New IHG Premier Select Card (2026)
Chase and IHG have officially unveiled their newest credit card, the IHG Premier Select Card. This card is likely intended to compete with other higher annual fee hotel cards, such as the Marriott Bonvoy Bevy and Bountiful cards or the highest annual fee hotel cards, like the Hilton Aspire Card but at a more tolerable…
Wednesday Reblog: Hotel Marmorosch, Bucharest Romania
For this week’s Wednesday Reblog, I thought it’d be fun to reblog a hotel review from back in 2022. This report was one of my first attempts at a hotel review, but I didn’t have a clear plan on what I wanted out of a hotel review for the blog. For example, I didn’t take…

On a recent trip to DC near my birthday, I needed a hotel for one night, and I had an 85k point Marriott certificate begging to be used, so I decided to book a night at the St Regis Washington DC. This hotel has been of interest for quite a while for me because it…
Wednesday Reblog: St George Airport

Wednesday Reblog: SwissAir A220
This week’s primary blog post was about Delta’s A220 economy class experience, so I thought it would make sense to reblog my first A220 flight, which was on SwissAir a few years ago when I took a trip to Berlin for Easter. Having now been on A220s a few times, I have consistently found them…
Delta A220 economy seats: San Jose to Denver via Salt Lake City (Companion Pass)
This week I’m going to shake things up a bit and share with you a recent trip I took to Denver to go to a friend’s wedding! Now, coming from the San Francisco area, you might think the logical option is to fly United to Denver and take advantage of their hub-to-hub flying. I live…
