@airfrance.bsky.social I have spent an hour on the phone with your customer service today with no resolution. I’ve been charged for seat upgrades with no corresponding ticket. One person told me you can buy seat upgrades with no ticket. #makeitmakesense

A repeat thought, Bluesky, & a Librarian told you this so it must be true 🤣

Audiobooks definitely count as reading (as well as listening). If you've played through an audioook, its perfectly fine to describe that as "I have read [x]"

All other forms of assistive software count as reading too 💙📚
