British Airways Rocks!

We just checked in to our BA flight to London and to our surprise they upgraded our seats to business! The guy at the counter didn’t know why but figured maybe because the flight is overbooked. It’s Nats birthday today so that turned out to be a nice gift from British Airways. Anyway if you haven’t booked a ticket yet today is the last day of their offer so don’t miss out! [Link]

  5. Mabrook says:

    HaHa.. There are no free lunchs.

    It is because you pimped flight offers for BA that you were upgraded.

  6. Lucky_Boy says:

    Pic or never happened.

  7. Holla says:

    Happy Bidet Nat. Mark you double posted dude.

  8. fahad says:

    LOL …someone is too happy! Posted twice.

  9. Ghostface says:

    pic’s needed as proof of upgrade. BA almost never upgrades. Are you a member of their Frequent flyer program?

  10. Anwar says:

    I love the way everyone on 248am.com pretends there fluent in English. Its so cute, lol.

  11. haha says:

    The gift would have been nicer if it came from you and not by chance from BA :)

  12. OMG, Nat is Aquarius?

    Fluent ‘in’ English. lol

  15. Ghostface says:

    We can always request “fluent english talk” lessons from the peanut gallery.

  16. Nasser says:

    I’d have to disagree with you. Out of the 3 flights I had with them, They downgraded me twice, with little compensation. And yes I did confirm my seats, both online and in the counter. Myself and many others returning to Kuwait who have been downgraded were quite angry.

    Hello BA

    and Happy Birthday Nat

  21. teach says:

    ”I would be glad to know which is worst, to be ravished a hundred times by Negro pirates, to have one buttock cut off, to run the gauntlet among the Bulgarians, to be whipped and hanged at an auto-da-fe, to be dissected, to be chained to an oar in a galley; and, in short, to experience all the miseries through which every one of us hath passed, or to remain here doing nothing” (Voltaie)

    You fly business class, and I’ll just stay here, shall I?

  22. teach says:

    VoltaiRe…………………..best I stay here and study…..

  23. That’s seems like the perfect start for your trip …

    Happy Birthday Nat,, wishing you the best and i hope you will spend the rest of your life with your man full of joy and happiness ,,,

    Have fun guys and capture a lot of nice ‘n sweet memorize :>

  24. Stafa says:

    Yeah this happens sometimes, I remember once getting an upgrade to Business class on my way to Miami from London

  25. ISF-Man says:

    Rocks? Really Mark? :P Rocks…

  26. Anwar says:

    I know im not fluent, im realistic.

    Let me give you an example,

    Lets say there was a nice picture of a tree posted on any other blog, the comments would look like for example,

    ‘What a nice tree’ or ‘what a cool tree’

    NOW on 248am.com it would say

    ‘Oh my what an astonishing well rooted deep into the earth fully bloomed tree’ OR ‘Thats such a heritaged old oaked tree with succulent sap aesthetically placed on top of a hill’

    I love the way everybody tries so hard lol, we should all start posting under the names Elizabeth, Harry, William and Charles as everybody on 248am.com seems to be part of the Windsor family. lol, its hilarious

  27. RaZ says:

    Anwar – a very easy solution for your problem, don’t read the blog !

  28. Ghostface says:

    Don’t blame Anwar!!!!!! Anwar went to private school. The rest of us r victims of the public school system! We try too hard to get KOC or good private sector job but cashier at Oula petrol station is only my future! Area 10 strikes again! Haram!

  29. Anwar says:

    3ala rasi Ghostface lol….

    Raz Paz – im saying its hilarious I f’in love it, why would i stop reading it ?
    C’mon give us some of your posh english skills which ur hiding behind ur educated facade hahahahaha

  30. Q8i browser says:

    lol anwar is hilarious

    dont blame him guys he is just jealous of the way u can easily express yourselves in english while he has some trouble expressing himself in english .. i bet he uses a dictionary every time he posts a comment

  31. Q8i browser says:

    @ Anwar
    3ala rasi Ghostface lol….

