Travel:
- John Walton shares that certain Je ne sais quoi of flying Emirates First Class… even on a 777!
- Pizza in Motion shares a Disney Fan who visited all 5 parks in 75 hours. That puts him traveling around the world in 75 hours, including stops at all of the “kingdoms” within the parks. I call that impressive!
Miles and Points:
- Kickfurther may be a way to increase credit card spend. There may also be some further opportunities here, but too soon to tell. Frequent Miler has a great review, so much so that I’ve already signed up myself. Now, FM has done all the hard work, so should you choose to sign up – you can use his link in the post, or if you like, here is my referral link. — note, you get $5, and for every 3rd, the referrer (FM or I) get an “Offer Key”
- More visibility on the miles and points game. Interesting to read the last sentence.
- And about the visibility on the game – Matt poses some interesting questions, with respect to the intent of folks that get published in these big articles. I do ask myself, whats in it for them?
- Dia held her 4th Family Travel for Real Life conference (#FT4RL) this past weekend. She isn’t resting on her laurels after the success – she’s already set the date for the 5th!
- Increasing credit card spend from home is a goal of mine, I call the points earned “Pajama Points,” Frequent Miler shares 9 ways to earn Pajama Points. Some have been around for a while, but there are a couple newer items to the list, that its worth a read.
#AvGeek
- Is flying a former Soviet Union era commercial jet a bucket list item? Perhaps a Tupolev or an Ilyushin IL-62? Then this tour might be for you. As an added bonus, you could visit Belarus or North Korea–and get to fly on Air Koryo!
