Traveling to a wedding with my SO this weekend. We’re flying delta and I have an Amex platinum card so my lounge options are Sky Club and Centurion Lounge at my home airport. However, I don’t have guest access. Anybody know of a good way to acquire sky club guest passes cheaper than the $50 you can pay for a guest with your card?

Rationalize it as $25 a piece. If you get a snack and drink its value is covered.

Any chance you have 5,000 spare skymiles? They would work as alt currency vs the $50 fee.

Tough to find another way since passes aren’t really sharable

I think if Delta is your “Preferred Airline” noted on the platinum card, the fee is deducted from the $200 airline credit. I could be wrong though!

You get your SO a platinum card under your account. Won't help for this weekend, but future problem avoided.

Question about remote job negotiations

I'm currently interviewing for a remote role for a company based in NY.

The thing is I'm based in a different city (southern U.S.)

My question is:

When it comes time to talk compensation, should I base the market rate for the role on my city of residence or NY?

Would it make sense to ask them directly how they determine comp for NY-bases vs. other city-based employees?

Anyone have experience with this?
