Delta Will Sell You Elite Qualifying Miles And Even Elite Qualifying Dollars!

As airlines are wont to do (see, for instance, American’s offer), Delta will sell you elite qualifying miles to top off your 2014 total and boost your 2015 status. Delta, looking out for my best interests, won’t sell me any qualifying miles since they’ll sell you between 2500 and 10,000 miles and I’m more than […]

British Airways Visa 10% Discount Extended Through 2015

One of the best thing about booking revenue tickets on British Airways is that there are two great discount offers out there, which can be stacked:

-- A 10% discount on revenue British Airways tickets for those with the the British Airways Visa Signature® Card

-- A $65-400 discount per revenue British Airways ticket ($65 for economy, $130 for premium economy, or $400 for business/first class) for AARP members

Obviously this is useful when booking revenue economy tickets, since you can get both $65 off, plus a 10% discount.

15 delusions about returning home

"An easier option is to take your friends to a Spanish/Thai/Vietnamese/Arabic restaurant and point out the best dishes with an authority bordering on arrogance.
