They did change some of the benefits, but for UA/CO you still get 3 bags if you are 1P(Premier executive)/Platinum or above, which requires flying 50,000 EQM's a year. Starting next year for the 100% RDM bonus you will have to be 1K(100,000 MQM's) 1P's will only get 50% I think. There was some...

If you have status with a US airline they give you a greater baggage allowance, on UA,CO, or Copa I get 3 70lbs bags for free even when traveling in coach. There used to be a way to trick Copa fares and take off around $560, but that closed about a month ago, just flew my last tricked fare on...

Yah london and Paris, and for that matter The northern European capitals are more expensive than BA for overall cost, though I wouldn't be surprised if a grocery store in Oslo was cheaper than BA. The Capital EU city I am in right now housing prices seem to start just below a €1.000 M2, which is...

Already happened, I am in a Europeen capital city right now, and the grocery store prices are about half of BA for the stuff I usually buy, never mind the selection of quality products here, and the abundance of imported goods from all over. Taxi fares here are 2 pesos a KM, apartment prices...

If what you are looking for is a US based PO-box that will forward mail to you here in Argentina, Then I would highly recommend the service I use: http://www.earthclassmail.com/ They scan the front and back of each piece of mail as it comes in, and you are able to view all your mail online, and...

I don't know what mean by "interesting information". If you wan't to learn how to find, and construct deals, then you need to do some research yourself, a good place to start would be reading the whole of this thread , and also learn how to use matrix.itasoftware.com If you do those two things...

I fly to the US, Europe or Asia about every 2 months, and have snagged quite a few of those mystical $600 flights and even $500 ones, though it takes a little specialized knowledge how to construct them.

Just a heads up for anyone flying tonight, The ash has returned and the airport is closed at the moment, supposedly there is going to be an update at 5:00 pm. My flight tonight UA846 has been delayed to 11:00am tomorrow morning.

Yes this works for non Citi cards, You will have to try a 2nd transaction to see for yourself if you can withdraw more than 4,000 a day, but I would highly suspect that the deciding factor is going to be your bank's own limits, I don't think Citi is going to care as they get paid for the use of...

I think the only problem you might have with that would come from your own Bank's end, if your daily limit is set at 2,000 euros shouldn't be a problem though it could possibly trigger a fraud alert on there end if it was deemed suspicious activity, though in that instance all you would have to...

Citibank has ATM's that operate on 2 different networks, the ubiquitous Bancelo(sp.) linked ones, and also another that runs on there own network. The second machine will allow you to withdraw 4,000 pesos in one transaction, and with one Transaction fee, you will need to chooses "other amount"...

My Friend got turned back again today at EZE, as his three time delayed flight finally got cancelled, and Aerolineas re-booked him departing next Monday, which won't work for him, so he is of to Mendoza and then Santiago by bus tonight to catch a flight out of there Thursday morning.

I have a friend visiting who was supposed to go to Iguazu on Friday but his flight got cancelled, so he cancelled that part of his trip, he was then supposed to fly home on Aerolineas last night, and they kept saying all yesterday that the flight was going to go out on time, so he went out to...

Despegar is the only local site I know of, though Priceline does have bidding options in Rio as well as Buenos Aires know days, and there can be some good had that way, you can look at betterbidding.com and biddingfortravel.com to see a list of recent winning bids for Priceline. There are also...

HD movies can be hit or miss. There is some speed loss when using a VPN connection(less so with a open vs pptp, though initially setting up a open is more complicated), and it is my understanding that HD on Netflix requires 3.5mb. There are also issues with getting the full speed of your...

I use Stongvpn which is $55 a year for a four city pptp account, it took trying a few different servers to get the necessary throughput for Netflix to stream successfully. The two main things that you will need to do this is a router that can be flashed with dd-wrt and a decent internet...

I am using a Roku box which is similar, but I have also added a 2nd router to my home network that has dd-wrt open source firmware installed on it which is connected to a VPN provider in the US, giving everything that connects to that router a US IP address. This allows me to use Netflix, and...

For just searching I use matrix.itasoftware.com because of its flexibility and power, but they do not sell tickets nor provide links to purchase tickets,you could also use Kayak to do a multicity search and then click through to the lowest provider to purchase.

Well just looking at your trip briefly there are a few reasons why the prices you are getting are that high, anytime you fly out of the UK there is about $200 in new taxes that weren't there a year ago, also the airfare from London to Buenos Aires with a 2 week stopover in the US are not the...
