Time is money, brah

I should have listened to your unanimous advice..... I had about an hour of work to do, so I thought, I might as well do that while waiting for the flight. But whereas the earlier one left - my flight added another hour of delay.

Always leave early

Get home!

I gave up a bulkhead window economy plus for a regular middle seat... But I am now in an uber on my way home, 2 hours earlier. no ragrets

Which CC is better for sign-up bonus - Citi Premier 80K points or Chase Aer Lingus/Iberia 100K Avios points?

I churn somewhat regularly and am under 5/24 by 1. I think Citi's points are more valuable but maybe I should knock out another Chase card before I'm at 5/24 again, even though Avios isn't as versatile?
