If anyone is interested in taking a summer trip to Myrtle Beach from 7/29-8/5, I am renting out my timeshare with Marriott's OceanWatch Villas at Grande Dunes. This resort is right on the beach and offers many fun activities for the whole family! The two-bed, two-bath condo has a fully furnished kitchen and can fit up to 8 people. I am ideally looking for someone to rent it out for the entire week for about 3K total. Message me for more information!

This merger blows. SPG had a legit no blackout policy but Marriott says they do no blackout but they have inventory control which is essentially the same shit. Such deceptive tactic. 😡😡

Let's see if we can get a general collection of tips for travel hacking together. All the basic ones:

- TSA Precheck / Global Entry
- Chase Sapphire / Marriott Bonvoy / Amex Platinum
- keeping all your stuff in a carry-on makes it easy to avoid baggage claim
- Loungebuddy / Priority Pass for airport lounges

What else am I missing? What are the basic things everyone should be doing to save time / get a more enjoyable experience while traveling?
