I admit, I have a hard time with Black Friday/Cyber Monday. Part of me is like, man it’s a lot of work to get the best deals! And the other part is like, send me ALL THE $10 CROCKPOTS. Regardless, there are good deals to be found if you want to make the effort. To…
Automated security lines have been rolling out at airports across the country for a couple of years, but I finally had the opportunity to experience them myself last month. My thoughts, in short: YES. The system feels a little different but it definitely makes security lines move faster. And anything that gets me to spend…
I love wine. Like, I love it a lot. I love the taste of it and the way it makes me feel. But, I also recognize that drinking too much of it can lead to unfortunate situations, so I know when not to overindulge. Alas, on a recent flight home from London Heathrow to DFW…

Last week I wrote about how to share the overhead bin space. One of my suggestions was to not put two bags up, which is a fairly standard guideline that most airlines have. After that post, I got an email response that seemed to go even further: I hate it when people put laptop bags…
For a lot of women, fixing their hair is the most time-consuming grooming task of their day. Between washing, blow drying, and styling, it’s easy to spend a good 30 minutes each morning just on hair. My curly hair dries out if washed every day, so at least that saves me a little time. Even…
Occasionally I look back fondly at my first couple of years as a business traveler (over a decade ago, hard to believe). Upgrades were plentiful, you could easily hop on an earlier flight, and there was plenty of room for carry-ons. Alas, things have changed. These days flying standby is almost unheard of and getting…
