Has anyone flown into PHL with Aer Lingus?

6 Upvotes

My mum is coming to visit for Halloween, flying from the UK via Dublin with Aer Lingus. One of the selling points is that you clear immigration/customs in Dublin.

Everything Google is saying they fly to Terminal A West and have to clear customs again. Has anyone flown this route and do you know where we would expect to pick her up?

Thanks all for the quick replies! No 2nd immigration is a relief

Motorcycle meetup? Biker bars?

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone! A friend of mine has always wanted to experience riding on the back of a motorcycle, even if it’s just for 15–20 minutes.
I was wondering if there are any biker bars, motorcycle meetups, or events in or around Philly where we could meet some experienced riders who might be willing to take her for a short ride as a passenger.
Any recommendations on where to look? Thanks!

Probably a bit of a stretch, but anybody from Philly who went or still in evergreen state college at Olympia, Washington? If so, what was it like for you in detail? I'm planning on going after my two years at community college of Philadelphia, so I'm wondering if any other natives from here went there or did online classes there. Thanks!

Two Rittenhouse 1BRs, same rent, a block apart: renovated with mini-splits, or bigger and older with a private deck?

0 Upvotes

Moving to Philly Nov 1 for a one-year lease. I’ll commute to Media from Suburban three days a week and work from home two days. I’m choosing between these two 1BRs, both between 15th and 16th:

A: 1521 Spruce #301

https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/1521-Spruce-St-APT-301-Philadelphia-PA-19102/463415899_zpid/

B: 1536 Pine #2R

https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/1536-Pine-St-2R-Philadelphia-PA-19102/2056245488_zpid/

Both have $1,795 base rent, but Spruce includes water and Pine charges another $50/month. So it’s $1,795 versus $1,845 before electricity, internet and insurance.

A — Spruce

- Listed at approximately 700 sq ft; third-floor walk-up.

- Mini-split AC in the living room and bedroom.

- Newly renovated

- Smaller living room with built-in shelving/bench beneath the living-room windows.

- Local landlord whose office is next door.

- Smaller living room than Pine

B — Pine

- Listed at approximately 750 sq ft; second-floor rear unit.

- Larger-looking living room with tall ceilings, an alcove and a chandelier.

- Private deck accessed through the bedroom.

- Paneled doors, old wood floors and cast-iron radiators.

- Older kitchen/bath finishes, a blue tub and ceiling tiles in the bedroom.

- Window AC in the living room and a through-wall unit in the bedroom.

- Private owner who lives out of state; a storefront occupies the ground floor.

Looking at the photos and layouts, which would you prefer and why

Moving to Philly Qs

0 Upvotes

Hii all!!

I’m originally from South Jersey and am thinking about moving back up north from Austin. Philly is definitely on my radar, but I’m a little nervous about the move and would love to get a better feel for the city!!

One thing I really love about Austin is the sense of community, especially around health and wellness. There are always meetups, dance events, movement classes, and people looking to connect in ways that don’t necessarily revolve around drinking. I’m curious what the social scene is like in Philly, especially for people in their late 20s!

I feel like a lot of my memories of going into Philly growing up involved drinking and going out to bars, and that’s just not really my scene anymore. I’d love to hear about how people meet friends, find community, and spend their time outside of work, especially if you’re into wellness, dance, movement, or just finding fun ways to connect with people!

Would love to hear your experiences, recommendations, or just general thoughts on what it’s like living in Philly!!

Thanks in advance!! 🫶
