Apologies for the newb question: we just booked a united economy flight (fare class V) to Europe for a wedding next month. What is my best option to upgrades seats?

I am in a rut...I'm thinking about ending 2022 and starting 2023 on a high note. I have been thinking about taking a last-minute trip. Where would be a great place to celebrate the new year?

Every time I try to use Hertz points abroad the site says that location doesn't take them. Can I call and use them or am I just SOL using them anywhere internationally?

Graduated with a degree in managerial science and minor in marketing and a sales certificate from a very prestigious business program in GA. Have had 4 different management positions in the past. Looking for opportunities in sales that allow me to travel constantly. Preferably base + commission but open for anything with traveling (within/out the country) anyone can help me network? Thank you!

Recommendations for an Alps ski resort between Zurich and Munich by car (Switz, Austria, Germany)? There are so many but looking for a developed village with lodging options and good lifts. Any faves?

Going solo to Denver next weekend for a couple of days. Planning to stay downtown, any hotel recommendations? Also any suggestions for things to do? I am not much into hiking but planning to do a hiking trip. I saw a bunch on hiking experiences on Airbnb, so will most likely do one of those, but would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks!

Would you rather have 5x amex MR points or 3x chase UR points for each dollar spent on flights? Why? Company let's me book flights on personal cards and trying to decide which to choose.

Bachelor party in vegas in september. Estimated 10 attendees. I’m not a groomsman so i’ve been held out of planning but im more of the well traveled attendees so trying to help. Any rec’s on suites/lodging in general for a group this size? Never traveled with such a big group and prices on the strip are insane rn

Are Uber/Lyft drivers reluctant to drive from DC (Logan) to BWI?

Hi, I'm an employee at a hotel chain who works remotely. I've been working remotely for over a year now and I love it! The company I work for is very supportive of remote workers, which is great.

But there's one thing that's been bothering me: it's hard to get feedback on my work when I'm not in the office. It would be great if there was some kind of system that let me know how my performance was being evaluated while I'm working on projects from home.

Can one pay for cabin upgrades with refund credits?

Any thoughts on aubit (FWT) or travala (AVA)?

Please help me decide…Peru vs Costa Rica in December first week? I will be traveling from NY

(1/2) I started a new job less than a month ago at a large firm with a significant pay increase. I work remotely- which is a special arrangement. They paid for my travel to their headquarters for in-person training. After interacting with my manager and some of the attorneys, I feel like I made a mistake. Manager is demeaning and rude. A bunch of the attorneys dropped not so subtle hints that people who work from home are causing all kinds of problems. I don’t know what to do.

Am I the only one who laughs when I read “no remote” in the middle of this Delta surge?

Looking for a girl travel partner to explore banglore city outskirts. Anyone interested?

Planning a trip to Bali with my bf. He’s never been on a long flight like that but we are probably planning a 2week vacation. What areas should we stay at?? we’re beach bums but I also love the forest/Hiking and a big foodie!

Favorite road trips out of LA for a 3 day weekend?

How does one use 500 Mile Upgrades on AA In the most effective manner?

Hi! This is post is for a friend who was recently laid off due to budget constraints at their company. They’re actively looking for new roles in Business Analytics, Finance or a combination of both. Any referral would be extremely appreciated.

So what's the deal with read receipt requests? Are they timing people once they have that notification? 🙄

Finally got an offer accepted on a home I love! (In DC) Spent months searching. Next thing is getting to the closing date.

Now I feel super anxious about everything going thru and getting the keys. How difficult is that process of getting to close, have heard the underwriting portion could be a headache?

It’s a myth that renting is “throwing money away.” Maintenance of a property is expensive! I’m selling my place and I’ve never felt more free. I can use that money (~$5000/month) to invest even more.

Just tested positive for covid. Was vaccinated with moderna - what gives? Have been hearing of so many breakthrough infections lately

Any product companies hiring UI/UX (or Product) Designers?

