Hello from the UAE! I'm in the middle of a trip to Lebanon and the UAE. While Lebanon was awesome, the UAE has been a comedy of errors on the hotel front, as I'll share in a separate post shortly. It has been a fun trip, but to be honest at this point I'm just excited to get home and see my dog. I really am a homebody nowadays.
On the points & travel front, this week Alaska announced their best bonus of the year on purchased miles, Hyatt launched a promotion for MGM stays, changes to Starbucks Rewards kicked in, Air Senegal leased an A380 from Hi Fly, LifeMiles modified award costs on some domestic US flights, and more.
