Manufactured Spending and Deals

Nonsequitars

  • Point Me to the Plane reports that Delta operated 777-200LR as a charter from Brisbane, Australia to Joint-Base Andrews (which before was known as Andrews Air Force Base, aka the home of Air Force One) for reporters traveling with the President.
  • For something completely different, BBC had a nice article on the Golden Age of Air Stewardesses.
  • Flight Global reports that Azul announced their cabin product for International Flights!

Frequent Flier Program Devaluations a plenty!

One of, if not the only reason we pursue miles and points is for out-sized redemption opportunities.

  • One Mile at a Time reviews United’s latest devaluation. Baggage fees, elite-companions, Copa starting their own program – things do not look good for the United Elite who will be expected to spend even more money to maintain status next year.
  • Wandering Aramean confirms that Delta really is killing award stopovers.
  • Are We There Yet nails JetBlue’s latest announcements / devaluation (using that word is ironic considering shares jumped 4%)
