Want to go to the Olympics? Here’s how to get tickets
I had the joy of going to the Olympics in London in 2012 with my mom, and we scored some amazing tickets. It was my first time in London and seeing the Olympics was the icing on the cake. This year the Olympics are in Rio and, contrary to popular belief, tickets are still available and for certain events they’re in good supply! The Olympics this year are just a few months away, yet tickets are still available and flights are...
Sheraton Grand Hotel Dubai and Holiday Inn Al Barsha
There are dozens of chain hotels in Dubai to choose from. IHG has a dozen or so, so does Starwood. Marriott has around 10, and Hyatt has 4. Heck, even Club Carlson has around 6 to choose from. Since we wanted to keep our platinum status with Starwood, we opted for the Sheraton Grand Hotel Dubai because of it’s central location and low point redemption options.

African Adventure: Overview and Booking
Africa has always been a continent that we’d been interested in visiting, and finally the opportunity arose to allow us to visit our 6th and final continent (barring Antarctica). It was a really complicated booking, and took us through 3 continents, 7 countries, 16 individual flights, and tens upon tens of thousands of miles inside airplanes, taxis, tour cars, and buses. With that said, it was all worth it, and we...
The African and Middle Eastern Adventure of 2016 Begins!
Well, we’re finally back after 3 weeks in Africa and the Middle East, and still unbelievably jet lagged. Â We crossed a dozen time zones, took 16 flights on 8 airlines, and stayed in a dozen hotels. But, despite all the hectic running around of all that travel, we had some of the most amazing experiences of our life. Â We trekked around the desert on camels, walked inside pyramids and ancient...
Millennium Mayfair High Tea and Borough Market
There’s something to be said about afternoon tea. Consider it one of the traditions of old that the British have held on to and still do quite well. There are literally hundreds of hotels in London that will serve you high tea, and we’ve sampled quite a few. But the service and quality of the food that we’ve experienced at the Millenium Mayfair hotel near the US Embassy is second to none....

Korean flies their 777 product from Seoul to Seattle and competes with another direct flight from Asiana and Delta into Seoul. When using Skymiles you’ve got two options with Delta and Korean, and they both offer varied products. As we’ve flown longhaul business with Delta before, we wanted to give Korean air a shot.

Korean Air Prestige Lounge, Seoul
Nobody likes layovers. Especially not a 10 and a half hour layover in a foreign country. But with the Incheon airport’s commitment to making the journey pleasant, it’s actually a pleasure to be stuck in the airport.
