New View From The Wing Site Goes Live Saturday Morning: Here’s What it Means for You

Tomorrow morning (around 10am Eastern) we’re going to start to transition the blog over to a refreshed site. There’s not going to be a lot that’s substantively different, at least at first. The biggest changes are to the ‘guts’ (yes, that’s the, um, technical term) of the site. It will let me: Better organize information […]

He quotes a United spokesperson as describing this as part of their strategy of “giving customers a broad set of redemption options” and the spokesperson also notes United’s “focus on ensuring saver-award availability in general” which seems to suggest that this would be […]

Review: Japan Airlines First Class Lounge Tokyo Narita Airport

I arrived from Jakarta at 6:25AM, and my connecting flight to New York was at 11:10AM, so I had a sizable layover.

I cleared transit security in no time and headed to the Japan Airlines First Class Lounge located in the main concourse, only to discover that it actually opens at 7:30AM, so I had about an hour to kill before I could use the lounge.

Admittedly I should have researched in advance (not that it would have changed anything in practice), but I do find it a bit odd that the lounge opens so much later than the first bank of arriving flights.

Current List of 50,000+ Point Credit Card Offers With Links

Recently, I had a conversation with a follower on Twitter who was looking for a few new credit cards. He lamented the lack of 50,000+ point credit card offers, especially since he had several cards in his wallet. With credit card issuers limiting the number of times a credit card bonus can be obtained within […]

How to Upgrade Your US Airways MasterCard to Aviator Silver

The US Airways Dividend Miles program has been folded into American AAdvantage. And technically now only Citibank has the right to issue new American AAdvantage personal (and small business) co-brand credit cards. Barclays used to issue the US Airways card. There’s still a working link to apply, don’t wait although my best guess is it […]
