When booking award travel on Delta, are all award flights fully refundable, including basic economy? I've only ever booked main cabin higher and canceled. I always thought you couldn't with basic economy. I hope this is the case because it would save me an extra 8000 miles and I don't care if I fly basic economy.

From Delta

Basic Economy Award Tickets cannot be changed. However, you may cancel for a cancellation charge assessed in miles, which is deducted from the value of your ticket and the remaining mileage balance will be redeposited into your SkyMiles account

I know what the terms say but I haven’t not seen a data point where people have actually been charged the cancellation miles or fees. I was looking for a data point where someone was actually charged the miles or fees for basic economy award cancellation.

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.

Does relocation to touristic cities (workations) really work? I have experience working summer jobs in foreign countries and was thinking about doing that now, or at least plan for next year.

I am curious about the impact it has on the work/life balance as well as the mental health, after several years of doing the same position in different companies.

Help!! My bestfriend is doing two months abroad and was trying to fly into turkey when they told her she couldn't because her passport expired within three months.

She went to the US Embassay in Athens knowing she had a month left of traveling, and gave her an emergency passport and punched holes in her exsisting one. Now no country will let her in with her emergency passport.

Can her mom get her a passport in the US and ship it to her? Is there anyway around this?

Thank you!!
