This is something I have been advocating for more than a decade. Instead of the Thursday night, “consultants special” jammed airport home, work from the hotel on Friday paying on points or your own dime and stay through the weekend.
Interestingly, more experienced business travelers have moved away from traditional loyalty programs and become “free agents” more often as the changes to the programs have disaffected some of the most frequent travelers. But new travelers who have found these programs for the first time are jumping in with two feet. Maybe they are right.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on Live and Let's Fly.
