Traveling with family for vacation -- splurge on a very nice hotel with more amenities.

Food when I am on business -- healthy and at a decent price. NEVER EVER MCDonalds or fast food unless it is unavoidable.

Food with family -- usually good healthy food and more variety needed. No fast food even with kids unless we are really tired of the local stuff.

Flying on business -- Paid intl J and upgrade from Y domestic.
Flying with family -- usually J or F with mile.
Awesome! I was gonna write "Hookers & blow", but didn't think that would be received very well. So I wrote "spa services".

Just kidding, of course. I do enjoy resort-level spa services if I can work them in during my travels. Sometimes just the back and neck massage places at the airport can be great.
