Travel Hacking: The Alaska Airlines Companion Fare

The Alaska Airlines Companion Fare is arguably the best benefit of having the credit card issued by Bank of America. It allows two people to travel together, while the second person only has to pay the taxes and fees. Currently, the offer from Bank of America is waiving the $99 co pay, but every year upon renewal, you’ll pay that in addition to the taxes and fees. One of the questions we get all the time is...

LEAKED: United Airlines is launching a new product, United Coast

It seems that United has been in the press a lot lately, but mostly for bad news. The airline has taken quite the beating (pun intended) over the past few months, so it’s not shocking that they would want to make some changes to hopefully get some positive press. Enter, United Coast. It would seem that United Airlines has decided to launch something new, but in name only. A source with direct knowledge of the change has informed...

ITC Mughal Agra, A Taj Mahal Luxury Hotel Review

The ITC Mughal Agra hotel is tucked away on a very unassuming street just a few kilometers from the Taj Mahal. After an absolutely exhausting day of being on the road and some quick sightseeing, we were beyond ready for a relaxing luxury stay. Our first stay in India was at the Park Hotel in Delhi, and that … well… sucked. Like, really crappy. So, we were hoping for a step up, and this hotel delivered! On our recent trip...

Delta Status Match Expanded, Full Details

A lot of airlines offer a status match or even challenges to earn top tier elite membership in their program, so you don’t have to start from zero and work your way up. It’s a smart way for airlines to try and grab loyalty from other airlines and get some of that money over to them.
