Rapid Travel Chai

On my mind: the weather in New York reached the 60s just as Canada Goose filed for IPO. Where will the logo go if they make tank tops?

Hacks:

• Citi Costco Credit Card (2017.2 Update: Historical High Offer!). I am converting from an existing Citi card, shutting me out of this bonus.
• Share Mlife status AND Hyatt Platinum with your spouse (or roommate!) I tried calling and they did insist on an in-person casino visit.
• Not easy to make a case for the new Cathay Pacific credit card, here’s a detailed look.

Travels:

• Tiffany’s new favorite trip planning tool.
• The blogger jailed for visiting a country that ‘doesn’t exist’.
• Why do airlines serve pre-arrival breakfast on long hauls? Especially when they are so lame.

Events:

• A painstaking mission to save Atlanta’s colossal Civil War painting.
• Your complete guide to choosing an unlimited data plan (via TBB).
• Mosul: the biggest battle anywhere on the planet.

Ideas:

• Things I learned covering the Westminster dog show. Each year I mean to go, forget, then only remember when it is over.
• The Mark Zuckerberg manifesto: great for Facebook, bad for journalism.
• Reflecting on one very, very strange year at Uber.
