FLY – Save yourself the trouble during the holidays, work remote!
There is no question that holiday travel can be tedious, expensive, and chaotic . Starting next week, expect the volume at airports to increase significantly and airfare to increase as well. I just purchased a ticket from Boston to Cincinnati for the week before… Continue Reading “FLY – Save yourself the trouble during the holidays, work remote!”
FLY – Is it Worth Buying Extra Legroom?
This week I was forced to fly to lovely Charlotte, NC on not so lovely US AIR (I call it US SCARE…I prefer not to land on rivers). When doing my seat selection online I noticed all the seats up front has different prices… Continue Reading “FLY – Is it Worth Buying Extra Legroom?”

When traveling, it seems I would forget my head if it wasn’t tied on!
Last week I was in lovely Mobile, AL for a couple days to visit a client and some consultants. I had to switch hotels the second night to be closer to the airport in the morning.

FLY – PAN AM, a true flying experience…on tv

FLY – Don’t always count on Elite or First Class Lines
We all hate security lines. I actually teach new hires how to tackle these lines, using the movie “Up in the Air” as a direct reference (if you haven’t seen this movie, rent it now). One thing that I used to depend on is… Continue Reading “FLY – Don’t always count on Elite or First Class Lines”
Drive – Should I Fly or Drive?
How many miles are you willing to drive? Sometimes a 4-6 hour drive is faster than flying. I just wrapped up a trip to Mobile, Alabama this week for work followed with a weekend in New Orleans. Originally the trip had me stopping in… Continue Reading “Drive – Should I Fly or Drive?”
FLY – Hurrican Irene, Rescheduling Flights, Hotels, and Client Events
Guess there isn’t anything we can do about it. My flight was scheduled for Monday morning, well after the storm will pass through Boston. Delta made the decision to cancel my flight and reschedule me for a Tuesday morning flight. I guess if you… Continue Reading “FLY – Hurrican Irene, Rescheduling Flights, Hotels, and Client Events”
FLY – 30 minute connections…maybe not at the Detroit Airport
You would think after over 6 years in the air I would have this connection thing down. I’ve seen the gradual reduction of direct flight options and am almost forced to take connections no matter where I go. I hate sitting at an airport… Continue Reading “FLY – 30 minute connections…maybe not at the Detroit Airport”
