At These Airport Wellness Centers, Travelers Can Get a Flu Shot, Schedule a Workout, or Take a Shower.
XpressSpa locations are expanding to offer more services to add convenience to busy travelers. When you’re constantly on the move, getting your medical and physical needs taken care of can be challenging. Would you take advantage of these services if you had a long layover at an airport?

Through the end of the year, you’ll earn 2x Alaska Airlines miles for every dollar you spend on Lyft rides. After that, rewards will drop down to just 1x miles. So, sync up your accounts to take advantage of these bonuses for the next two months. If you don’t already have a Lyft account, please use my referral link.

The only people who like hidden airline fees are Airline Execs and their finance teams.

Gift card fees probably increasing ($7.95 for $200 Mastercards at Staples).
Well, inflation has finally hit the gift card aisle. It sucks that gift cards may become more expensive, but the $5.95 fee for these cards has been flat for many years. And, if you’re using the right cards, you’re still profitable on these transactions. Will an increase in fees impact your desire to buy Visa and Mastercard gift cards?
