Last Wednesday details were announced for the new Uber Visa from Barclaycard. Applications are now live. The card offers 4% back on restaurants. It has a $100 signup bonus. There's cell phone protection and a rebate on Netflix or Spotify. It's an interesting no fee card with no foreign transaction fees but it's missing premium benefits from Uber.

I attended the unveiling. The seat reclines flat, meaning it will also be possible to sit in a reclining and relaxing position, so it's good as a seat and not just for sleeping. And the divider between middle seats goes all the way down to create a double bed and indeed a cocoon for two people traveling together.

Singapore Airlines unveiled new cabin products at a presentation in Singapore in Thursday. I poked around the new seats and also took video. All in all I love the style of the new Suites. They're large, they're gorgeous, incredibly sleek and sexy. Singapore goes from having one of the top first class products in the sky with their current A380 to something much better.

They believe that the number one thing they can do to make sure flights arrive on time is to make sure they depart on time. Departures are more controllable than arrivals. After all government completely controls the air space between airports. Continue reading American Gives Up Customer Service for On-time Depatures, and Doesn’t Manage On-time Depatures...          • Email to a friend •   American Airlines Has Started Figuring Out How to Do Breakfast I don't think American's domestic meal service is very good. In fact that's an understatement. I don't think United's is very good, but American's is worse. One area where US airlines are consistently bad across the board is breakfast.

In the meantime though American Express is offering signup bonuses up to 70,000 SkyMiles which I believe is only the second time I've seen a public Delta offer go that high. These offers end in a week so if you want to jump on them, act now.
