Air New Zealand announced new service from Auckland, New Zealand to Chicago. That should mean good things for Star Alliance partner United Airlines and the potential for more award space.
United Airlines continues to cut their Polaris business class service. Maybe they believe customers won’t pay a premium for the extra service. Delta and American have generally been adding benefits, improving their core product. Are they both wrong? Heck, United’s Scott Kirby was a big part of the team that started rolling out Flagship lounges and dining at American. Maybe everyone else is wrong. Or, maybe United’s customers don’t want to pay more for the same shade of lipstick on an older pig.

Here’s a look at the guest rooms and main restaurant at Hyatt Regency Tamaya Resort and Spa. The resort is located on over 500 acres of beautiful land and has a number of hidden gems, like the horse stables.
Delta was really the first to start rolling out new benefits recently to folks purchasing Comfort Plus their premium economy product. They seem ready to do away with the program before anyone else copies them.
Who do you think are the best? Here are my choices.
The Best of the Rest is my effort to summarize all the travel/miles and points stories that interested me on a daily basis but didn’t have time to write about in length. Culled from over 100 blogs/authors I follow, some are passed along without comment, while I add my analysis to others. This is your shortcut to find out what’s going on in the travel world without having to read dozens of travel blogs to get all the best info.
Part trivia question, part geography lesson for the kids. A short diversion on our way to Albuquerque.
Plenty to listen to this week on Miles to Go. Hope you’ll tune in!
According to a report, United Airlines gave a customer $10,000 in future travel credit because they removed her from a flight when her seat was broken. Nobody else on the plane was willing to accept $2,000 to leave (or maybe they weren’t offered)?
