I haven’t flown on a plane in nearly two years and I miss it tremendously. The more I hear about the behavior of entitled maskholes, though, the more I’m glad I’m not dealing with it. We’re still in a pandemic. Masks work. Get used to it. In any case, Reddit user InterestWall posted a video…
American Airlines has taken a cue from Paris Hilton. No, they haven’t released a sex tape (at least as far as I know…). They have, however, designed First Class “pet cabins” to accommodate the pups of the rich and famous just like Paris and her tiny rat chihuahua Tinkerbell. According to AA’s outside PR firm:…
You may be firmly fixated on the post-work margaritas that are waiting for you after quitting time today, but airlines all over the world are celebrating Cinco de Mayo all day with outlandish celebrations, in-flight cocktails, and a whole lot of mariachi music. While this may just look like May 5 on the calendar, we…
BREAKING: I just got off the phone with an American Airlines spokesperson (who I won’t name for fear of losing his/her job at divulging advance information) and there is a development so delicious coming down the pipeline that you will most likely cancel all existing reservations and rebook your travel plans exclusively with American from…
Apparently today’s the day to announce big news if you’re a major airline in the United States. Delta’s doing their thing with rebranding seat products while American just shared the news that they’re investing TWO BILLION DOLLARS to make your flying experience better. They’re calling it “Going For Great,” and it’s a big campaign focused…
I’ve got a problem. After two years of qualifying for Platinum status on American, I now find myself at 24,996 miles for the year — exactly four miles away from achieving Gold status for 2015. While I was able to arrange for most of my international flights in previous years to be American Airlines or…
Just got an email from American in my inbox. First Class meal service is getting an upgrade starting on Tuesday 11/18. Here’s what they’re changing: More meals on more flights: We’ll offer you a full meal with your choice of entrée on all flights approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes or longer Warm mixed nuts…
I’ll make this quick: sign up for this new promotion from Radisson and American Airlines and you can get 7,500 miles for staying two nights between now and December 15th. You’ll need to be both a Club Carlson member and an AAdvantage member to take advantage of the promotion, but chances are you already belong…
The stock market can be a dangerous game, but with enough patience and a little know-how, it can also be very rewarding. I won’t be giving any stock tips here, but a little over a year ago I took advantage of a mileage bonus through Fidelity to get a chunk of miles just for opening…
On Saturday, I launched a poll to find out who would win the title of favorite current frequent flyer program. Framed under the question “Who’s the LeBron of Frequent Flyer Programs?,” I wanted to get a sense of where all the FF programs stood after major changes from the biggest carriers. From the beginning, the…
With the giant “LeBron James Back to Cleveland” announcement yesterday, it seems like all anyone can talk about is LeBron. As an NBA fan, I’m one of those people. He may not be the Greatest of All Time — that would be Michael Jordan — but he’s the best basketball player on the planet right…
For as much as I tout the developments of the in-flight eating experience, it’s very clear to me and pretty much everyone else in the world that the on-board food options for domestic carriers in the United States are pretty substandard. Remember that awful microwave pizza I had in AA First Class a few months…
Have you signed up for the dining rewards programs through the various airlines? They’re a great way to earn miles without doing much of anything at all besides eating. Rewards Network operates the programs for both American and United and I was pleasantly surprised to get their emails today promising major mileage bonuses. United is…
This deal? It’s a good one — as long as you’re traveling from DFW or ORD to Hong Kong or Shanghai. Here’s how it works: to celebrate their new non-stop routes, American is offering bonus points on top of your regularly earned mileage. All you have to do is enter code ASIA2 on the promotions…
