RIP it seems...

Although still online until just VERY recently, but with no updates during the COVID pandemic, it seems they have finally pulled the plug. Now when you visit the address, it simply redirects you to flyertalk.com with no further message about what happened to the site. I guess it isn't surprising. However, it seems they would have at least posted a message stating why or "good bye" perhaps :-)

The problem with this, plus the demise of Million Mile Secrets, is that it sets a bad example to other companies who may have been thinking of paying heavily to acquire a miles and points blog :-)

Maybe my memory isn't as good as it once was.

Noticed the redirect today. Had been checking occasionally over the last couple years. Raising a glass to a decent site!
Cheers!
