Articles
A Caribbean Island’s Audacious Tourism Experiment – New York Times
A weird set of restrictions but if you could pull it off it could offer one of the most unique vacation memories I guess. It means there will be almost no one competing with you for beach space or services.
Is a New Premium World of Hyatt Credit Card in the Works – Flyer Talk
There isn’t much here but I do believe the smoke. There are some things in the works that make me feel like this is happening.
Government seizes billions in cash from air travelers without ever filing a criminal charge – Fox 46 Charlotte
While I would say you should never fly with a ton of cash because that seems foolish, it isn’t illegal and there are no limits in the US for flights. The fact that they can just take your money without real cause and never file charges or let you fight it in court is criminal though. This is theft in my opinion, plain and simple.

The title of the “island for the rich” NY Times article is overstated. The island is not allowing tourist but is allowing remote workers who stay for at least two months and who have an annual income of at least $70k. Considering that this threshold is not much higher than the average annual income for US households, a fair percent of people would qualify . . . if one can work remotely.
Personally I would prefer not have articles included that require you to create an account or have a subscription to read (NY Times for instance). Hopefully it’s at least an affiliate link.
No such thing as an affiliate link for news articles. You can create a free account and NY Times is a Amex Plat credit option too so most people can read it.
Or you can always google the subject and I’m sure someone else picked it up from their story.
I think I did see they have 4 free articles a month. I just find the more accounts I the more junk mail I get. Just not worth it in IMHO. To each their own.
Have a great weekend!
Totally understandable – you as well Carl!
