A Hawaiian Airlines flight had to be diverted when tragedy struck earlier in the week.
The plane was heading from Honolulu to New York City when “a flight attendant died of an apparent heart attack“, according to Fox News. Continue reading Tragic: Flight Attendant Dies, Hawaiian Airlines Flight Diverted
During our recent winter trip, the Michael W Travels family flew to Paris thanks to $2,700 in Delta Air Lines Vouchers.
Over the course of our visit, we spent time in Paris, Nice and Monaco.
While strolling around the streets of Nice, we came across a cat cafe. Continue reading Our Almost- Visit To A Cat Cafe In Nice, France
It’s always exciting to hear about new openings of my favorite fast- casual burger chain, Shake Shack.
Earlier in the month I wrote about two more Shack airport locations opening.
Back in 2011, I went to the grand opening of the first Shack in Brooklyn. In 2013 I was at JFK Airport for the opening of Delta’s T4. During that day I had an unlikely encounter with Richard Branson and also dined at the first airport location of Shake Shack! Continue reading Shake Shack Opens First Location On Mainland China
McDonald’s isn’t a restaurant that we frequent while at home but it’s a must when we’re visiting international destinations.
We like to visit McD’s for a variety of reasons while traveling. I love trying out the local McDonald’s menu items available. The kids LOVE McD’s due to the toys. (The food is definitely secondary.) It’s also nice to eat something (relatively) familiar while away.
During our recent winter break trip, we made stops at McDonalds France a few times. From what I recall, one time was just to grab a quick dessert. Continue reading What Did We Try At McDonald’s France?

This past week I applied and got approved for my first card of the new year. Now, I’m waiting for it to arrive so I can work on hitting the minimum spend to earn the bonus.
2018 was my worst year that I can remember for getting credit card sign up bonuses. I’m hoping that 2019 turns out better than last year. I’ll probably switch strategies and start to apply for more cards for Kim rather than myself.

This past winter break, the Michael W Travels family headed to Paris. While Kim and I had each (separately) been to Paris before, this would be the first visit to France for our kids.
I typically like to try to visit new countries rather than repeat. However, it had been something like 18 years since I had last visited.
Thanks to a sweet deal from a Delta Air Lines bump (from the previous winter break), we used our vouchers to book flights to Paris. Continue reading Revisiting My Favorite Site In the City of Love, The Paris Catacombs
