Shoot, he should really just have Starwood and Amex sponsor every one of his stays ...
I attended an event last Monday hosted by Delta and one on Tuesday hosted by Gogo. Lots of cool stuff to see and explore like being outside atop the ATL Terminal A control tower or in the basement with the baggage handling. Also got to chat with Jeff Robertson and Richard Anderson. Very interesting day, indeed. |

You can add The Points Guy to the list:
http://youtu.be/rHaLCmrS7r8 I had the opportunity to team up with SPG and American Express to film a video around Miami with TPG canine mascot Miles about why I love the city and also some tips on Maximizing your SPG points- check it out here: Shoot, he should really just have Starwood and Amex sponsor every one of his stays that he reviews knowing that his photo editing skills is limited to Instagram filters and blurry iPhone photos: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/exter...rite-offs.html I don't think I can recall any recent negative reviews he's posted of a Starwood property? :eek: |

As my wife put it as she looked at that video over my shoulder just now: "That is the cheesiest thing I have ever seen in my life."
:eek: "Now this is a million-Starpoint view!" "This massage is heaven and it hasn't even started, so I'll see you on the flip-side" |
I loved this portion right here...
http://puu.sh/9Fnh8/538b91dc0b.png LOL enough editing so you know it's a SPG card. Also at the end where it features one of the actors for "the promotion"... I mean, the shop owner. |
targeting people with lots of awards - is the award worth it (vs comparables)
not doing paid premium air/hotel - seems to fit with professional travel writers (not upscale travel bloggers) where they do not think premium air/hotel is worth paying their own money for |
Extra Pack of Peanuts:
A Jewel In Montmartre- The Best Place to Stay in Paris "My accommodations in Paris were complimentary, courtesy of GowithOh. As always, all opinions expressed in this post are my own." He states that his accommodations were complimentary, but I am wondering if he was paid for this as well as he uses professional photos from GowithOh. "And most importantly, it comes with a price tag that won’t bust your budget (a rarity in Paris). We’ve stayed in four different places in Paris over the last two months, including the $1,000/night Park Hyatt Vendome and the $400+/night Hilton Opera and this was by far our favorite." There are no available dates for this particular flat, but the website lists the price as "from $62". Even it were $200 a night he is suggesting that this beats out a $400 and $1000 a night hotel. Seems the website is a Airbnb knockoff. IMO this review is overly biased. |
