Want to Boycott United Airlines? This Chrome Extension helps
It’s no secret that there is a lot of United Airlines hostility as of late, and a lot of people are looking to boycott United Airlines. Now, there’s an easy way to do it, via Chrome. First there was the leggings incident. Then came the entire debacle with Dr. Dao being dragged off the flight. The CEO response was a disaster, and then oh yea, a scorpion fell from the overhead bin and stung someone. Their share price dropped too, wiping...
Breaking: United Airlines Cutting Ties with the Middle East
It’s no surprise that United Airlines, along with the other US airlines Delta and American Airlines, don’t have any love for the Middle East carriers. They’ve been in a war of words now for years, bickering over things like subsidies and unfair trade practices, etc. Well, we’ve just learned today that United is taking their feud one step further, and this one doesn’t really seem to make sense. We’ve...
Win a 3 night stay at the W Hotels and more!
It’s no secret that we love the W Hotels Bed, and Starwood hotels in general. We’ve got a bed ourselves and it’s pretty freaking amazing. We wrote about a sale that the W Hotels was having a while back on their bed, and a reader wrote in to comment how much he loved it. If you’ve wanted a bed of your own for free, or maybe just a few nights sleeping on one, now’s your chance. You can enter now for a...
Low Aeromexico Business Class Fares Continue… to Panama!
Not too long ago we reported about the really low business class fares from the USA to South America. Finding decent fares in Business and First class, including Aeromexico Business Class, is what we try to do here. They’re becoming more and more scarce however, as cheap economy tickets have been coming from all over the place. We still like to try and sniff out a deal though! Just a couple of days ago we posted about the $1300...
Owe Taxes this April? Win a Free Flight from JetBlue!
Taxes. They suck. But every year we’ve got to sit down with a calculator and figure out if we owe taxes or if we’re lucky enough to get a refund back. Well, if you’re unlucky enough to have to pay this year, you could win a free flight from JetBlue in order to get the heck out of town and enjoy yourself a little bit! JetBlue is making the sting not hurt quite as much this year with their Tax Return Flight giveaway....
FARE SALE: ROUND TRIP Business Class Sale New York to Paris $1300!
Summer in Paris. What could be better? Right now, for a limited time, you can get round trip business class tickets from New York to Paris for only $1298. This is a limited time business class sale and once they sell their 1,000 tickets, it’s gone! La Compagnie started a few years back and there was a ton of controversy. Could this airline actually work? Could an airline using a couple of 757’s and only offering business...
Hilton Introduces Tapestry, its 14th and most useless brand
Hilton Hotels introduced it’s 14th brand today with almost no fanfare whatsoever. That’s probably because their new brand, Tapestry, is in my mind one of the most ill conceived and poorly marketed hotel brands that I’ve seen launched in quite some time. Currently, the Tapestry Collection has just one hotel in their “collection,” the Hotel Skylar in Syracuse. I will give them credit for one thing. This...
Begpacking – the latest trend in white privilege!
In what seems to be the latest trend of travel white privilege run amok, apparently there has been an uptick of ‘begpacking’ around the world. For anyone who’s wondering – just like I was before I came across the term- a ‘begpacker’ is apparently mainly a traveler from a western country who decides to backpack, but since they don’t have a lot of funds to do so, they resort to begging. I learnt this after I ran into this LeMonde...
United Airlines CEO Oscar Munoz’s Late Apology
The saying “better late than never” is what United Airlines CEO Oscar Munoz effectively said today, as he went out of his way, again, to issue a third statement to the brutal passenger debacle that happened Sunday night. Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you now know what’s happened with United Airlines and their ridiculous actions in removing a passenger from a Chicago to Louisville flight. In an...
United Airlines loses over $650,000,000 after passenger is beaten
Oops. Today, as of 1045am EST, United Airlines stock is down over 3.8%, which represents a drop of over $650,000,000 in market cap in just one day. Yesterday, the stock price was up slightly, but mostly because the fallout and blowback hadn’t reached the epic proportions that it did overnight. Perhaps it would have been better just to offer someone $2,000 for their ticket instead of violently beating, dragging, and abusing a...
