Yay Photos

I have over 500 photos saved up for the blog, here's my oldest two and newest two in inventory.

Southwest Shop Sale

The Southwest Airlines company store is having a sale. They don't gouge you on shipping either.

Burning Miles - Alaska

I do practice what I preach, my Alaska Airlines balance is 0. I like Mileage Plan, but I don't trust any airline program to stop points inflation.

The Perfect Balance

I also got my Southwest balance to 67, but then earned some bonus points. Still good.

I Like the New Look

AA Miles

I have about 56,000 AA miles and face a conundrum. Do I want 4 domestic one ways, two first one ways, or earn 1,500 points and get a business class one way to Europe? I have time to decide and can move some SPG points quickly if needed. I don't feel inspired to earn beyond that mark. The heavily restricted premium award space (oneworld partners included) is taking the fun out of earning miles.

Where to?

Happy Photo Day

The A340 is Cool

A380 Updates

I like the new winglets that reduce fuel burn by 4%, the rest has me suspect. It's the same size tube, hard to fit 80 more seats without Spirit Airlines type space.

Already Holds 500+

Qatar Fare Sale

Want to wager the recent airspace restrictions on Qatar will be short term? Then book a coach fare on Qatar for a discount. Worst case your flight will take much longer than it should.
