Next weekend we’ll be heading off on one of our final trips of 2016. This will be a relatively short visit to a new state for us. I felt this was a good opportunity to use some of my Southwest points before my Companion Pass expires.

With 2016 in its final months, it looks like this will be the lowest amount of miles and points that i’ve earned from credit card bonuses in years. And sadly, I can’t see it getting much better in the future thanks to strict new approval rules with Chase…

How has your week gone when it comes to miles, points and travel? Continue reading 500 FREE Virgin America Points, Lufthansa- United Collision, 500 Bonus AA Miles, Kate Middleton Flies Coach, Don’t Call Flight Attendants Sexy, Win A Trip to Peru & More- The Rehash!

The rest of this year’s travel plans are taking shape. It looks like we’ll be flying for a couple of more trips before the new year!

I used my City National Points for one trip and got to use some of my Southwest points for the other. I was approved for another Alaska Airlines credit card but this is looking like it will be the lowest miles & points I’ve earned from credit cards in quite some time.

Columbus Day is coming up on Monday, October 10. As many of you probably know, the day celebrates Christopher Columbus discovering the Americas on October 12, 1492.

The holiday has become controversial and some cities now call it Indigenous People’s Day.

My Southwest Companion Pass expires at the end of this year so I’m trying to figure out a way (time is an issue) to use up most of my points. I’m currently considering a couple of trips which would probably use up a good amount of them.

Now that I’m done with the minimum spend on my newest credit card, I’m trying to decide on what to apply for next. Since I was denied for the Chase Sapphire Reserve card, I could still try getting approved at a branch but that sounds like a pain.

Mom of Unaccompanied Minor on Wrong Flight Suing JetBlue

JetBlue

A few weeks back I wrote about a couple of unaccompanied minors placed on the wrong JetBlue flights. Although the boys made it to their intended destinations on the same day, this was still a scary and confusing situation.

The airline tried to make right by the family and offered one of them a $10,000 gift which was not accepted.

Now the mom is suing JetBlue for negligence, according to Gothamist. Continue reading Mom of Unaccompanied Minor on Wrong Flight Suing JetBlue

Warned Not to Climb, 3 Tourists Stuck on Uluru, Need 11 Hour Rescue

uluruDuring our honeymoon, Kim and I headed to Australia where we got to see some amazing sights around the country. One of our favorites was our stop in the Australian Outback.

We loved visiting the famous rock formations, the Olgas and Uluru (Ayer’s Rock).

A big debate I had was whether or not to climb Uluru. Kim wasn’t for it, so reluctantly I agreed to only go a short way up to get a closer look. Continue reading Warned Not to Climb, 3 Tourists Stuck on Uluru, Need 11 Hour Rescue

Since we’re now into fall, it’s time to seriously start considering some winter travel options.

I’m thinking about a quick domestic trip in a few weeks from now since I still have some Southwest Rapid Rewards points to burn. As for winter break, that is a tough one. My work schedule only allows for travel during the peak holiday dates so what do I do? I’m hoping some sort of deal comes up. I also need to look into some options with miles… Continue reading Brad Pitt Opening Lux Resort, Video: Casey Neistat’s $21K 1st Class Seat, North Korea Internet, Shortest International Flight, Win 100K AA Miles, JetBlue Schedule Extended & More- The Rehash!
