Travel:

The Australian Business Traveller reports that Singapore is moving its A380 Suites to the upper deck, essentially creating a premium upper deck. Interesting analysis to how folks arrived at this.

This whole legging thing was all a buzz on Sunday. Its amazing how uninformed individuals can pass judgement over others and companies’ values. I love social media, but Sunday proved how dangerous it truly can be, by having an individual with an MO selectively reporting information. Its a shame how facts somehow get lost.

Two contributors of The Points Guy flew following the Electronics Ban. Here is one of their experiences, flying Etihad from Abu Dhabi to Dallas. I had heard through other avenues of similar experiences. This is definitely an example of doing things poorly.

Hotels:

Hyatt’s new Miraval Brand is now visible online, but so many details still remain un-announced.

Miles, Points, and Profits:

FQF highlighted a time that you want washtubs, not teaspoons for a deal. This is an excellent deal that combines miles, points, and profits (reselling). Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to jump on it. Did you?

Shawn highlights a growing trend that we’ve been talking a lot about in the Mile High Reselling Club, an influx of low ball “Just Launched” sellers on popular products. Its a huge risk to consumers and resellers alike.
