I have a very expensive flight I have to buy to New Zealand and I’ve been monitoring prices for months now with no success. I have a chase sapphire reserve it and I will buy it with that, my major concern is the ticket availability and price is much better with third-party booking sites. I feel pretty constrained with the tickets with the airline directly are double the price, any advice or recommendations for buying with third parties?

General corporate in NY looking to lateral into tech transactions at one of the EC/VC firms. I’ve heard that I may get a class cut if I make the move but I’m ok with that. My worry is that EC/VC firms are crazy busy work differently from general corp, I also won’t have control over my hours, and potentially worse based on how billing differs (block billing on a few clients vs having to work with 15 or more startups). Is the same true for tech trans or IP group?
