The ISIS mobile wallet created in conjunction with AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile in 2010 has a serious branding problem. It coincidentally has the same name as the radical Islamic militant group that is threatening to blow up a US city and recently filmed the beheading of a US journalist (link does not show the video).…
The Le Meridien resolution
Alas, there was no over the water bungalow awaiting me at check in, even as a Delta Platinum member. But I am known as Mr Emergency Air France according to the TV and the room is lovely. As a consolation prize, this was our comped lunch at the restaurant.
Will Delta Platinum status equate to an over the water bungalow?
I posted how my flight back from Tahiti has been delayed due to a fuel issue. After waiting for two hours, they announced that our flight had been cancelled and instructed us to go see a representative in order to get overnight accommodations. There were a lot of people in front of me and they…
Trapped in Tahiti?
I was supposed to be flying back from Tahiti on Air France this morning. Everyone had boarded the plane and we were awaiting our takeoff when the pilot announced over the intercom that we needed to get off the plane due to a fuel problem. They asked us to take all of our belongings with…

Also, the Aeroexpress airport…

The University of Utah Utes, BYU’s arch rival, have taken it even further. Alaska Airlines is offering 20% off to the Utah Utes home and away football…

World Cup memories
I must admit that I got swept up in the 2014 World Cup. I was cheering for the United States even though I knew they had no realistic chance of advancing very far. When the United States advanced out of the so called “Group of Death” by defeating Ghana, I thought there was a slight…
