Last Chance – SW Companion Pass
Arguably called the 'best deal in travel', my wife and I each held the CP for 6 years running with each of us designating one of our two children as our companions. That meant both our kids flew FREE when we booked a Southwest flight. But Southwest's Companion...
Breaking Bills for Tips without a Bank
As a travel hacker I use credit cards for just about everything to earn miles and points. But I still carry some cash, mainly a bunch of 20s from the ATM, in my pocket for the unexpected. But before heading out on a trip, I always like to break a bunch of $20s...

Milo got in trouble last week for tearing a hole in my wife's brand new top from Express. She hadn't even had a chance to wear it yet. But don't worry she can't stay mad at her 'baby' for very long. I'm not sure why but the old American Express commercial where a lady...
Re-purpose a Hotel Key
Last week I was on a Southwest flight flying home from Cancun. I was lucky enough to snag the exit row window seat with 5' of legroom. A couple sat next to me and part way through the flight they wanted to watch a movie together. Unfortunately they were sharing one...
