Ralph Nader’s Letter to United CEO Jeff Smisek

Ralph Nader — a truly important voice in the 1960s and 1970s, who hasn’t been relative since 1992 — wrote an open letter to United CEO Jeff Smisek. He criticizes United’s share buybacks, largely as a rhetorical device to contrast his real target: United’s decision to outsource machinist union jobs. (United reached a deal with […]

“It Can’t Hurt To Ask” When Traveling — True Or False?

Obviously everyone approaches life differently, and there's no place that's more apparent than in the travel industry.

Perhaps contrary to how I sometimes come off on the blog, I'm generally pretty quiet and try to be cognizant of my surroundings. Many might say I take it to an extreme. I hate talking in elevators, because I don't want to disrupt others, and I won't even talk on my phone in an Uber without asking the driver. I realize I'm an extreme case, but stay with me here...

From observing how others travel, there's one area where I've noticed an especially stark contrast.

Traveling on Separate Tickets: How Checked Bags and Protection During Irregular Operations Work With American and oneworld

Reader Robert wanted to know, I wish to understand how business class flights booked with Avios points and different One World partners can be put together to form a single itinerary with a common luggage limit.

The 8 Best Complimentary Spa Treatments In Airport Lounges

There aren't many things more relaxing than a nice spa treatment before a longhaul flight. While many airports have paid massage facilities, rarely are they actually relaxing given the terminal background noise.

So I figured I'd compile a list of what I consider to be the best complimentary spa treatments available in airport lounges. The list is just based on lounges I've been to, and as always, your mileage may vary. I'll also add that I'm only including one lounge per airline. In many cases airlines have more than one lounge with spa treatments, though I'll just include the lounge where I had the best experience.

With that in mind, what do I consider to be among the world's best complimentary airport lounge spa treatments?
