Miserable IHG Value

IHG has really gone down hill since they removed the price caps by brand on award nights. For 30,000 points (enough for a free night or two), they'll pay the $85 Pre Check fee. I don't recommend paying that fee even with money because for an extra $15, you can get PreCheck and Global Entry.

The 10 wide coach seating on domestic 777's and 777-300ER's has ruined the onboard experience for me. Way to suck the fun out of flying. Again.

United Wants New 767's?

United floated the idea of buying new 767's even though the aircraft is cargo and USAF tanker only now. I feel they this may help them get a deal on A330's or 787's.
