Don’t Be A Jerk Rant, Are Banks Invading Our Privacy & Is Free Breakfast Really Overrated?

In this episode of the Miles to Memories podcast we discuss where vaccinated travelers get special treatment, are banks invading our privacy and whether or not free breakfast is overrated.  Mark also does a rant about people not being jerks, a great car rental tip and some juicy new spending offers.

  1. The biggest benefit to having breakfast at the hotel is that it’s the meal that you are least ready to go out in public for. Many just roll down in their PJs. Also, the post breakfast deuce at an outside restaurant is much more problematic. So to me it’s a big deal. I’ll definitely save my Hilton points/certs for international destinations.

    Regarding upgrade offers:. Any DPs of offers out there for Amex Bonvoy to Brilliant? I haven’t seen a single one.
