📋 Editorial Policy & Corrections

TouringTony.com is written, edited, and published by Tony Baker — a consumer advocate, hospitality industry veteran, and frequent traveler with 1,000+ hotel nights across six continents and decades of experience navigating the airline and hotel loyalty landscape. Tony held top-tier status with major airlines and hotel programs for over a decade and previously worked in hotel management across the United States before founding TouringTony.com in 2015.

TouringTony.com operates with full editorial independence. No brand, advertiser, or partner has any influence over the site’s editorial positions, article topics, or conclusions. Coverage decisions are made solely based on newsworthiness, reader interest, and Tony’s own assessment of what matters to travelers.

Some articles contain affiliate links to products or services Tony personally uses and recommends. If you purchase through one of these links, TouringTony.com may earn a small commission at no cost to you. This never influences which products are recommended or how they are reviewed.

Sponsored content, when it appears, is always clearly labeled as such at the top of the article. Sponsored posts never compromise the site’s editorial positions — Tony reserves the right to decline any sponsorship that conflicts with his honest assessment of a brand or product.

For hosted hotel stays or complimentary experiences accepted for review purposes, this is disclosed in the article. Acceptance of a hosted stay does not guarantee a positive review.

Accuracy matters. If you believe something published on TouringTony.com contains a factual error, we want to know.

If you have a tip about an airline, hotel, loyalty program, or travel industry issue you think deserves coverage, Tony wants to hear it.
