Miracle at sea: Man plunges from one cruise ship, rescued by another – USA Today

This happens a lot more often then I would have ever thought.  It even happened on Bethany’s recent cruise.

The biggest difference between Basic Economy and Regular Economy I’ve seen so far – Andy’s Travel Blog

This article went a totally different way then I thought it was going to (thought it was talking about the service etc.) but this is still pretty surprising.  No shocker that it is American Airlines that is the culprit.

Marriott Travel Packages are getting more expensive (also maybe more valuable) – The Free-quent Flyer

A good breakdown of how big of a devaluation this may be and why you may be better off turning your current 7 night certificates back into points.

Toy Story Midway Mania Tips And Tricks. Set A New High Score! – Pizza in Motion

For the Disney lovers out there.  Some good tips for the Toy Story Mania ride.

United’s problem is…everything – Points with a Crew

Ian’s experience sounds very familiar to mine with American Airlines.  That is why I try to fly Delta often, even if they don’t have the best award chart.  And my secondary option is Southwest, even though I don’t love the boarding procedure.
