Tips & Bits

 

Delta Waives Bag Fees
Delta announced last week that effective immediately it will waive excess bag fees for military personnel traveling on orders. The fee waivers apply to baggage quantity, weight and size, allowing active servicemen and women to travel with optimum flexibility. For more info, go to www.delta.com.

Platinum Card Reward
We always forget about this Platinum Card benefit but it's a good thing to remember when you're stuck at an airport for a while: If you have an American Express Platinum Card and book a flight with it, you automatically have access to more than 120 U.S. airport lounges. With a valid ticket for same day travel, Platinum Card members (and their spouses, children under 21 or up to two traveling companions) can walk into most lounges and get away from the hustle and bustle of the airport. For more info, go to www.americanexpress.com.

An Island Destination
Island Destinations is offering a four-night getaway for two to Casa Colonial Beach & Spa in the Dominican Republic, starting at $1,989. Included in the escape, valid through December 21, 2008, is an Ultimate Exclusive value-add offer: $100 air credit per person available when booking through Island Destinations.

The four-night escape also includes:

* Roundtrip transfers from Puerto Plata International Airport
