News and notes from around the interweb:
- Informed guesses on when Southwest will start service to the new cities they’ve announced
- 12 minute Covid tests are being rolled out to UK pharmacies scale that, and if countries would accept the test, we could start flying the world again.
- Video review of the Singapore Airlines Airbus A380 restaurant experience.
- American Airlines talks about how their Charlotte and Dallas Fort-Worth hubs are operating close to how things were before Covid, driving the airline’s connectivity. A full Charlotte airport doesn’t have the physical capacity to make much distancing possible though.
Thank you @CLTAirport, @charlottenc @FAANews @AmericanAir for not enforcing the mask mandate. It was fun hearing people cough, that wet phlegmy gagging cough.@CDCgov @CDC_eHealth @COVID19Tracking @CovidActNow I cannot figure out why America can’t control Covid-19 pic.twitter.com/AAERHZ7nbM

“…I cannot figure out why America can’t control Covid-19…” from People Watcher.
And I cannot understand why half this country thinks you can control a virus. It’s not like the virus is spreading worse throughout other parts of the world…. oh wait.. . must be POTUS’s fault too….
not targeted for a 20k point bonus on 3 cards 🙁
My offer is “Get 1,000 bonus Marriott Bonvoy points after using your enrolled Card to spend $500+ in one or more eligible transactions, up to 3 times “. A pittance compared to your offer.
No offer on my Marriott AmEx 🙁
Ah my offer was 4K Bonvoy for every $2.5K in spend…
No offer.
My offer is the worse. Put $12K on my Bonvoy Amex and receive 15,000 Bonvoy points up to three times.
