Last week brought some major news, the use of personal electronic devices will be allowed below 10,000 feet or as the Federal Aviation Administration says “during all phases of flight”.
Find out more about the big news in this USA Today article. Continue reading Silly Delta Video About Using Electronics Below 10,000 Feet
While doing some reading online I came across an amazing video from National Geographic that I wanted to share.
In the video, an animal that most wouldn’t expect to be a good swimmer- a jaguar swims through the water and sneaks up on a caiman and takes it down in less than 5 seconds.

Last week I wrote about my Quick Trip to Philly. I rode Megabus for the first time in a couple of years. (Check out what I did during the trip: Day 1 & Day 2.)
While on the bus to Philadelphia, my brother and I decided to sit on the upper level of the double-decker bus. We sat right by the stairs so we could get off quickly when we arrived at our destination. However, we started to debate if we chose a good place to sit soon after the bus started moving.
Just as we were getting comfortable, loud music started playing on the bus. I turned around and saw a guy listening to (blasting) music.The funny thing was that he was using headphones!
We were sitting 4-5 rows in front of him but we could still hear his music loud and clear.
I can only imagine how this guy will do on future hearing tests!
At first the loud music was irritating, annoying and a nuisance. But then we started feeling the music. We figured why not embrace what you can not control. We went back to relaxing but then my brother woke up dancing to the beats!
Check out the video below:

This video was taken with an iPhone.
Priority Club sent out an e-mail “extending a world of thanks” to their members.
According to Priority Club:
There are a million ways to say “thank you”. Priority Club Rewards extends them all to our members.
The video was actually really well done. It’s a cartoon of places all over the world with people saying thank you in their native language. It has a catchy tune to go along with it and kept my attention for the full minute +.
Here is the video:
I’d be more thankful to Priority Club if they would come out with better PointBreaks offerings in the future.
PointBreaks award bookings are available for 5,000 points per night at select locations for limited times. If you can find a room in a location you are interested in visiting, it can be a real bargain.
On that note, I’d like to thank all of my readers for their support.
Happy travels for the upcoming year!
I wrote about the Priority Club- Earn 1,000 Points for 90-Second Video offer a few days ago.
I was worried that these codes would stop working but as of yesterday, they are still working just fine. I have some codes left with more on the way!
(IHG had sent me a message through Twitter saying how these codes were for hotel guests and my codes had been deactivated)
After watching the video, I received an 80,000 points bonus offer to sign up for the
Chase Priority Club Visa Card. I signed up for the card last year so I didn’t take them up on the offer again as I figure I won’t receive the bonus a second time. I used a code for my wife and planned to sign her up for the card but she only received a 60,000 point offer…
This definitely surprised me. Had Chase decided to lower the offer so quickly???
I had a feeling the answer was no so I used another code with my account number (no I did not get another 1,000 point bonus) and after the video ended, what do you know- I had the 80,000 point credit card sign up offer again.
I am guessing the offers differ due to the fact that I am Priority Club Platinum, my wife is not. I took a gamble and signed her up for my 80,000 point offer. Hopefully they give her the full amount and not the 60,000 points!
