Here is some of the best travel news and notes from around the Internet:
- Talk about infuriating – Esquire shares its “tips for how to Road Trip in the Age of Instagram“, and I’m not sure I have read a more annoying road-trip piece, or one more antithetical to how a road trip “should” be (which is how *I* do it, right? :-D). Â What do you think?
- I was featured in a post about how to property dispose of an old credit card – I had some good tips on what to do when you want to destroy a metal credit card like the Chase Sapphire
Do you save seats on Southwest?
- I loved the Deal Mommy’s post on how her #1 go-to tip on how she gets her family seated together on flights. Â Of course the #1 way to do it is to fly Southwest (which lets families with young children board between the A and B groups). Â Just watch out for those Southwest seat savers!
- Drew from Travel is Free shared an interesting article about how he was able to use low-cost discount carriers to fly around the world for under $1000. Â That’s a little different style than my proposed round the world itinerary
- Speaking of round the world itineraries – here’s one family who traveled around the world for THREE YEARS (and lived to tell the tale!) Â Some great tips on how they did it.
