This is a guest post from one of our enthusiastic readers – I think he is a badass spec ops guy or something, because he will only let me publish his first name, Brian; no other identifiers. Anyways, the JTR, or Joint Travel Regulations, goes over official military policies for reimbursing military travel expenses and…
If you don’t subscribe to The Flight Deal, but you like hearing about really cheap flights, you need to start! They’ve always got pretty good deals, but lately they’ve been having some incredible ones. Two recent examples: Philadelphia – Bali on Delta: $541 roundtrip including taxes. I live in Philly, and wish I could…

I know today is supposed to be a Holiday (albeit one I don’t personally believe should be a holiday; I prefer to celebrate Indigenous People’s Day), but today is not a good day for many of us manufactured spenders. What is manufactured spending (MS)? Some of us, like GEN Glenn, fly a lot for business…
Good morning everyone, sorry about the paucity of posts over the past 3 weeks. A lot was going on, most importantly, my co-blogger, and founder of this blog, Glenn, got promoted to Brigadier General – Bravo Zulu Sir!

So you read Boarding Area hourly, know your mile totals on five different airlines, and calculate what year you are going to reach lifetime status in your favorite program. You are officially a frequent flyer guru, but do you share that with others? It can be a problem at work and with friends. You would…
A photo from 11 days ago. I don’t think I need to say more, except that this is really going to cut into my blogging… Yes, that is my lovely family by my side. Thanks in advance for all my well-wishers.
So I don’t write very many hotel reviews, but we got a lucky break when staying in Las Vegas for Boarding Area’s convention, BAcon.

Been looking forward to this for awhile, especially because this will be the first opportunity to meet my co-blogger, Andy, in person! Yep, a year together and it has all been virtual until now. We’re going BWI-LAX-LAS to add…
