The best views in 15 cities around the world
Villa on Dunbar Rock in Honduras. Divers’ paradise! Just 12km from Roatan. If only this was a Hyatt lol.
Travel Guide to Nevada’s Best Ghost Towns. Pretty cool stuff. My own opinion as always.
And I leave you with this…
Some selected tweets of mine recently for…entertainment:
If u do not get the AmexSPG card today u will be burn in hell eternally on top of being forbidden from ever orgasming again #warning
If you do not get a SPGAmex today u will be locked in a room for days with durian! Unless u are one of them weirdos who like durian #suckit
If u do not get an AMEXSpg card today u will be locked in a room for days with Kim Davis. Oh the horror, the horror #usoscrewed
Breaking:Chaos breaks out in Amex World HQ’s as a bunch of bloggers & several media “expert” Titans are protesting 4 return of SPGAmex promo
If you clicked on the Titan post about a BA RT US-Europe award for just 5.460 Avios you are a dumb ass. Seriously! WTF! Stop the Bullshit!
Blogging can be insanely time consuming sometimes. Help bloggers you appreciate & make a positive difference in your life by spreading the word about their blogs, emailing and commenting and using their few $$ links. Thank you.

Thanks Buzz.
I’m working on trying to figure out ITA Matrix, how do those guys do all that premium flight deals bookings ? Over on FT . It is all Greek to me so maybe you could shed some light on it.
TravelBloggerBuzz says
Travel Codex had a good guide on how to use ITA Matrix.
Mike says
Hi that Anon above was me.
Travel Codex, I will look it up and thank you !

TravelBloggerBuzz says
My blog has a search feature on top to the right of “Contact”. Here is the article that has links to the guide:
http://www.travelcodex.com/2015/03/ita-matrix-isnt-dead-yet-youre-just-using-it-wrong/
Just learn the basics. I always start there when I search for a flight to see the different airlines flying the routes and get a basic idea of the fares!
John says
Applied for an SPG Amex through your link the other day. Got approved. Hope you get some credit for it (since you yourself don’t have direct links). Been sending my Amazon.com purchases through your links too (that is, when I remember to do it). All the other bloggers can kiss my @rse ๐
John says
Now, can you tell me how to MS $5k without going outside (since I can’t)? There are only so many kiva loans I can handle at any one time!
TravelBloggerBuzz says
Thanks a lot John! Much appreciated.
Oh, if you find how to do that 5k MS without going outside please let me know. You know I won’t publish it here to kill the deal like them other bloggers ๐
Enrico Palazzo's Miles Points and Pasta's says
Buzz, you just knew I would love that pizza GIF. I cannot help but laugh each time it runs, though I know the kid on the right probably got 3rd degree burns from the scolding hot cheese on his forearm………………………..I want to give out some love to Chuck Sithe of DOC and LumpyLump76 of Reddit for constantly putting out worthwhile content. Ciao Enrico. #BloggerLivesMatter
TravelBloggerBuzz says
I posted that gif for you!
Bikeguy says
Love your blog, George. Great picks today!
TravelBloggerBuzz says
Gracias amigo! I have two passes for the advance screening of “The Intern” at Quality 16 at 7 pm this Thursday. I can’t go. Let me know if you want them. They say they check IDs but they don’t. In the unlikely instance they ask, just say you forgot your ID back home! Probably should make it there by 6.30 pm.
Anyone else want them in Ann Arbor?
MilesMath says
How many times am I going to see articles about AA flying an uncertified A321 to Hawaii? First OMAAT posted, then other bloggers, then mainstream media. Maybe if they tried to fly an Embraer it would be bigger news, but just shows too many people chasing the same content.
TravelBloggerBuzz says
Yeah, tell me about it….I see this crap all day long my eyes hurt. I only look at VFTW and OMAAT now from the Ignore list and I am still getting a violent reaction with their content…
So I take it out on Twitter and keeping it all positive here lol.
Brian Cohen says
I understand that American Airlines operated an uncertified Airbus A320 airplane to Hawaii, George.
I do not believe anyone covered it; so I thought I would let you in on the scoop…
TravelBloggerBuzz says
We had an emergency TBB Board session to consider dispensing with our once daily morning policy to inform our readers of such important earth shuttering news but we decided not to ๐
