Log
- Published Page location: https://cabo.lam1.us/Weeks/2026/Fall_Again
- On Thursday, September 10, 2026 I selected two Alaska Airlines Lounge passes for my 55K points milestone awards.
- The 5 hours 27 minutes layover on the return itinerary is the longest one on my itineraries for the remainder of the year so I will use one of the lounge passes for it.
- On Tuesday, May 12, 2026 I got notification that both itineraries changed.
- YTQDTW major change leaving FAI over 3 hours later and getting to SJD over an hour later.
- YTNHDC minor time changes for new flight numbers
- On Tuesday, April 28, 2026 I saw a schedule change for the SJD SEA segment on Tuesday, October 27, 2026 that adds four hours to my SEA layover.
- When I look online the only shorter whole trip time adds an extra stop in Anchorage.
- The new schedule means I have to take the 9:30 shuttle to the airport.
- On Wednesday, April 15, 2026 I got notice of a schedule change for both itineraries.
- For the FAI to SJD itinerary three hours were added to the SEA layover and I will arrive at 3:05 pm instead of 12:30 pm.
- For the SJD to FAI itinerary I take off an hour later but still have almost two hours to clear customs, reenter security in Seattle (SEA), and get to departure gate.
- On Thursday, April 2, 2026 I Called 210-756-1472 to book some Summer Getaway 2026 weeks this summer.
- I booked three weeks in June and July at $1,250.00 per week for $3,750.00 all in a one bedroom master suite.
- 1,528 + 1,816 = 3,344 * 2 = 6,688 Elite Qualifying Miles * 6 = 40,128 EQ miles YTD for $840.90
