Weekly Review: May 02, 2026

I hope everyone is having a nice weekend so far! I'm wrapping up my current trip today (which has been far too long, but also allowed me to spend some time with my dad), so I'll be publishing my trip report this coming week, and I have a lot of thoughts and experiences to share.

On the points & travel front, the biggest story of the week was Spirit's liquidation, and my thoughts are with Spirit's employees. I hope that they all find jobs elsewhere ASAP, as the airline had some great people. Other than that, we've seen some great new credit card offers, United rolled out Polaris business class on domestic flights, United's new 787 had some maintenance issues, and more.

With that out of the way, here's a recap of this week on the blog:
