This is over two-years old. Is it still valid? It's from "Access Lake Chapala."

I'm particularly wondering what airline tickets the writer is talking about.

Anyone know.

Thanks


"The INAPAM card is honored Nationally in over 20,000 retail and service outlets. This includes cinemas, restaurants, (VIPS, Sanborns, etc.) drugstores, inter-city buses, airplane tickets, physicians, opticians, laboratories, medical equipment outlets, museums, archaeological sites, parks, etc. It is a good idea to show both your DIF card and your INAPAM card if you think they may be honored. No harm in trying."

You can't be serious? The archives on this board go back to April 2010, TALOSIAN, why don't you do the research and let us know for a change!

Ahhh Jim, you are such a spoil sport.

I know.......Juan....my bad BTW home you make it to the "BORED" meeting this time.

I found what was valid last month may not be valid today. I was wondering about updates.

I would love to help people but I have only two areas of real expertise, one is more than covered by Spencer (California and U.S. federal law and procedure) , and the other is hands-on Handyman work (I work for food).

But I see your point.

It is easy to check on the validity of information - just use google.

1) use google to search on Inapam

A link to the inapam site is returned by google

2) click english (upper right)

a screen displays in english. Off to the right is a navigational table which includes "benefits Inapam Card"

3 click benefits..........

a screen displays with different categories. As your question was about airline, click transport

3) click transport

A pdf file displays airline and other transportation discounts -

so yeah - you had a choice - try to find the answer yourself, or - try to find someone to do it for you:) I do understand that not everyone is comfortable searching and not everyone uses google -- but I use google because it is the best search engine - and it is really easy to find things - in this case - the answer was easily found searching on one word - inapam.

Mad Max.

A lot of people can do or find out things themselves, but I don't see anything wrong with asking for the help of someone who may have the knowledge/experience right at their fingertips.

A perfect example is someone having an attorney/facilitator get them their resident's visa. It isn't that difficult; one can look it up through Google nd save literally thousands of peson, but they choose to have someone else do it for them.

I don't think there is one question, other than a personal one, asked on any board that the asker couldn't get the answer to on his/her own.

IMO of course.

actually - I see a lot of wrong answers on the webboards - and usually the reader has no way of knowing if the answer is right on or way off........... and there are a lot of way off's.............. so the source, when available, would be my preference - which is of course a personal preference..............:)

Talosian:

A successful forum is comprised of people that not only take by asking questions all the time but also give by providing information not only when it is asked for but also voluntarily because they feel that they might be helping others. In simpler terms, it is about being a taker, giver or both!

Personally, I would not be happy with myself always being a taker and relying on others to provide me with answers!

"Always" is a relative; without a frame of time or reference, it means nothing.

All in their own time; all in their own way.

But Neil, seriously you are often full of very interesting information, and I'm glad that you share it with us.

Sadly there are some who are full of something else and share it with us whether we are interested or not :)

Talosian:

OK - I stand corrected. As I remember it, you did give when you made the announcement on misrepresented weights of repackaged food at a certain highly respected business establishment! Meanwhile, some of us may not have enough time left on this planet waiting for your next contribution?

Don't forget the best place to buy Jello Neil!!!

Nope I wrote that one off since the OP was comparing US Jello with Mexico Jello. I guess reading the labels were too much of a challenge?

And if you recall Neil, when I did bring up the issue of short-weights, I was called every name in the book. I was cheap bastard complaining about a few pesos; no one cared about the principle of cheating the customers. So at that point, I stopped "contributing" in that area.

I see intentional scams and crap going on all the time, and I would post it but don't want a repeat of the past.

When I try to help in a larger way than directions to someplace or the best deal on such-and-such, I don't ask for accolades; but an occasional "thanks" would be nice.

So maybe I'll post more with "helpful" stuff and see the responses.

At this time, I think continuing this thread is beating a dying horse.

Talosian, according to you, you are not the self-centered, whining taker you are perceived to be but a poor victim. Since no one posting on this board can ever be assured they will be greeted with agreement on and accolades for their contributions, using your reasoning, no one would ever post anything ever.

Put whatever spin on the facts you want Lady Otter Latte.

And FYI, there are many people who post very little or not at all for the simple reason they do not want or need the negative/flames they get.

I stop here. I have wasted much too much time on this thread which should have died many posts ago.

Lesson learned by me.

"Lesson learned by me."
Sigh. We can only hope.

Just my two pesos here..... the forum works well for getting and giving info... but it also is a way to connect with people. The old walk a mile in another's moccasins.....

As far as questions...yes.. most can be answered by contacting "Uncle Google"...my favorite uncle..but sometimes getting personal opinions helps sort info out.

Hope to Jim. Gotta run up to the states tomorrow, but hopefully back Sun. If all goes as planned, I will be there.
Looking forward to it. Sorry I missed the last one at your house as it sounded like I missed a real good time.

In this case, the poster wasn't asking for a personal opinion - but wanted to know the airlines that accepted Inapam. My bad for trying to help.

You guys are picking on people again and I don't care about your reasons. You
may be having fun but you scare people away. Can you find something else
to do?

Let's don't answer anymore.

No shit, Sherlock.....
