My (Second) Worst Travel Day of the Year
I got cocky. On January 5, 2016, Mrs. Jeffsetter and I had a crappy day of travel from Costa Rica to Peru. We left at 9 AM and arrived at our destination at about 6 AM the next day. Flights in the middle of the night, and long layovers in lounges. My drone got impounded and I left my camera on the airplane and nearly lost it. That day sucked. I told Mrs. Jeffsetter to … [Read more...] about My (Second) Worst Travel Day of the Year
5 Observations From Our Trip to the Cook Islands
Jeff is at it again, forcing me to blog. My life is sooo hard. Today I introduce Flashback Friday, which offers my perspective on a previous trip taken by the Jeffsetters. Why?

14 Signs You’re Obsessed With Earning Points and Miles
This morning I was setting up a new online account with a credit card provider and I had the biggest sense of deja vu. It occurred to me that I have done this many times before as I used my 10-key to pound in my bank routing number in about 0.002 seconds. Many of you are in the same boat - you are proudly obsessed with earning points and miles! While obsession can become a … [Read more...] about 14 Signs You’re Obsessed With Earning Points and Miles

A Mistake So Good I’m Afraid to Post About It
Having followed travel bloggers for a few years now, I know that they are generally the first people to post when something bad happens to them (i.e. they try to redeem a deal and it doesn't work, bad service, etc.), yet they will profusely give compliments when they receive great service. They will usually "call out" an airline when a great deal or mistake fare is canceled, … [Read more...] about A Mistake So Good I’m Afraid to Post About It
