    Fly Ahead Benefit

    Just echoing what others have said. Unless the flight is 100% full (very unlikely in the business cabin these days) i have never had a problem, even with checked baggage.

    Staying classy in the VA Lounge

    I wonder what they are after - TSA?

    I have had the opposite. Repacked by just shoving everything in that they had unrolled. Opening that bag was a bit of a shock.

    Employer Perks you wish you got

    Those with the Slim Sleeve, have any of you noticed the life span of the credit cards inside the pull out part seem to be reduced? The corners of the plastic seem to peel up much sooner than normal.

    777 PE for a tall person

    I am not sure what happened. I thought i had 23b but was handed a 23a boarding pass. The woman next to me refused to move seats, then spent the entire flight with her feet up on the seat (yup she was the short).

    777 PE for a tall person

    I ended up in 23A. Worst flight of my life. Would have preferred economy at this point at least i can get my feet under the seat in front most if i contort. Here i just had a hard edge of a wall cavity jammed into my knee caps. So an update for tall people, avoid seat 23A.