Looking for a change. I currently have around 2 YOE and would really love to give it a shot.

Hello Sharks,

My landlord requested a $100/month increase in rent. I want to push back on that increase, given the uncertainty around corona virus effects. I need to re-sign by April 1st, if I wish to extend. (1/2)

Thoughts on a m340i? I might just pull the trigger.

Do we know where Natalie from love is blind works? 👀 we know D wouldn’t approve that on compliance

Guys...how to follow up with HR without sounding desperate?

Have you been invited to join The Human Gathering?
Did you do it? Was it worth it?

I sat down to check my email before I showered this morning, had an “urgent please handle ASAP” message waiting for me, and guess what I still haven’t done today??

What does everyone think of proposition 122 on this year's ballot? Do you think it'll pass?

At what point does the value of a degree fall off? I'm in my early 30s, and have five years of experience, and work on a very theoretically interesting project. I believe I'm on track to promotion in the next year. So, I could put in a year of full time school to check the box off, but I'd be sacrificing hobbies and social life (not to mention cost). Is this FOMO or is there real opportunity here?

What was the best part of your week?

Friend asked to buy my SPG/marriott points. How would that work hypothetically? $0.027/SPG , $0.009/Marriott? (According to Points guy) & transfer to their account?

Is there a thread of company discount codes? ISO Hilton code (do not judge me my BIL is getting married at a Hilton and his fiancé is going to go postal if we don’t reserve a room now)

Did EWR pull out of priority pass? Seems like there are no more lounges listed at the airport. Kinda disappointed with the sapphire reserve lounge access…

Will have a night in Houston for work. Never been to the city before. Any tips on best SPG/Marriott property down there?

Please excuse my innocence, but the way it looks is that it seems so to be worth it to join a firm that allows personal card vs Corp amex. Thoughts?

Anyone who can share their experience flying Air China?

Where are the good point promotions? Spg (soon), Hyatt recently just ended and those were lame. Anyone know good ones going on or starting relatively soon? Interested in rental and air promotions, too.

Do you maintain a CSR/Amex Plat even as a traveling consultant (assuming you are using Corp amex green)?

Need to get precheck/global entry. Should i get a credit card that covers this and cancel in a year, or should i pay it myself?

Bathroom smells of cig smoke and they can’t transfer me to another room till tomorrow. How many points?

Diamond medallion on Delta. They lost my bags on the outbound (3 with my wife who is Plat) and inbound flights (1) on a trip to Europe. How many points should I expect? Any advice to deal with this?

My DashPass via my CSP is expiring at end of the month. Does anyone know if I can get another year of it by adding another eligible Chase card on the same account??

Just got an offer to upgrade my Amex Gold to Platinum with a 100k point bonus (spend $6k in 6 months). Is this worth it to upgrade to platinum? Would you do it

Anyone spread their status around after hitting max at one hotel chain?

For example, I've hit 100 nights at Marriott already. Should I continue to stay at Marriott for the continued count (cont.)

Is there a United status challenge?

If JetBlue moves my departure time by 3 hours can I get a credit card refund or only travel bank?

Need 6 Marriott nights to titanium (spend doesn’t matter). 1 - would any hotel manager cut you a deal? (Ie if 6 nights is 60k; let me pay 30k and get the nights and I won’t use the room?); 2 - where are cheapest Marriott hotels? I found 10k per night in burbs of Chicago? 3 - would any cheap Marriott let me run this scam remotely? (Ie call Abilene Texas, check me in without my showing up)

Any recommendations on credit cards with lounge access? Currently have the Chase Sapphire Reserve which has Priority Pass, but have been turned away from lounges not accepting PP at peak times

Heads up: Hilton is giving triple points during July if you use their credit card for booking. Good opportunity to make up to 54 points per $1. Time to stack up those points! Happy monday! :D

Have the Amex plat and CSR, any reason to keep the SPG card? Amex hasn’t given me any offers to lower my $95 fee
