I am not sure what took Hyatt so long to come up with a first quarter promotion…but here it is, register now: Earn points faster. Enjoy them sooner. Earn up to 1,500 Bonus Points per qualifying night starting with your second stay through May 15.
The massive Marriott Bonvoy devaluation, in terms of hideous category adjustments, comes in less than three weeks. Here are some 25K, 35K, and 50K Marriott hotel opportunities before and after March 5 2019.
It is always good to see more competition between airlines flying to Greece. Norwegian Air adds new Athens, Barcelona routes; fares from $159. But in this case…will Norwegian Air still be alive by then?
Speaking about Greece, it looks like they will start requiring an international driving permit going forward when you go rent a car. Traveling to Greece? You Need This Permit if You Rent a Car.
What a nightmare! What To Do When Your Passport (and credit cards) Are Stolen Traveling. File a police report pronto!
Is this right? Turkish Air serves the most countries? The top three are:
Airlines by number of countries served:
Turkish: 121
Lufthansa: 105
Air France: 85

Say whaaaat? A CIA-Issued Rectal Tool Kit For Spies.
What a triumph! RIP Mars Opportunity Rover. Designed For 90 Days, It Lasted 14 Years!
Very interesting! The Wealthiest and Poorest County in Every State.
Hey, how come your favorite Titan bloggers bury their readers selling credit cards and hideous National Enquirer clickbait shit and I post finds like this huh? And I get a mere super tiny fraction of the clicks, sad! One day I am going to say enough…one day. Until then, keep enjoying what I post: Telling Three Decades of Regional Airline Stories in One Chart. Lets see which blogger will HT, smh.
And now we are entering BLOG BUZZ, a section for advanced hobbyists and veteran miles and points blog readers.
If there is one thing that makes me barf, it is headlines like this: “This Amex card is driving the internet crazy, and the 100,000 bonus points explains it“. Don’t you EVER click again on that site, WOW! Some will sell their mothers to sell a credit card!
Just fyi in case you are shut down by Citi. Citi Shutdown Due to Number of Inquires/ Accounts #1. Hmmm…
And I leave you with this…

Silver! For the Pacific North West! It’s a holiday Scott! Lighten up, man! Hahahaha!
Well!
The passport link was great. I left mine on the plane a few months. I understand what I would have had to do had it not been found.
Happy Fucking Moron Day!
So glad to be so far away from the border and the invading caravans, this too shall pass # #NationalEmergency Day 4.

You people will believe anything
You too Rams 😉
Getting tired of all the sponsored posts at DansDeals

How’s day 4 of the National Emergency going? I’m peeing in my pants thinking about the alien invasion.
Been daily sponsored posts for nearly a decade. Helps me talk about a card once and give value add info instead of coming up with headlines to post the same exact card in another post every day.
Daily?
I think I am noticing A LOT more in the last three months or so. Or maybe I was hallucinating before?
Just too much man. They don’t add to the readers’ experience. At all.

Same as always, but how does “Support TBB by applying for CREDIT CARDS, shopping with our AMAZON AFFILIATE LINK & clicking our REFERRAL LINKS” add to reader experience?
Never mind that this isn’t your source of income as it is for my family and my kid brother’s family.
That’s why it’s clearly labeled as a sponsored post. Skip right on by, but they still pay the bills.
The difference with mine is…is a tiny part within a post. NOT the WHOLE post dude!
Understood about source of income. I always respected you never pretended you were doing all this for friends and family lol.
I am skipping as soon as I see the title, no need to even look at the clearly labeled “sponsored post”. But I am seeing lots more lately and is getting on my nerves, that’s all. And I use my blog to let it all out, it is my therapy in a sense 🙂
I would never inflict this on my readers…maybe if it was something I supported. But judging from the sponsors on your blog…I would not want to go near them! Then again, my income did not depend on it soooooo maybe I would probably fee and act differently.
Don’t worry about it. But I would love a higher ratio of good useful posts vs sponsored posts. I am okay with the diaper Amazon related posts…after all, your site is about “Deals”.

Lay off Dan. He’s not the first to have to put food on the table:

Oh man, that Latrell crazy guy…had not heard of him in so long!
Of course this dude will post something like this like his idols:

Barf!
I do not get the GIF, great work BTW.
