Getting flown out for an interview next Friday, want to stay the weekend. Tried just booking it and they said I need recruiter approval. Should I just miss my departure flight? How can I stay cheaply?

It's difficult to tell if it's going to cost them more since I don't have access to their booking site/flight rates.

Ask the recruiter.. I think they generally are flexible as long as it doesn't cost them more

Book southwest and change your flight without a fee

I don't really have a say in what airline they book me on... Just emailed recruiter he said it's fine as long as the cost is similar. Again, tough to tell haha

Update: AMEX figured it out and I ended up saving them money by flying out later

Do you pay your credit cards in full every month?

I ask because I’ve let my credit spending get a bit lax since moving and adopting a puppy recently, so I haven’t been paying them off in full every month like I used to (though still well above the minimum payment, and keeping utilization at 30% or under). It got me thinking about how many people adhere to this advice.

I'll be in premium economy in an aisle seat. I usually take melatonin before bed and sleep on my side. Does anyone have suggestions for an OTC sleeping pill or pillow that actually works, or other advice for sleeping on a plane?

I left my old job the end of January (due to compensation) and hate my new job. I don’t sleep and am constantly stressed.

They told me there would be when I left…what is the best way to go about this?
