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.

Oh dear. Main course was worse. A small dry lump of “beef” that was just not something worth eating. This food is worse than I’ve had in economy years ago. The staff don’t seem surprised. Is anyone standing for this in first? Really?.

When you excitedly fly @British_Airways First and the food is … bad. Really bad. Come on, no one serious is ok with the dry flavourless terrine you just served me. Bread couldn’t be split it was so hard. Regret every time I fly BA, my fault for trying again.

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.

Such a shame I can't escape the shockingly unempathetic experience of last years cancellation when trying to enjoy this years @fosgoodwood - could have been so different on the day, now a year later and still zero effort to rebuild any trust with long term attendees. Sad.

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.

Hey @landroverusa I found a decent independent, and they found a landslide of unrelated errors ("as is usual"). PAS is declared "more working than broken, be thankful", we laughed, I cried a bit inside & coveted the @Porsche in the next bay getting an exhaust upgrade.

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).

Hey @lotuscars I really want an Emira but the local dealer is so SKETCHY looking it's just not going to happen. Do you have a way of offering the same kind of viewing/specifying experience @harrym_vids shared but in the US?.

Well @AmericanAir pilots “timing out” after pushback is just poor planning. Add that to the woeful comms, surly staff, general disorder of your boarding, poor mask enforcement, patchy WiFi, dirty planes and I’m not sure I’m feeling your “welcome back” to travel.
