World’s Most Powerful Passports, US Ranks 6th – Miles for Family
I like to review this list every year or so. Not surprised that Singapore remains supreme and Russia has fallen some.
US Not Dropping Pre-Departure Covid Test Requirement – Running with Miles
The one-day-before-return-flight COVID test is inane. It has frustrated returning U.S. travelers since it was rolled out. Not surprised that nearly half of polled respondents say that dropping the test requirement would make them more likely to travel.
HOW DO YOU EAT HEALTHY WHEN YOU TRAVEL? – Live and Let’s Fly
I, too, find it hard to eat healthily while I travel. Too much good food, and sometimes more sitting (really depends on the trip). It usually doesn’t result in weight gain, but I feel like crap if I eat poorly. Trying to make a point of eating better while traveling, even if more expensive or inconvenient.

Check out the other recent roundup if you haven’t already. Feel free to comment here if you find other interesting points, miles, or travel stories!
BA had to cancel a bunch of flights because masks were no longer required and a bunch of crew members got sick. So how is that a good thing? And not requiring testing just allows more sick people to fly into the US. How is that a good thing? Just because people are tired of covid does not mean that the risks go away.
Newsflash: Covid is already in the US. Testing returning citizens is not going to materially affect the rate of Covid transmission here
But it will affect Covid transmission on flights. Although what would be better is for the airline to actually enforce flyers wearing their masks.
It’s idiocy to require Covid tests? Won’t read this blog again. Whatever.
