I was shocked as well. Flight credits that expire when you can’t fly but saying our kids can fly. It was a family trip and they are minors.

I think having a stroke with medical documentation is a legit reason for a refund but that’s just me

[Nick Colyer @vNickC]

I’ve honestly had good service historically so I’m hoping someone at @AmericanAir can cut through this mess and improve the process. This feels like some antiquated automated procedures. I agree though, almost no contact, can’t explain or talk to anyone. Just simple “claim denied” but it’s clear to me they don’t have all the info or are trying to get it sadly :(

[Nick Colyer @vNickC]

. @AmericanAir is there anyone that can please help me with a refund? I had a brain bleed in March, was not cleared to fly and was told when we called we would get a refund. After 2 months of back and forth emails through [email protected] I just got a note saying my documentation is not sufficient and decision is final. What happened to the days of being able to talk to someone? I’ve been exec plat and platinum pro for a decade almost. So shocked at this and I’ll be trying my credit card insurance but some flexibility for a trip credit or something would have at least been helpful.

Over 600k miles flown and I’m sad to have to consider switching airline because of one time I asked for an exception.

remember waiting hours for this to finish

The Senate must enact the will of the people

[Don Tracy @DonTracyForIL]

You need a photo ID to board a plane or cash a check.

It should be required to vote in federal elections too.

The SAVE Act requires proof of citizenship and voter ID.

These are basic safeguards that a majority of Americans support.

@CongressmanRaja and @RepRobinKelly voted against it.

I will vote YES in the U.S. Senate.

@DonTracyForIL @CongressmanRaja @RepRobinKelly Unfortunately @RepUnderwood is on that list as well and just lost my vote for the future. Sad to see what’s happening to the Democratic Party.

I just got back from the UAE and shared my thoughts with Tammy Duckworth office but waiting for time on Lauren’s calendar still.

The House just voted 372–53 to reaffirm that Iran is the world’s largest state sponsor of terrorism.

Among the 53 voting NO: Illinois’ @CongressmanRaja & @RepRobinKelly.

[Don Tracy @DonTracyForIL]

Condemning terrorism should be an easy vote.
For some career politicians, apparently it isn’t.

Illinois deserves strength, leadership, and common sense.

@DonTracyForIL @CongressmanRaja @RepRobinKelly I just saw that and it made me explore other candidates for Senate in our state. Would love to meet you to discuss your positions on key matters.

[The Wall Street Journal @WSJ]

One of the most outspoken backers of President Trump’s strike in Iran has been a Democrat—Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman. 🔗 https://t.co/t01EjXhm9S

[U.S. Senator John Fetterman @SenFettermanPA]

Why do Democrats now universally condemn what achieves a top, longstanding Democratic priority?

[Nick Colyer @vNickC]

We need more people who can articulate the issues like Kemi

United Arab Emirates: The U.S. government is ready to help Americans leave the Middle East if you choose to take advantage of the options available. Please complete this form so the Department of State can better assist you and provide you with timely updates: https://t.co/CKvLJIgvzM. Limited commercial flights are currently operating out of international airports in the UAE. Passengers are advised not to travel to the airport unless they hold a confirmed ticket and have been explicitly advised by their airline to do so. There are overland routes to Oman and Saudi Arabia where commercial options to depart the region are operating, but there are reports of congestion. Read more: https://t.co/Rpa67UCrAx

Grateful for @emirates

Amazing support and flight crew
We got out to TAIPEI from DBX and slowly making our way home #DubaiStrong

[Nick Colyer @vNickC]

really need help @emirates - i'm just trying to confirm to any of the 3 destinations options he gave us. we are happy to pay the fair diff, just get us confirmed please.

[Nick Colyer @vNickC]

@emirates I need someone to respond to my DM please. We were midway through a convo on moving flight and he's gone dark.

[James Blunt @JBlunt1018]

Called the State Department emergency number because the advisory said “depart via commercial means” and to call if you need assistance arranging departure.

Airspace is shut. Airports aren’t functioning. Airlines can’t be reached.

After 30 minutes on the line, they read back the same security update posted online.

I understand protocols. I understand thresholds for evacuation.

But telling Americans to “depart now” when there are no commercial options and offering no practical pathway is frustrating to say the least:
