2018 at Roselle West with a deadhead train (was supposed to go into service at Roselle). Apparently, the switch threw underneath the car yet somehow, the car stayed on the rails. I was able to watch the cleanup and Metra did not try to move the car but rather...

Having an airline change your seat in the same class of service and having an airline change you to a lower class of service (the equivalent of what happened to the OP) are two different things. Historically, your ticket on an airline entitled you to "a" seat in your class of service, not a...

Did it once on the LSL after a flight cancellation (so booking just a few hours ahead). Was trying to book a roomette SYR-CHI. Said available but then the dreaded not really meaning it was two different rooms. Tried ROC-CHI and same thing. Tried BUF-CHI and was good. So then booked business...

I rode it a few times in the early Amtrak days between NYP and New London. By then, it was stopping in New London both directions and Amtrak had moved it and everything else from the New Haven to NYP. I was lucky in that I was always able to snag a seat in the front forward-facing dome; I was...

Just had my first issue with FNBO. I was trying to update Auto-Pay to a different bank account and found that they only take up to 16 digits for the account number. Mine is 17 which is the maximum permitted by the specifications for bank account numbers. Not a huge problem as I'm not closing the...

General customer service was able to help. Turned out the most recent address change was passed to them by BofA but while we have a PO Box while we stay in an extended stay hotel waiting on house completion, it appears BofA (which like most financial institutions requires a physical residence...

As I mentioned above, we're in the process of moving and as a result, have not received the new cards. Back a page or two was a link to an FAQ that now appears to be gone. But it listed a phone number to call. That phone number is now essentially out of service (tells you the "opt out" period is...

Thanks. So unfortunately, if the USPS does its job, it gets returned. And with no information about what the new account number is, probably difficult to call and get it updated.

We're in the process of moving with mail being forwarded. For anyone who has received the new card and still has the envelope it came in, does it have a "do not forward" or equivalent endorsement on it?

Following up my own post: I did get the mailed statement today and it also has "Auto Pay Active" on it so for Trollopian whose post the above was replying to, since your statement did not say that, I'd assume they turned it off for some reason.
