Star Alliance member Asiana is suffering widespread delays for catering and many flights are leaving without meals at all, even on trips as long as twelve hours.

It was more generous than they would have wanted to be. It was also taken advantage by customers at scale, which is a benefit, it's easy for a company to stick it to or ignore one customer by Iberia is going to have to deal with this.

Only twice before that I've seen have they sold miles at 1.72 cents each. First in June 2016, then again in 2017, and now the offer is back. It ran in June, now it's extended through August 1. Continue reading Lowest-Ever Price to Buy American Miles Now Through August 1... A valuable rewards for hotel stays seem to me a function of where you book and how you pay rather than where you stay. That's surprising to some because we've been taught to stay on the hotel loyalty program treadmill.
