Air Canada CEO Is Out For Recording Crash Video In English — It Makes Canada Look Ridiculous, But The Logic Is Real

JetBlue Leads Another Round Of Bag Fee Hikes — Why Airlines Don’t Just Raise Fares

Grand Hyatt Vail レビュー
サマリー 北米にあるSki-in/ski-out Hyattホテルで唯一カテゴリ―7のホテル。食事が美味しく、リフトはホテルから徒歩20歩ぐらいの素晴らしいホテル。   予約 坊ちゃんの春休み中の3月に行きました。カテゴリ―7ですが、この時期はピーク。なので1泊35,000ポイント。合計で4泊しました。 さらにSuite upgradeを使ってGrand Suite | King Bedを確保しました。 キャッシュだと普通の部屋が1泊500-700ドルほどでスイートが700-900ドルぐらいのようです。グローバリストで特にSuite upgrade使えるなら300ドル前後なら支払う価値もあるんじゃないかと思います。 他の北米Ski-in/ski-outのHyattホテルの値段はもっと高額です。なぜかここは若干低く設定されている。 アクセス 最寄空港はEGEで車で30分ほど。DENだと2時間かかります。 雪が降っていない時はDENから車でも問題ないですが、雪が降っていると厄介。DENからシャトルバスに乗れば運転しなくてもいいですが、片道120ドルほどかかります。家族だと結構な金額になるのが難点。   チェックイン とてもフレンドリーなスタッフがチェックインしてくれましたが、肝心のグローバリスト特典の詳細説明などはありませんでした。4時がチェックインの時間ですが、4時過ぎてもまだ部屋が用意できていませんでした。 チェックイン時にシャンパンが飲めるトークンをもらいました。 こちらがチェックインでもらったパンフレット↓ 毎日4-5 pmに日替わりでおやつと飲み物が提供されます。スキーし終わった後におやつが食べれるので非常に便利で、宿泊客に無料で提供している割には結構どれも美味しいので良かったです。 初日はクッキーとホットココア 2日目はチュロスとアップルサイダー 3日目はスモアとホットココア 4日目はがっつりスキー滑ったので間に合いませんでした   部屋 部屋番号は576 スキーレンタル＆リフトと同じ建物で非常に便利でした。 そして部屋の窓から太陽の日差しがよく入るので明るかったです。 ソファーはソファーベッドになります バスタブが今まで泊まってきたスイートにあった物に比べると深さがすごい。日本の浴槽みたいです 部屋の動画がこちら   ジム フロントが2階という設定なので、ジムは1階です。 スパはこんな感じ↓スキーで忙しかったので中に入りませんでした。   プール 外に大き目のが1つ。温水プールで冬でも入れる温度です その脇にジャグジー ちょっと離れた場所にさらにジャグジーがあります。こっちの方が静かで景色も良さそうです。   ホテル内アメニティ 洗濯機＆乾燥機 1階のジムの奥に無料で使える洗濯機＆乾燥機があります。ひっそりとあるので、この存在を知っている人が少ないのか利用している人が少なかったです。しかも洗剤は用意されています...
