With this headline, I had to look! Travel Habits of Americans: U.S. Travelers Shun Airline Loyalty Programs. And the byline is so right on in my opinion as a free agent since 2012! “Many airlines have rewritten loyalty rules in recent years to make their programs more profitable and reward the most lucrative travelers. But our data show many U.S. travelers don’t want to play by those rules and aren’t loyal to any airline.”
We are being run over by them low cost airlines you guys, Frontier is on a roll! Blockbuster expansion: Frontier to add 21 cities, 85 routes. Being a former elitist I am hurting inside, thank you for your understanding #crying.
Best bank account bonuses, an up to date listing. Pick up some dinero from the banks you guys. Only take from banks, never give #winning 🙂
Across the pond, all credit card acceptance fees will be gone starting January 13, 2018. May not be all good news…
Have you cursed at Facebook for now playing them videos with sound? What assholes! Turn it off this way!
Did you know about Williams Syndrome? Me neither! I came across this article and immediately thought of a son of someone I know. I sent it to her and they are looking into it as their son shows these symptoms. What are they? They want to hug everyone they see!
Blog reader finds article about balls and I am the first person who comes to mind, seriously? Okay, this is NOT SAFE FOR WORK. And it is a medical condition okay? Which makes a guy’s balls get bigger and bigger. I repeat, do NOT click on this! I have good news though, they operated on the guy and he now has normal balls, thanks science 🙂 (HT: Mileage Update).
How American Families Pay for College in 2017. Some great stats in this one.

Terrific content this morning.
Thank you.
If all donated like you….BestOffersPatrol would not come around here 🙂 #hint
Amazingly, I have enough material it appears for tomorrow and it is only 8 am today! #wow
That Williams syndrome article makes my head shake (not as violently as George’s: I like my eyebrows). Whats wrong with the world? Have we nothing better to do? Oxytocin is routinely used in the milk industry to help cows recover from giving birth quicker. In developing countries it is used to get that last bit of milk out of cows each day, a practice that is supposedly banned in the western world. Humans supposedly also can’t absorb oxytocin via the digestive system 😉
It was a good story Oliver!
“What makes a guy’s balls get bigger and bigger?”
I’ll be distracted all morning sorting through the comment possibilities for that one.
Inspire? Indeed.
I was intending to make that be entertaining….Finding it inspiring is a bonus 🙂
I want that HT please. No need to hide from finding bizzare stuff online 🙂
Done.
Hope you get as many groupies as me next 🙂
I cracked up at the poor FT’er who didn’t know that his comment was going to get deleted by The Renes!
I’ve never flown Frontier – is it tolerable enough if the price is right? Better or worse than Spirit?
I find Spirit tolerable.
I heard Frontier is worse than Spirit. In Denver some months ago there was an unbelievable breakdown in their operations, google it.
You’re right that doesn’t paint a very good picture of Frontier! Yikes!
I think, but dont quote me, both of tbese airlines are owned by the same private equity guys…

Doctor of Credit links to OMAAT memoimyselfI moronic post about Fluffy Skies…Time to take out a link from tomorrow’s TBB post #payback 🙂
I actually thought that was one of Ben’s best-written articles.
I guess you can’t ever take the bias goggles off
Hard to take the blog seriously when so much other crap is blogged there…
If you only knew how much $$$ the fart articles brought in…
Anything worth drinking from Martha Stewart Wine Co?
We got our first shipment last week. The first bottle we tried was just fine. For $2-$4 per bottle delivered, it’s a great deal.
Is Martha better looking than Nancy?
🙂
Buzz you really have the hots for Nancy Pelosi, don’t you………perhaps cadaver sex would interest you too!
That is so so harsh man!
Leave her alone. Here is George’s photo of her before their last meetup.

If I was Rene I will ban your ass. Heckler’s too. Proudly!
U both are so full of HATE!
Lol.
Hola amigos
Good content George. Didn’t click in the balls article, but sounds interesting..
Day 3 and BA still not showing AA availability. If I had transferred MRs I would be shitting bricks right now. Sad!
I am starting to get really worried now…
tick tack…
I have 500k Avios….I think I may burn some flying around Europe on my return back from Greece in November…while trying to nail that LH F flight back to the US 🙂
Why so many?
I would rather have 500k skypesos or AAdvangtage points than Avios.
At this stage…skypesos is the best currency of these three, sad!
Live and Lets Fly you guys…
“But now a friend was attacked for criticizing it and I feel obligated to weigh in” referring to the OMAAT post…
Shaking my head…
At least Doc is not kissing ass like this 🙂
I always speak up when Daraius of Million Mile Secrets–a close personal friend of mine–is attacked.
Vomit! L&LF and the rest of the BoardingArea “Mutual Admiration Society” are looking more and more pathetic by the day.
I can’t help but wonder if OMAAT asked AFFS to do this as a “you scratch my back, I’ll scratch yours” mutual publicity generator (not that either party will get much from it). I can’t figure out why else they would bother arguing with a two-bit wannabe squawking from sidelines. No one besides OMAAT’s handful of rabid fans gives a rat’s ass about his opinion.
I must have Anti-Williams Syndrome…I really don’t like hugs much.

Great set of articles today. Wouldn’t say a single link was greatest of all time but overall combo might have been the best I’ve seen
Thanks for the feedback and the support.

My mind went immediately to calculate the commission on that!
Oh man…I have no integrity at all.
Ingy was right again!
