I have the honor of flying Flagship Valor today, Independence Day. A tribute to those who have earned the Medal of Honor, the United States military’s highest award for valor. #AmericanAir

You have to laugh. I don’t think my kids would know what these are! Also… how old is this jet?!

I’m not crazy about the wake-up time required to enjoy this sight, but it really was worth it. #Chicago

3rd passenger in two days just asked me for a trading card. What am I missing?

30 million Americans have airline credit cards. Last year, 15 million Americans booked air travel with reward points. But that would all end if the #CreditCardCompetitionAct passes. Tell Congress to #ProtectOurPoints. https://t.co/7if5JJOmY8

@AirlineFlyer @lufthansa @FlySWISS Interesting. I’ve flown RDU LHR (subsidized by big pharma) many times. But RDU FRA?

Ran across this today and feel it has some recent relevance.
