Priority Pass Lounge Mexico City Airport Review
Mexico City airport has a few Priority pass lounges, and while the American Airlines Admiral’s club was fine, we thought we’d see about one of the other lounges. The Grand Lounge Elite sounds really awesome, right? I mean, it’s Grand, it’s Elite, and it’s a Lounge…must be the best! Well, it’s definitely a Priority Pass lounge because this place was CROWDED. Like, slammed packed. When we arrived, we were the last two allowed in...
Knack Bags – Our New Favorite Work and Travel Bag
I’ll admit that during Covid, the idea of trying out a new bag, or adding a new travel bag to my arsenal, was the last thing on my mind. On the other hand, I’d become so accustomed to traveling with the same boring backpack for so many years, that I had not even considered looking at any other bags. We got turned on to this new company, Knack, and their line of bags designed to give you a #OneBagLife, one bag designed for work,...
Hyatt Regency DFW Dallas Airport, Hotel Review
There are two hotels right at the DFW airport that make transiting a breeze. One is directly connected to the Airport (the Grand Hyatt) and the other which is just a quick 5 minute drive or 10 minute walk away is the Hyatt Regency. Directly adjacent to Terminal C, getting to and from your flight is a breeze Airport Arrival The day was a blistering 108 degrees in Dallas, but once the sun went down it got a little bit cooler. As we...

We’re Back! And We Missed You
Hello y’all! It’s good to be here 🙂 And it’s good to be back. It’s been a whirlwind few months with Covid and we’ve seen a lot of changes in the travel space. Rest assured, all your emails of “are you still alive” have been received, and we appreciate the support.

Highest Ever: 80K Chase Sapphire Preferred Welcome Bonus
Let’s be honest, travel rewards cards probably haven’t been at the front of your mind the past six months. I know I certainly haven’t been thinking about them as much lately. Credit card issuers are aware of that and have had to try to get creative to attract new customers and retain existing ones. For the consumer, that means opportunity. Chase is one of those trying to work their way into your wallet. It’s going to be tough to...
American Airlines 737 MEX-DFW Review
American Airlines offers a “domestic” service on what is very obviously an “international” route, and disappointed on many levels. Here’s a review the underwhelming flight. Perhaps you can use this and learn that just because you’re crossing an international border, it doesn’t mean that you’re going to get a true international service. Mexico City to Dallas is short enough, luckily, that we were back in the states and on our way...
Alaska Airlines Service and Catering during Covid-19
Each Airline is taking their Covid-19 situation slightly differently. Alaska Airlines seems to be taking it a step further, rolling out a “Next Level Care” operation that takes into account everything from cleaning to touch points in the airport. Alaska Airlines’ policies on Covid will remain in effect until October 31st, but I imagine they’re going to be extended past that. An empty plane! Onboard...
