American Airlines and Award Wallet are Back Together!

Award Wallet is the greatest thing since sliced bread and I am pleased to announce that American Airlines has finally allowed Award Wallet to stalk track it’s members’ miles.  As soon as I heard of the news (you can read the official press release if you want), I went online and added my family’s American Airlines accounts to my Award Wallet.  I am the one in charge of keeping everyone’s miles in order.  If you do not have an Award Wallet account, please read What is Award Wallet?

Up next, I hope to see Delta and United return to Award Wallet and maybe even Southwest Airlines, but they are definitely a long shot.

FTU and GPS: Frequent Traveler University and the Galápagos Islands

Frequent Traveler University (FTU for short) is being held in Tampa, Florida on September 27-29.  FTU is like Comic-Con, minus the costumes, capes, swords, and crazy makeup.  Instead, it is a gathering place for frequent travelers to meet, talk, share travel secrets, and recount their personal trip reports.  It is a great place to meet people who don’t think it’s strange that you have more than 10 credit cards and know exactly which credit card to use for every transaction.  You can find more info here (link).

FTU

Anyways, I was looking forward to my FTU trip at the end of September when The Flight Deal shared an amazing trip from MIA (Miami, Florida) to GPS (Galápagos Islands) for $377 round trip (link). I couldn’t believe my eyes! The Galápagos Islands is one of many places on my bucket list and I couldn’t let this deal pass me by.
