and now

- Ben's "close friend" (I think we all know what friend really means now)

Afternoon tea has now been covered for a 4th time! What's next? A review from a Nightline reporter Ben takes along with him on his next Emirates journey? Nothing like being able to buy your friend the miles necessary for a first class flight, hotel, and $200 lunch and put it down as a business expense.

Here's a real "travel hack":
1) Find a travel blogger
2) Makes friends with them
3) Ask them to purchase miles for you and give you a discount on what they paid as they can claim it as a business expense
4) If you are lazy ask them to book the trip with said miles
4) Take photos during your trip
5) Sit down and write for an hour and send blogger a trip report
Maybe someone is getting value from the repetitive reviews...not sure who other than new readers...then again OMAAT has a rabidly loyal core of fanboys. However I suspect most of the fanboys aren't actually going to be flying the 1st class apartment anyway.
