Anyone planning any trips to start the year?

In your mass farewell email, do you mention where you’re going?

1st time going to Spain in May. Thoughts on the itinerary? Barcelona 4 days -> Seville 3 days -> Cordoba 1 days -> Grenada 2 days -> Madrid 3 days

Might have to leave the “all things points” bowl soon if these creepy ant/roach/bug posts continue. Making me so paranoid to stay in a hotel now smh

I’ve got ~2300 points from a Southwest card I’m getting rid of before the annual fee posts. Is there anything I can do with these? Happy to just ignore them, but thought I’d ask in case someone knew more than I.

Why won’t AA let me book business class flights with points if they’re available to buy cash? (Qatar flight on AA site)

What is a good credit card to get for travel?

Looking to book one night at a Marriott property in chicago to celebrate anniversary with my wife - mostly deciding between the Gwen and the Ritz. Which would you choose? (Assume price doesn’t matter)

American airlines is so dumb. Was trying to purchase MCE seats for a long-haul. You can’t
purchase it online after check-in. And they can’t uncheck you over the phone. Good thing I fly Delta!

With another Boeing 737 crashing, would it be wise to invest in Boeing Puts?

My international flight is delayed due to closure of Pakistan airspace. Going to miss my connecting flight (on a different carrier) . Can I apply for trip cancellation insurance with chase for this ?

If you were travelling to NYC for ONE day to have one amazing dinner at a restaurant, where would you go? No budget

🚨 Arriving home to Ohare and was approached by a guy offering taxi rides and handing out business cards in terminal 3 baggage claim. DO NOT ACCEPT RIDES FROM PEOPLE OFFERING THEM!!! Whether they ‘can do cash or card,’ don’t buy it - they’ve got you once you’re in the car. Told airport emergency hotline and they are investigating.

Stay safe and don’t get got!!

Going to Vegas for the new year. Would like to visit the Grand canyon. What's the best way to get there? Tour group? helicopter tour? Or just rent a car and do self guided tour?

I just took an international trip via KLM and my ticket was bought through Delta. I’m a Delta Diamond Medallion. There were zero (actually negative) perks with flying with partner airline. More below

Does anyone have experience travelling in or out of Heathrow over the last month? Got a trip booked and wondering what the border restrictions are like/ what documentation is needed for showing reason for travel (if any)

Has anyone been offered a status buy-up for 2021. ~$1700 short of United 1k this year and think my travel will increase a good bit starting next year. Think it could make sense, especially given the 2021 thresholds

Chase Sapphire Reserve is not able to book a ticket for me on Air India because the flight is not showing up on their system. The flights shows up everywhere else including on Expedia, which powers Chase’s portal. Anyone had similar experience?

So I jump ship in Hong Kong and make my way over to Tibet...

Covid has been hard. March 2029- December 2020 I drank a lot to cope without realizing it. January- March I didn't realize I was depressed. March I came to terms with increase and ongoing suicidal ideation and needed help.

I went into a intensive outpatient program (IOP) which has been super helpful.

During the beginning of covid I drank every day and in a great deal. January it was a "dry" month which was hard the first week but overall great.

March 2021 realized I'm clinically depressed.
