This week on Miles to Go, we break down several wild developments across the travel world alongside Julian Kheel of Points Path!
Topics include:
• Sweet biz-class deal to Africa—how we found it and why it was a no-brainer.
• American Airlines joins the touchless TSA PreCheck game—what it is and why you should care.
• Southwest's radical shift: introducing checked bag fees and removing same-day changes for elites.
• Solo traveler surcharge? A few airlines rolled out (then pulled back) pricing that charges solo travelers more than pairs—here's what's really happening.
• Listener Q&A: How much time do you actually need for an international connection? Plus: a lively NYC check-in, Spirit vs. JetBlue fares to Florida, Disney Cruise holiday discounts, Vegas hotel softness, and a quick update on Points Path.
