This past week my wife and I had the opportunity to travel to Munich, Germany for Oktoberfest. I’ll have posts on that soon(ish), but I really wanted to get this brief post out soonest, since I know Lufthansa is putting a bigger focus on their Munich hub by launching A380 Flights. I will just say…
The Hurricane Season still has over a month left, but we’ve already had two rather damaging hurricanes that have caused massive damage across the Caribbean. I wrote earlier this month that we can’t forget that many of non-Contiguous United States areas were severely impacted by Hurricane Irma.A good friend of mine, Geoff has strong ties to…
I remember the moment you accepted my status challenge. I had been a long time United 1K, but the Premier Qualifying Dollar (PQD) introduction was too much for me, coupled with fewer upgrades, so I bailed. All of my friends said you would be so much better, even if your aircraft cabins weren’t at the…
Welcome to the weekly roundup – a collection of interesting posts over the last few days (or weeks in this case) Travel Warning – this is a German blog, but google translate works decently. It looks like there’s a new Star Wars themed ANA Kids lounge. Great addition to the ANA Star Wars Liveries! Credit…
A trend that I and I think many others noticed about the reporting of Hurricane Irma, was a borderline myopic focus on the Continental United States. The news and weather reporting channels didn’t really spend much time reporting on the dire impacts of Irma before or after the storm hit, when compared with the virtual…
You’ve probably noticed by now that my posting rate has gone down rather significantly over the past few weeks. Its been a rather crazy few weeks for me, and unfortunately regular blog posts have been impacted. That said, there’s just so much happening that I had to at least attempt to get something out. So…
If you poll frequent travelers, I think you’ll get a mixed response on whether folks use or don’t use packing cubes. Until recently, I hadn’t even tried using a packing cube, but during the last Amazon Prime Day, there was a pretty decent deal, so I grabbed a 4-pack of two different sizes.Packing cubes come…

I’m not sure how widely known last week’s Southwest Reservation System Issue was, but I did happen to see random mentions about it on twitter. Thinking back to the flight my wife and I took on Sunday where folks were saving seats rows away with their bags, I do recall the A List section of the boarding…
Other than credit card sign-on bonuses, I am convinced that shopping portals and things like the Mileage Plus X app are the opportunities to earn tons of miles with fairly little effort. United ran a similar promotion for Father’s day, this time its Back to School on Mileage Plus X app. Getting Back to School…
