Tips, Tricks, and Travel with Lucky
It seems like the hotels are equally desperate. After FFN Q4 of last year and double credits for Q1 this year, we now have a Q2 promo. While it’s nothing revolutionary, it’s quite a few bonus points if you stay at Hyatt hotels:
As a Hyatt Gold Passport member, you can earn Hyatt Gold Passport points and [...]

The airlines are starting to get desperate faster than I would have thought. Delta announced a double MQM promo for flights booked by April 30 on delta.com for travel until June 30. If Delta actually had award inventory I’d consider going for Platinum with them, but it’s just not worth it for their lousy award availability. You [...]

Well it’s official, Aloha is ceasing operations as of April 1, and this is no April Fool’s joke. To be honest I don’t know a lot about Aloha and haven’t followed this very closely, but that seems to have been fast! I know they didn’t have a lot of cash, but only a few days between declaring [...]

Just came across this awesome video today:

Those that have flown ANA know that this is almost spot on and isn’t just another unrealistic promotion. Not to advertise, but ANA really is a great airline and this video brought me back to my most recent ANA trip last summer, which was excellent. Enjoy!

I haven’t blogged about this and really love it, so figured I would mention it. For those not aware, Singapore Airlines has a really cool free music player on their website to listen to while you shop for flights (or minimize the window and just listen to otherwise). It has all different types of music, [...]

View From The Wing had a post today about Delta’s new fees, and this as we all know is only the beginning of creative revenue enhancements. We can probably all agree that the “handling charge” for partner awards that DL instituted is ridiculous, although I would argue the same about the close-in fee for awards that many US airlines charge [...]

That’s right, NW is joining the likes of DL, UA, and US in charging $25 for a second checked bag. The change will be implemented as of May 5, much like UA and US. This is hardly shocking, and to be honest I’m surprised AA hasn’t joined the gang, and lastly CO, although I’m thinking CO [...]

Ah, here’s one of those stories I hate to tell, because it makes me feel like a total moron, so enjoy!
As I’ve mentioned before I was planning on burning some AA miles for a trip, and most recently I was looking at Asia. We would fly AA for the transpacific portion and then CX (Cathay Pacific) [...]

I’m a big fan of InterContinental and their Ambassador loyalty program (specifically Royal Ambassador, which gets you a double upgrade and free minibar among other things, but that’s a moot point here). Ambassador can be bought for $150USD, which is a great deal since you get a free weekend night certificate (pays for the membership fee itself [...]
