Good morning everyone, happy Friday! I am about to embark on a week-long trek around Central and South America and I want some trip advice. Here is my itinerary with a 23 hour layover in Panama City (PTY), 2 full days in Lima (LIM), and 3 full days in Cusco (CUZ). If you have been to any of those cities, what do you recommend that I see or do while I am there?
Good morning everyone. A few days ago, my $95 annual fee posted on my Chase British Airways Credit Card and I had to make a few decisions. Would I keep the credit card open and pay the annual fee or close the credit card and avoid paying the annual fee? Could I convert the credit card to a different Chase credit card? Could I transfer the credit line to a different Chase credit card? So many questions, but I ultimately decided to call Chase and ask if they could convert the Chase British Airways Credit Card into a Chase Freedom Unlimited Credit Card.
Good morning everyone, I have a few new AMEX Offers to share. The only 2 that really interest me are Enterprise Car Rental ($20 off $200) and Lumosity ($10 off $50).
Here are the 4 other AMEX Offers I spotted in my account:
Good morning from rainy San Francisco. I hope you all had a great (sunny) weekend. Since I was stuck inside most of the weekend, I did some travel planning (I do that anyway even if the weather is great). I booked a quick weekend trip to Portland in mid May and I even found Alaska Airlines saver award space for the return flight from PDX to SFO at a convenient time (not 6 or 7am). After calling British Airways several times and finally getting through after hearing the busy dial tone 5+ times, I booked the return flight using British Airways Avios. It was not the greatest redemption ever, but I had British Airways Avios to burn.
For the outbound flight from SFO to PDX, I searched on Google Flights and found a few decent flight times and prices. Since I am traveling with my roommate, I needed to get 2 tickets. I have access to a few Alaska Airlines $99 companion ticket codes (the codes are transferrable and can be booked by anyone). Here is the standard price for 2 one way tickets:
And here is the price with the $99 Alaska Airlines companion ticket. As you can see, the price with the companion ticket is 43 cents higher than booking the flights without the companion ticket. I decided to save the companion ticket for a future flight and researched other flight options.
Good afternoon everyone, here is a summary of my 2 week trip to Europe from January 2016. Here is my planning and booking process: Hotel & Flight Bookings for LHR, CDG, NCE, MUC, VCE, and DUB. Here is a visual representation of my intra-European flights. I also flew from SFO-LAX-LHR on American Airlines and DUB-SFO on Aer Lingus (not pictured).
