Happy Sunday! I hope this finds you staying warm after a bitter cold few weeks in so much of the country.
I narrowly dodged last week’s winter storm in the Deep South while traveling to Delta Air Lines headquarters in Atlanta, where I got a sneak peek of the carrier’s first jet with an all-new cabin look. It’s the first big Delta interior refresh in decades, and includes new memory foam cushions and cloth coverings for its Delta One suites.
Meanwhile, there was big news from top Delta competitor United Airlines, which started selling tickets for its first nonstop service to Mongolia — one of several splashy routes it’s planning for 2025.
TPG’s Zach Griff also covered some exciting updates about United’s plans to upgrade its inflight entertainment offerings in the coming years. Inflight technology just keeps getting better!
Something else went on sale last week, too — but a bit closer to home: You can now book the first Apartments by Marriott Bonvoy Resort in the U.S. With accommodations that can sleep over two dozen guests, this Orlando property is close to Central Florida’s top theme parks.
Speaking of hotels, a new year means a new up to $200 hotel credit to take advantage of if you carry The Platinum Card® from American Express. Need some inspiration on where to travel? Here are some fabulous properties where you’ll get a lot of bang for your statement credit.
Or, if you’re like me and still trying to figure out where you’ll travel for a spring getaway, here are some of the best places to travel in March.
