Whats the best airline for US domestic flights? I used to love Delta, especially when it became the only airline that still has a non-stop route to South Korea from Chicago, but I started to notice that pretty much every single domestic flights I take, Delta is either not available or 100-200 more than United. Any thoughts?

Help! What card to put my hotel stay on for most value back? Was planning to pay for hotel on Amex gold but I noticed it’s just $1:1 point. I got the Delta Amex earlier this year but that is also 1:1. Hotel stay is next week & should be $2500 before any incidentals. If I put the hotel stay on my Gap MC (promo now until 9/30) it would be 5x per dollar =$125 reward. I also have Saks MC and Nordies Visa but am unclear what their points values are outside of stores rn.

Hello I’m travelling to Madrid in Sep for a work conference and then Barcelona 2 days for leisure. I have Qantas gold status and will be travelling on QF code flights, Emirates operated. Layover at Dubai. Could you suggest best lounges at Dubai? And since will be solo female when travelling in Barcelona, would it better to stay at a hostel in female-only rooms or should I look for an Airbnb? I live in Melbourne :) Thanks much

Serious question - What’s the point of the Delta bag tags? Is it just a flex or are there serious advantages to having it on? I just got four additional Diamond tags and have usually tossed them straight into the trash - but after a recent trip where Delta / AF misplaced our bags for two whole weeks - I’m wondering if there’s any benefit to having these on. TIA

Anyone or their parents traveled through Turkish airlines recently ? Any reviews?

I am a platinum Skymiles member and want to reach Diamond. I need 50K miles! I am struggling to find a free resource that shows flights that go on sale at Delta. I could easily book a flight and hop on a round trip plane somewhere just to log miles. I have a lot of flexibility. Is there a resource you know of that I could check weekly to see what is out there? Also any tips on maximizing MQMs for the rest of the year are appreciated. I have a Delta Reserve Amex.

Give me your thoughts on the proposal of “child free flights”… customers pay a premium to ensure the flight is child free. Singapore airlines introduced this for some red eye flights to the UK awhile back…. thoughts?
