Legoland Beach Retreat Hotel (Florida) Review

Legoland resort in Winter Haven, Florida has opened a new hotel. Along with the original Legoland Hotel, they now have the Legoland Beach Retreat. The Beach Retreat is comprised of cottages with patios, a pool, restaurant and other fun activities for the kids. Which is better, Legoland Hotel or Beach Retreat?

Do your kids love Lego? Heck, do you love Lego? If so, a trip to Legoland should probably be in your future. To really do it right, a night at Legoland Hotel should be in your future as well.

Which Major Vegas Strip Casino Is Eliminating Parking Fees?

Parking fees have swept across Las Vegas like wildfire. Now, with virtually all major casinos charging for parking, there seems to be a reversal in the works.

The Next Travel Book You Should Read

I’m a voracious reader. I always have been. On a daily basis, I read two newspapers, ESPN.com’s front page numerous times, dozens of blogs and whatever book I happen to have hiding in my Kindle app on my iPhone. I read fiction and non-fiction alike. A few weeks ago, I received a new book that was in the travel genre.

Is Foursquare Dead?

Venture Beat doesn’t think so, and I’m not 100% sure they’re wrong. But, before I discuss the article, a little background on why someone allergic to social media like me became a Foursquare nut. A few years ago, a company called TopGuest came up with this concept where you could earn airline miles and hotel points for checking in at various places on Foursquare. I can’t say I thought it was a terribly good business model, but they convinced a bunch of hotel chains to hand out miles for this. […]

A Summary Of United Airlines Global Services Benefits

As travel has gotten more stressful the benefits of elite status are even more valuable. In some cases, what used to be free for everyone is now only free for those customers that fly most frequently. I value my American Airlines Executive Platinum status more highly than any status I’ve earned, including 1K service with United Airlines. However, Global Services is another matter. For those not aware, Global Services is an invitation-only status level that United bestows on their best customers. What defines a best customer? Well, United doesn’t list […]

Update: American Airlines Variable Choice Plus Pricing A Feature, Not A Bug

I have to admit, I was pretty pleased with the original announcement that American Airlines was creating bundled pricing that included change fees at a lower apparent cost. Things got a little better when American also announced they were expanding the timeframe you could request a same day change to your flight. And, then things started to get a bit screwy. It started with just one flight I couldn’t get to price right with Choice Plus as an add-on. But, then I did a bit more digging and found out […]

I Flew Frontier, Saved $400 And Didn’t Die. My Frontier Airlines Review

Those low-cost carriers always have very appetizing fare sales. Who wouldn’t want to pay $20 to fly somewhere? But, what does $20 really buy you? I found out exactly what Frontier does (and doesn’t) offer customers on my first flight with them recently.

Clarity On Restriction of American Airlines Ticket Sales in Argentina

There seems to be some clarity on exactly how American Airlines will handle restrictions for ticket sales in Argentina. I received the following information that was sent by American Airlines to ticket agents today: Argentina Point of Sale Restrictions September 26, 2014 American Airlines has implemented sales restrictions for Argentina point-of-sale on our flights to/from Buenos Aires (EZE), Argentina. These sales restrictions do not apply to point-of-sale outside of Argentina. Reservations can still be made or ticketed for travel on American and American codeshare (AA*/OA) flights for departures prior to: […]
