I book more flights with Alaska Airlines than any other program for two reasons: 1) You can earn elite miles on award flights and 2) the award chart is fantastic.  It’s definitely a hit to see they’re going to raise the partner booking fee, which is nonrefundable btw, from $12.50...

Marriott Bonvoy have brought back their annual summer bonus for stays in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. The key difference for 2026 is that it now includes all room types instead of only premium rooms as seen in previous years. The trade off? Lower bonus points, the 2026 offer...

Many Chase credit cards now come with monthly Instacart coupons, good for either $10 or $20 off an order. For a long time, I ignored those coupons. There aren’t any delivery stores in my vicinity, and placing multiple pickup orders seemed tedious. I long labeled it as not worth the...

Passengers on a Frontier Airlines flight from San Juan, Puerto Rico, to Chicago O’Hare fought to restrain a 51-year-old man after he allegedly attempted to open an emergency door as the plane flew at 32,000 feet above the Atlantic Ocean, according to an arrest report. Juan Gabriel Reyes of Pahokee,...

“Drive safely. Do you have time now?” is one of the latest text messages which I received recently on my mobile telephone from a number which is unknown to me. Watch out for this text message scam if you receive a similar message. The text messages are a form of a...

Best Western has opened registration for a new promotion that’s awarding 2,500 bonus points per night, with a limit of 10,000 bonus points. This is only valid for stays from July 1-7, but if you’re going to be going away to celebrate the 250th birthday of the US, this could...

Here’s a proposal that certainly counters the general trend we see in Europe when it comes to how regulators view the airline industry…

In 2024, we saw the opening of a stunning new terminal at Portland International Airport (PDX). I haven’t been yet, but it truly looks like the most impressive terminal in the country. The one thing missing at the time was a new Alaska Lounge, to add capacity, and reflect the...

Most travelers have strong opinions about airlines, hotels, vacation rentals and rideshare companies. But which travel brands have the worst reputations overall? A newly released survey asked Americans exactly that—and…

An American Airlines regional jet from Nashville to Washington National was met by hazmat crews after a so-called service dog made such a mess in the cabin that passengers became sick. Genuine service animals can have accidents, but this is exactly why travelers are fed up with fake service-animal paperwork:...

Many readers will earn Dell Rewards by virtue of purchases made to utilize the Dell credits on the Business Platinum Card® from American Express—up to $150 back per calendar year, as well as $1,000 back on $5,000 of purchases in a calendar year. In the past, Dell Rewards expired on...

Here’s a negative change, though I can’t say I’m surprised, given the general industry trend that we’ve seen.

Milan may open its close-in Linate airport to long-haul flights for the first time — but only if every seat is business class. The draft carveout would let premium passengers skip faraway Malpensa for all-business narrowbody flights, with New York the obvious first target, while economy passengers remain shut out...

Wyndham Rewards have launched their summer systemwide global bonus points offer where members can earn up to 15,000 bonus points on multiple night stays. If you earn the maximum 15,000 points you can redeem those for up to two free nights within the Wyndham Rewards program. The up to 15,000...

The best points rewards programs, in our opinion, are those that allow points to be transferred to many different airline and hotel loyalty programs. In this way, it’s often possible to get outsized value from your points. For example, suppose you want to fly lie-flat business class to Europe. Prices...
