Did you know that AARP, the American Association of Retired People, has 37 million members? Are you aware that AARP is one of the most powerful lobbying groups in the world? Did you know that AARP successfully created a law that requires at least one Denny’s in every American town? Okay, so that last one…
Have we reached the (non-)tipping point? A restaurant in Pittsburgh seems to think so. Bar Marco recently announced that starting in April, they won’t be accepting any gratuities. Instead, their employees will all get a salary of $35,000 that comes with full health benefits and 500 shares in the restaurant to become part owners. The…
Guys. My Mom called the other day to tell me that she liked my story on whether or not you can diet while you travel. That’s just about the highest praise I can imagine. While some moms blindly praise their kids for everything (“You tried your best, sweetheart! Here’s a trophy!”), mine only proffers approval…
I’m sorry. I know I said I wasn’t going to just repost things I found elsewhere, but come on. A fireworks factory is exploding. You have to see that, right? In an effort to live up to my resolution to provide some insightful Fly&Dine analysis on stories like this, let me just say that…
On Saturday, I told you about my plan to eat well in the New Year and so far it’s going extremely well. Lots of vegetables, a good amount of protein, and no added sugar or white flour. I’ve been eating delicious meals of Chinese chicken salads, roasted vegetables, vegetarian chili, and so much more. It…
Bay Area Gamblers rejoice! Today, JetBlue launched service from SFO to LAS and that means two flights daily will now head to Vegas non-stop for all the blackjack, showgirls, and Alaskan snow crab legs you can handle. All of the standard JetBlue amenities (free snacks, drinks, and wi-fi) apply and the aircraft will be the…
Yesterday, I told you about my plan to get healthier in 2015. Health isn’t just about weight loss, though. January is the perfect time to commit to making every aspect of your life healthier, from food to exercise to something as simple as keeping your home cleaner and more organized. As an Amazon affiliate, I’m…
There’s almost nothing more cliche than a New Years’ diet, but year after year we embark on these fool’s errands as if they’re going to do us any good. The truth is, most people abandon diets after a week — if they even make it a week. So why do we do it? A new…
It’s amazing for me to think that Fly&Dine is now over a year old. When I started the blog, I wanted to have an outlet to talk about the wonderful advances taking place in the food and beverage side of the travel industry. A year later, Fly&Dine has grown into so much more and it’s…
I’m not much of an aviation geek, but watching this Airbus video gave me chills. Instead of the Blue Angels doing fun formations at your local air show with fighter jets, Airbus took five of their new A350s to the sky to show just how dexterous they could be. Watch massive commercial aircraft operate awesome…
No. There’s no free money waiting for you. Who do you think I am? Santa? I’m just a blogger, folks. All I have to offer is free content. I hope that’s good enough for you because in the past week I’ve been posting some good stuff. Scratch that. It isn’t good. It’s GREAT. That’s why…
As the first year of Fly&Dine draws to a close, I’ll be looking back on the stories that turned Fly&Dine from a tiny blog into a growing monolith (and major hub of hyperbole). With only two weeks left in 2014, let’s take a look at another popular story on Fly&Dine that caused quite the uproar…
