This time we bring you a tropical libation from the great St. Regis Bahia Beach trip we had a few weeks back. Upon check-in a few years ago, a rum fruit punch was offered. Not this time. The St Regis has upped their game with this welcome amenity. St Regis Bahia Beach Happy Hour The…
What do you do on a 5 hour layover in Los Angeles International Airport? Search the airport for a good place to eat, catch up with friends and drink, of course. But if you aren’t a regular visitor to the Los Angeles Airport, where do you go? The first stop might be to consult twitter and…
I’m at the Park Hyatt in Seoul this week. I am both a points-and-miles junkie as well as a cocktail junkie, so I always have a tough time choosing between the Hyatt Diamond food-and-beverage amenity and the points. I usually take the food-and-beverage at Park Hyatts and the points at other Hyatt hotels. Park Hyatt…
Today’s Travel Tip Tuesday post is from a reader who actually won a contest that we did last year where we gave away Club Carlson 2 night certificates. If you are interested in more contests, check out this one that we announced today, Win Delta Silver Status – Enter Here! Reader Trevor stayed at the Radisson Corpus…

This week, we award reader Olivia for her submission of this picture. Big Pine Island – Travel Tip Tuesdays “This is a…
The best points and miles piece of news today was the fact that American Express Membership Rewards is offering huge 40% transfer bonus to British Airways Avios points. This is one of the biggest transfer bonuses to British Airways that I can remember, the last time I saw one, it was only 35% (which was…

We run around in such a small community it feels like everyone of our readers is a friend, a friend of a friend or a future friend. What a close bunch of travelers we are!

That’s right, starting December 1st, Delta is expanding its selection of regional and craft beers to the East Coast Shuttle, West Coast Shuttles and on transcontinental flights. I think Beer-Thirty just got a little bit better in Business Class on Delta flights. But don’t worry if you’re an epicurean stuck in economy, you can still enjoy…
I was there not too long ago, as I’m sure you have been as well. After a long day of traveling, client meetings, long check-in lines and an upgrade to an accessible room, it’s time to relax and unwind. As you go to pour out your prize for the evening, you realize a wine bottle…
Tapas is a term for a small plate, or appetizer, served all over Spain. Tapa can be hot dishes, or cold side snacks. One of the largest ‘tapas markets’ in Madrid is the Mercado De San Miguel. It’s next to the Plaza Mayor in the city center. It’s an upscale (almost gourmet) open market where…
Among all the pizza, pasta and gelato in Venice is a drink … the most important drink in Venice … the Aperol spritz. It has a number of names – the Spritz Veneziano, the Venetian spritz, or just the spritz. I wasn’t familiar with Aperol prior to my visit. It’s a bitter-sweet neon orange liquor…
Nothing better than capping off a long week with a happy hour, especially when it comes with a view like this. Here’s our Friday #PMMHappyHour from Anguilla Meads Bay at the Blanchard’s Restaurant. Share your happy hour by tweeting a picture of your cocktail or fantastic view to @weeklyflyer #pmmhappyhour. Where’s your most recent happy…
In the past, we’ve shared “How To Take The edge Off” from your hotel room. That was a hit and many people could connect with the approaches we shared in that post. In this one, we’ll share a simple few steps that can help you enhance your cocktail made right from your hotel room, with…
Mrs. WeeklyFlyer and I took a much needed date night on Friday to St. Cecilia in Atlanta. This happy hour photo was our charcuterue plate and a glass of Oban scotch (neat.) After a long week and no date nights in months, we dined and drank a much needed cocktail. We enjoyed every moment! From…
This week marks the very first time in history that a beer pong tournament was played onboard an International First Class flight. And we have the pictures to prove it. Some friend who had the ENTIRE first class cabin on an Air China 777ER in the Forbidden Pavilion First Class cabin from Houston to Beijing…
It’s no secret that I like to partake in a happy hour or two, especially when flying. I think it is best when you have a drink you enjoy and can save a few bucks while enjoying it. For me, there’s no question I like the Woodford Reserve offered onboard Delta’s flights. They’ve also “re” introduced…
When it’s time for a beer and a snack it’s always 5 o’clock in some lounge somewhere. On this night in the Sky Club it called for an ice cold Bud-heavy, spicy nuts and yogurt covered pretzels. I miss the days of self pour Blue Moon in special clubs. I miss the ice cold Heinekens…
One thing I always find interesting is the dilemma people go through at airport club lounge bars when they get a free drink. Do you tip for the free drink or act like you already paid for the service? On a recent trip to a Delta SkyClub, I was in line behind a guy who…