    LOOOOL ghostface was just making fun of u .. its not a complement dude

  32. Anwar says:

    Q8i browser i dont think youve had your coffee boost yet, wake up.
    Making fun at me or not, what he said was funny.
    Yalla we want to see some action, more comments directed to me plz.

    toni , you like sticky sap dont you ;)

  33. Nawara says:

    is it AN-war a boy, or an-WAR a girl?

  34. Anwar says:

    AN-war on the weekdays, an-WAR on the weekends lol

  35. muby says:

    LOL! What a typical Kuwaiti conversation! “”La ana is better zan you! I stody in gov hiskool but I using Microsoft Word to correcting me grammar and spolling”" LMAO!

    Btw.. English is not even a posh language! It’s just a language that many people speak nowadays! In my opinion any language that cannot be expressed into another language is amazing! Not English!

  36. muby says:

    **can be expressed :P

  37. Ghostface says:

    No need for disrespectful comments. Take it easy everyone. Mark’s post is “British Airways Rocks” and is intended to share information and his current experience. Joking around is ok but there is no need to be nasty and offensive.

  38. Anwar says:

    lol, what do u want me to say toni :) do u want me to ignore u or do u want me to physically pound u i dont mind both sound good to me

  39. Sfsa78 says:

    Anwar..
    So according to you, anyone that can speak english fluently should change thier name, and should be regarded as being posh? What a sad person you are. May i suggest that you invest more time and effort in learning basic english grammer, and less time in posting ignorant statements.

  40. Q8i browser says:

    ok william .. sorry i meant anwar .. what do u want now ?
    whats wrong with ppl expressing themselves that way ?
    why do u want ppl to talk in a simple way ? is it because u can`t express yourself using such words ? get a life man

  41. Anwar says:

    Q8i browser, u must be related to toni

  42. 1337q8 says:

    lol typical…

  43. Patrick says:

  46. Nasser says:

  47. Zohan says:

  48. Patrick says:

  49. Q8 browser says:

    lol anwar how old r u ?

  50. Anwar says:

    I am 14 :) and by the way Sfsa78 your the typical type of pufta who I was referring to when I said ‘try too hard with their english’. U just tried so hard to impress me, u ended writing th worder grammar as grammer LOL. Such a sad little soul arent u

  51. Anwar says:

    Patrick u find them so funny i will give u one more just to please u….. how about Patrick = Patprick

  52. Patrick says:

    “u ended writing th worder grammar as grammer”

    worder? lol.

    This is getting too silly. Anwar, did you ever think that some of the readers here aren’t actually trying “too hard” to speak proper english? That they were educated in either an American or an English school in either Kuwait or another country? That they actually know how to speak and write proper english? Maybe you should be doing with regular 14 year olds do these days, play videogames and make fun of each other.

  53. Q8 browser says:

    anwar there are blogs for teenagers plz check them out
    we are not interested in kids comments over here ..

  54. Diana (haha) says:

    Um, doesn’t Mark usually approve of the comments before they’re published? Why is he allowing this jealous troll to fuck up the comments page? What a sad, pathetic loser. Mark, please ban this pathetic excuse for a human being from this site. Ugh. I honestly am infuriated, or I should say, mad. I’m trying way to hard.

  55. Diana (haha) says:

    *too

  56. Sfsa78 says:

    Anwar..
    English is my first language because i’m half english and only moved here 6 years ago. So, you criticising my english is like a pakistani criticising a kuwaiti’s arabic. Furthermore, it is nobody’s fault but your own if you think normal english is posh or that it is impressive.
    Since you’re 14 years old, i wil refrain from stooping to your level of debate.
    A word of advise; the word “pofta”(or any other vulgarity for that matter), will not win you any arguements.

  57. SmoKeY says:

    Mark you need to come see this . . . you need to come right now!!!

    someone has obviously just hit puberty and is soaked with testosterone!!!!

    chill dudes okaaaaaaaaaaaay!!

  58. Anwar says:

    Sfsa78 so if english is ur first language, why ru comparing it to a paki speaking kuwaity. Your supposed to be fluent in English.

    Guys ive enjoyed your comments so much, im inviting you all out for dinner tommorow night. (dont worry i dont want to romp you all afterwards) its just out of generosity

  59. Sfsa78 says:

  60. Anwar says:
