Some interesting notes in and around the travel world
- Some of the hardest premium cabin awards to find nowadays are direct flights from the western United States to Europe. Â The Frugal Travel Guy has some tips on how to score one of those sought-after tickets!
- Traveling internationally with kids? Â Travis has a post at One Mile at a Time about how to use Global Entry with kids to skip the long immigration lines. Â Don’t think just because you (the parents) have Global Entry that it means that your kids can skip the line too! Â They have to sign up for Global Entry as well.
- 7 steps to planning the perfect family road trip? Â Sign me up! Â We just got back from an epic road trip through Yellowstone and Mt. Rushmore
- I’ve been enjoying reading Jeffsetter’s posts about his recent “retirement”. Â Here’s one detailing a private cliff overlooking the beach in Mendocino, California
- Want to travel like it’s 1950? Â Raising Dick and Jane have 6 tips for how to simplify travels (and do it cheaper too!) Â One of the tips was to ditch the electronics – something we did on a recent 17 hour trip – it worked great!
- I wrote last week about the SPG American Express Business card – how it gave access to Sheraton business lounges. Â Frequent Miler has a great post about whether that benefit works for authorized users, award stays, or other combinations.
