The Situation Last March, my spouse and I booked a one-way award ticket to Amman, Jordan to experience Turkish Airlines business class (still haven’t done) using 82,500 Aeroplan miles per ticket. … [Read More…]
Instantly Prevent Your IHG Points From Expiring

70% off of ClassPass from British Airways
I enjoy staying fit when I travel, but visiting a hotel’s fitness center isn’t exactly motivating because there isn’t an accountability factor or someone to tell me to push harder.

Let’s Talk About Hilton Honor’s Ambiguous Late Check Out “Benefit”
In my opinion, the Hilton HHonors program has a very unclear late check out policy for their top-tier Diamond elite members. Hidden in the official “terms” as per the Hilton website is this: Late check-out must be requested and is subject to availability. A few weeks ago my family and I had a fabulous stay at a resort … [Read More…]
Dad Post: 4 Days in Lisbon on a Budget With Day Trips to Sintra and Cascais
I hope everyone had an enjoyable holiday. A few months ago, my son and I took a long-weekend trip to Lisbon. This Lisbon trip immediately followed my budget trip to Krakow, Poland (inspired by a $306 roundtrip flight deal). The motivation to go to Lisbon was also from a cheap fare.
