Uber to the Rescue after taking Wrong Airport Shuttle; TravelCon Las Vegas Details Announced

Good morning everyone.  I am writing to you from beautiful Embassy Suites San Francisco Airport South San Francisco, which is not to be confused with Embassy Suites San Francisco Airport Waterfront (which is located South of San Francisco Airport).  This here lies the problem, or rather, the problem that I ran into last night as I attempted to take the correct airport shuttle to the correct Embassy Suites hotel.  As you can probably guess, I got on the wrong airport shuttle.  Instead of taking the airport shuttle back to the airport, waiting for the correct airport shuttle to arrive, and then drive to the other Embassy Suites, I decided to request an UberX ride from one Embassy Suites to the other Embassy Suites.

Happy Labor Day everyone!  Greetings from the uncrowded Las Vegas Centurion lounge.  I have 2 exciting new meetups to share.  The first is the official SF Travel Hackers Meetup group.  This month’s discuss will center on “a range of more beginner topics – with the aim of getting you to jump in and make your first booking, now that you have a lot of frequent flyer miles. Our speaker will cover how to choose a destination, and how to use a variety of programs to make a great trip. The focus is putting your miles into action!  We’ll also be talking about staying fit abroad and how to manage jet lag and dehydration on your journey.”

New AMEX Offers: 1,000 MR Points for $50 Whole Foods Purchase, See Your City Dining Program, and Others

(Hat Tip to Doctor of Credit’s Post)

Good morning everyone, I have a few new AMEX Offers to share with you today.  The most exciting offer is for Whole Foods.  A few weeks ago, there was a similar offer at Whole Foods where you could get a $10 statement credit after spending $75.  Today’s Whole Foods offer is even better.  Get 1,000 American Express Membership Reward Points after spending $50 at Whole Foods.  Since this offer pays out in AMEX MR Points, this offer will only show up on AMEX MR Point-earning credit/charge cards.  All other AMEX cash back or miles/points earning cards are excluded from this promo.
