Do you think travel influencers actually give good advice? I’ve followed plenty of their recommendations—some led me to amazing spots I never would’ve found, but others felt so out of touch. One “budget” itinerary recommended a $300/night eco-lodge and a private driver for every day… hard pass. I love the inspo, but sometimes it feels more like a photoshoot than real travel. Do you follow influencer advice when planning a trip, or take it all with a grain of salt? Are there any who actually keep it real and practical?

Anyone know the rules for delta basic economy tickets when the flight arrival has been delayed by 8 hours? I know the ticket is non refunable under usual terms but in this case would they issue a refund?

Will Amex restricting guess access for Centurion Lounge actually make any difference?

I can see short term changes but the way Amex has been aggressively marketing Platinum card, we just will have overcrowding of primary card holders 🤷🏻‍♂️
