Updated January 23, 2021 to include President Biden’s Executive Order about this topic. Starting January 28th, 2021 the US government, specifically the CDC (Centers for Disease Control), is requiring all persons entering the USA to show a negative Covid-19 test or prove they’ve already had the virus. Although I understand this move, I am not…
Hyatt Hotels is a fabulous hotel company. Their loyalty program is Called “World of Hyatt”. Hyatt has a much smaller footprint than Marriott, and some others, but what they lack in numbers, they make up for in quality! Like they say: Quality over Quantity ! Some of my favorite hotels are Hyatt hotels, like Grand Hyatt…
Being that I just got over Covid-19 a month before New Years, tested negative, and have antibodies (not sure how long), I decided to make good use of them (antibodies), and travel to Rio de Janeiro for New Years, for Reveillon! I, of course still use the same precautions as I did before I had…
As part of the standard line of questioning we have grown accustomed to is “have you traveled in the last 14 days?”. This makes me want to start an argument every time I hear it, as it doesn’t make any sense! On the flip side, you never get asked ” have you been to a…
Some good news for my fellow passengers and for the travel industry as a whole! Over there last week or so we have heard more and more about airlines and airports offering covid tests to circumvent the quarantine rules of certain destinations. This is a great thing, and should have been done MONTHS AGO! By…
One of the best things I have ever done, was to join the FoundersCard! I have MORE than recouped my money, many times over! There is so many discounts, memberships, free status levels, and much , much ,more! I am not promoting this for any other reason, except for the fact that I am IN…

So, as I write this I am setting in a Delta SkyClub , waiting on my next plane. This entire trip has been one big mess of confusing and frustrating mess! This rant probably would not be written if it weren’t for all the issues and frustrations that I have experienced over the last several…
Let me start off by saying the Coronavirus outbreak is absolutely horrible and I wish it was not happening. With this said, its a fact that any problems that happen like this, affect the travel industry in a negative way! It is estimated that the US airline industry alone, will loose at least 5 Billion…
Over the last few days, a video emerged of a guy on a Delta flight hitting the back of a women’s seat because she reclined into his lap. I can see both sides of this, but have to say I side with the guy. I truly feel that, although you have the “right” to…
Marriott keeps slashing away at their program, to make it where , the small guy is ran out of town! And if you ask me, is contributing to the “wealth GAP” by valuing money, corporations, and big spenders OVER LOYALTY! I have already written about how the non business traveler gets the shaft here ,…
A few questions people often ask me is what day is the best day to buy airfare, what’s the best day to fly, and how soon should I buy my ticket, amongst many others! The answers to these questions are a bit complex, and not as black and white as some would like. I have…
