This dude loves taking pictures of himself. I don't need to see you in a seat, or bathroom, or how your pjs fit. Show me the product minus yourself. Also, didn't he talk about I don't drink for a good long while and now it's all Negron's and Champagne?

Because the alcohol is free ... FOMO.... or personal merit award

Because a face online causes exposure, we are assured it is not chatgpt + AI image generator + ghostwriter that does review trips

For a lot of his fans, the more "exposure" the better.

I do want to state my frustration with that Kyle Stewart writer.

His "articles," which are more appropriate to be comments rather than actual articles are terrible. The misinformation and inaccuracy and sheer lack of knowledge is something that should be spread.

While I did just post two long bit detailed enough comments debunking a lot of the crap, I am aware he has the habit of deleting comments critical of him. So that will probably be gone soon.

I hope no one takes those articles seriously. I really do.

Wouldn't it be easier to just not read his articles?

You see, bloggers are supposed to know more than us.

But no, Kyle Stewart is, not very smart to say it politely.

I was a little sick and tired of him so I countered his whole article in the comments section, and he did not respond very well. For example, he tried to counter my use of DoT fare data, which he didn't even read properly, using one off dummy searches.

=====
Valiantly ignoring the Kimpton acquisition complications /
defying any logical thought of IHG inexperience with upper/uber luxury due to portofolio's dedication to the modesty market/
IHG's corporate laggard mentality/
Conclusion is that he and other bloggers have absolutely no idea/insitu/experiences/tenure with IHG...
. so everything is cross examined with Hyatt/Marriott/Hilton and IHG is always deemed uninteresting as unlucrative.
Bit similair to why no major US-titan blog has never shown any interest in Accor or has covered Accor....
So Kyle at LALF & others Boarding Area bloggers are not the most wisest on the planet about IHG & Accor.....
They just cater to to the Hyatt, Hilton, Marriott addiction

The only three hotel chains with lifetime elite status.

You can't tell the byline before clicking on the article, at least from BoardingArea.

And yes, if there's anyway for me to avoid clicking on Kyle's articles, I would.

Sorry, but that is a self-inflicted wound. If one doesn't desire to read Kyle's articles there are ways that you can handle that if you take some personal agency

Care to share how when the preview does not show the author?

The banner of his latest blogpost (My Naked Jjimjilbang Experience in South Korea) is a creepy shirtless picture of himself, lol. For real, who takes a camera inside a spa to photograph themselves?!

He seems to be getting quite desperate to generate traffic to the website... at least that's how it comes off to me. Posts and pictures like that are totally unnecessary imo.
The blog has really been spiraling down with these low quality clickbait articles. These days its either a poorly researched article from Kyle, a rant about dogs, or stuff like this.

Not the first but the THIRD time he's come up with an excuse to post a shirtless selfie this year. Clearly he's quite full of himself.

Regarding the clickbait, he's even admitted (in the comments) that he posts nonsense for clicks.
