East Coast Quarantine, Amex Posting Missing Points & Travel Reports During The Pandemic

American Express Automatically Issued Missing Membership Rewards Points from AMEX Business Platinum 35% Rebate – Travel With Grant

This whole thing seems like a 💩 show.  Why not just make the points worth more at booking time Amex?  Save yourself the embarrassment of your terrible IT.

New York, New Jersey and Connecticut Requiring Some Visitors to Quarantine – Travel Pulse

I wouldn’t be surprised to see more states do something like this.  The states that were hit hard the first time around are trying to keep a second wave from happening. How it is actually enforced is anyone’s guess though.

Traveling During The Pandemic – Various Outlets

Ian and Shawn have shared their experiences traveling and flying during the pandemic on the site:

• Flying During The Pandemic, What Was It Like?
• My Experience Staying At Flamingo The First Week Vegas Opened
• I  Traveled This Past Weekend & It Was Both Amazing And Terrifying

Greg from Frequent Miler and Ben from One Mile at a Time recently shared their experiences as well.  I thought it is worth reading them to see how much an experience can vary depending on where you travel.  And that was a big part of the reason we canceled our Hawaii trip, because you just don’t know what type of trip you are going to get.  With everyone making up their own rules, airlines included, it can be a stressful and frustrating experience.  That is why I booked travel that completely goes against my norm this summer.
