It’s a pretty busy week in the travel-sphere, so let’s take a look at some of the most interesting stores:

  • I had the chance to be interviewed for an article from FOX News entitled Free First Class Airplane Seats and Hotel Suites – Luxury Travel Secrets from the World of Frequent Travelers.

“Frequent Traveler University brings together experts in the miles, points and loyalty field with both beginners and advanced customers alike to try to teach them the best tips, tricks and techniques to help them travel better. Whether it’s the best way to redeem a First Class award ticket, how to get to a specific destination on the cheap, or how to score the next upgrade, attending an FTU allows travelers from across the country and across the world to network with each other to learn the tricks of making travel enjoyable.”

  • A rare look inside SFO’s new Air Traffic Control tower.
  • It’s possible to get 100% back using this new pre-paid card. There are some hoops to jump through, sure, but this looks very very interesting in principle.

If you refer 10 friends and they each refer 5 friends and each of them spend $350, you’ll get 100% cash back when you spend $350 to $1,499.99. And if you spend $1,500, you’ll get Diamond Status and $12,303.90 cash back!

  • The FAA is investigating after a Sweet 16 party was ruined by falling feces.
  • 9 Surprising Facts about Passports
  • Emirates is now banning the transportation of hunting trophies.

SELECT transforms any existing credit or debit card into a black card that unlocks VIP perks, pricing, and experiences at thousands of premier destinations around the world.

    That prepaid card looks suspiciously like a pyramid scheme to me…
