CheapOair Screws Up Our Flight Booking, Makes Good
During our month-long trip around South Asia we visited five countries. The last stop on our trip was to India where we visited a bunch of different areas.
We booked a flight with AirAsia (through CheapOair) to get us from Delhi to Goa.
For those who don’t know, traffic in Delhi is beyond awful. Our flight was at 7:55 pm and we hoped to arrive at the airport two hours early. However, the ride to the airport took a lot longer than expected due to that fun Delhi traffic. Continue reading CheapOair Screws Up Our Flight Booking, Makes Good

Hotels.com Making Changes To Loyalty Program
When we’re not booking hotels directly through the property’s site, I try to use Hotels.com for my bookings due to their loyalty program.
With their loyalty program, “after collecting 10 nights, you’ll get 1 reward night to redeem at any eligible property.” The reward night is worth the average value of the 10 nights you had booked. Continue reading Hotels.com Making Changes To Loyalty Program

The Best Secret Button I’ve Found On Airplane Seats
In December 2017 I wrote a post about the secret button on airplane seats.

I remember coming home from Thailand (about 10 years ago) with an extra bag filled to the brim. Now it seems like many countries sell the same kind of this. Most of the time, if I am buying something it is for my boys.
