Hey readers! Got a question or something you want to discuss this weekend?  Here’s the perfect opportunity!  Whether you want to share an interesting travel story, a packing tip, an etiquette tip, or anything else going on in the business travel world, comment here and we’ll have a discussion.

Travel tip of the week:

• Give Uber a try!  I have to admit I was a little skeptical at first when I heard about ridesharing services such as Uber, but I have to say I’ve been really happy with my experience overall.  I’ve been using it for five months now and it has been really convenient when I’m traveling in New York and don’t want to rent a car.  It’s super easy to locate a ride using their app, you can choose drivers that have the best reviews, and when the ride is over it automatically charges my card and emails me a receipt so I can get on my way without delay.  So if you haven’t tried them yet give it a shot! Be sure to also check out my post on my first Uber experience.

Comment of the week:

• @Laura shares her opinion on a post I did about Hard sided vs. soft sided suitcases.  “I switched over to hard sided cases about five years ago and I am SO happy I did. I could care less about protection of my stuff, since as Lady Light Travel points out, I don’t check my bag and it’s with me 99% of the time. But my hard sided bag is very lightweight (it’s the relatively cheap Heys X-Case) and VERY small – to the point where colleagues have commented in an impressed way on its small size.  With a hard sided case……” Read the rest of the comment here.
