Jake rambles on about getting a few birthday parties in over the weekend before diving into a refresher course in pre-pandemic hygiene. Skip ahead of if you're already skilled at covering your mouth when you sneeze to hear about something new aboard Delta flights. Plus, Jake is further convinced to keep his IHG card.

Jake and Anthony get to quite a bit of rambling on subjects like outlet shopping, golden birthdays, tax time and more. Somewhere, we work in some sweet Bonvoy redemptions at luxury-level hotels, the new Centurion Lounge at CLT and side-eye an opinion piece from USA today about "free" travel.

Southwest leads the news with an unfortunately needed pre-flight announcement addition. Plus we share speculation about potential pitfalls in Alaska Airline's entry into oneworld alliance and debate the pros of solo travel. Also, I think Anthony is sick.

Jake and Anthony talk alternatives for NY flyers now that Global Entry is suspended by the feds. Plus we're excited about a possible Delta One business class lounge and curious as to why neither of us has flown on Southwest Airlines. Also, Anthony buys BTS tickets.

Jake and Anthony chat about flight cancellations, the extended Lunar New Year and we  dig into new rules for "emotional support" animals on planes. Plus, Black Tomato's Tom Marchant stops by to talk about elevating your travel in 2020 and beyond.

Jake tries (and fails) to make his new battle with shingles sound not gross. Once we get past it, there’s news about a pretty fantastic IHG/Chase signup bonus. Plus, United restricts window shade usage and loses those pesky bag sizers at the gate. Listen:

Jake and Anthony go over the newly added Chase Sapphire Reserve benefits to determine if they're worth paying an extra $100 a month for. Plus we give new reasons to love Delta, talk about an out-of-the-ordinary culinary experience in Southern Spain and we check in on the price of shrimp in Chinatown. Listen:

Anthony knew better than to go anywhere near Times Square on New Years Eve so Jake is solo from the SiriusXM Pandora tower in NYC. It’s just a 4+ minute roundup highlighting a favorite year end tradition of someone else’s blog and a peek into some popular travel spots for 2020.

Jake and Anthony get feels for a new (and very temporary) Virgin Atlantic promotion before turning sad about lost bags in Seattle and floods in Ft. Lauderdale. Plus, a quick look back at our favorite travel moments of 2020.

We're both recovering nicely from the SiriusXM Pandora holiday party the night before. Listen as we sleepily slur news on American's new menu partnership, Delta's new anti-upgrade and an IHG hotel booking trick we learned from a Boarding Area partner...
