News and notes from around the interweb:

  • I can’t believe we are doing this again. Avoid taking JetBlue, Air Canada, and a few other carriers to JFK. To get to the parking lot at the Howard Beach station, passengers have to walk to the AirTrain (with luggage!), take the green line train to Howard Beach and exit towards Long Term Parking. Since the amount of time to get there is going to vary quite a lot, many will wait until after the schlepp to request their ride, further adding to the time it takes to get out of JFK.
  • O’Hare airport: is there any circumstance under which you would?
  • Far be it for me to criticize typos! Sort of reminds me of this, also on American.

  • The Denver airport paid $14.5M for a glowing sign. A decade later, it’s not looking great “Malfunctioning lights, cheap-looking screens and disappointing ad sales.” Is there anything about this airport that wasn’t a white elephant from the start?
  • Qantas elite status changes letting members earn up to 140 Status Credits per year from partner spend, introducing Status Credit rollover up to 50% of excess credits (capped at 100/350/500 for Silver/Gold/Platinum) and retiring green tier. Starting 2027 they have a single higher qualification threshold (no more discount for existing elites requalifying), and they’re adding Platinum years for Lifetime Gold continuing to earn status credits. Also they have a new award search tool.
  • New Bilt Palladium Card (see rates and fees) offer for using card on food apps and partner restaurants.
