So I sent my brother a link to the most recent Ritz Carlton film (which I blogged about a few days ago), and he ended up watching all three. We agreed overall on the meaning of the first and third video, but he started telling me his view of the second video (”Last Night”), and [...]

Now that it’s almost July 1 and the industry has changed a bit, I thought it was time for a status match post.

I was getting a bit tired of being home for nearly a week (yes, I’m kidding), so I figured it was time to look for a mileage run to get an early start on the second half of the year. As it turns out, I managed to find a great fare with only three day [...]

Finally something good! Much like UA’s “Elite Choice Rewards” or AA’s new bonus program, you actually get something for flying over 75,000! The major difference is that there’s nothing for those doing less than top tier status travel like AA and UA, but it’s still great. Here’s what you get:
Earn 100,000 MQMs—enjoy 15,000 bonus miles.
Earn 125,000 MQMs—enjoy [...]

I’ve been following the Ritz Carlton three-part film series, and just noticed that the last one, “Heads or Tails,” has been released. This one’s pretty easy to understand and good, in my opinion. For those that haven’t seen the first two videos, I blogged about the first one here and the second one here.

I’ve posted in the past about how to use online award tools to your advantage to find a desirable award.
