Back to the Writing Desk After Siem Reap and Bangkok…

I’m traveling in South East Asia and have been slacking lately, sorry. 🙁 All that flying, riding, driving… Take its toll, you know. It’s also lucky that there hasn’t been anything new in our little mile-and-point universe, either, otherwise I would feel a little guilty. Well, sometimes lack of news is good news.

The regular Chase United Club Credit Card carries $395 annual fee with a $100 statement credit.

The Definitive Guide to Free or Very Cheap Access to Airport Lounges

Cathay Pacific Lounge in Honk Kong Are you still paying ridiculous amounts of money for access to airport lounges? Please stop.

Trains in Europe

Over the weekend, I wrote two posts for Frugal Travel Guy on getting cheap travel on European trains. Travel by train in Europe is a great experience, and it’s often cheaper and less time consuming than flying, thus European trains successfully compete with cheap European airlines. Check out my posts here: European Rail Travel— A Viable AlternativeContinue Reading

Friday Mishmash: Free Book, New Southwest & Capital One Bonus, LAN to Latin America, Atlantic City

This is going to be a long post. Sorry about that. I’ve been criticized that I don’t post every day, but the reason for that is simple. It’s very hard for me to say something when I’ve got nothing to say. I know it doesn’t stop other bloggers who keep talking no matter what, butContinue Reading

Low-Cost Asian Airlines–My Saturday Post at Frugal Travel Guy

Last week, I wrote on ultra-cheap European airlines that can be found here. My today’s post is about Asian Low-Cost Carriers. PhotoContinue Reading

True Low-Cost Airlines

European Low -Cost carriers are a fantastic way to fly. The US doesn’t have true Ultra Low Cost Carriers no matter how hard they are trying to convince you otherwise (please see my yesterday FTG post about Frontier Airlines).
