    Travel Tuesday: Aparthotel Adagio Serris (Hipark) Hotel Review

    It’s now been a couple of years since I started doing these Travel Tuesday columns, which have now included a number of hotel reviews. Naturally, as a result, when I stay at hotels these days, I know pretty much from the jump that I’ll be writing a review about it. Yet, I realized that there’s…

    Travel Tuesday: Arro App Review – Hailing an NYC Cab with My Phone

    Having been born in New Jersey and growing up loving New York City, I occasionally like to fancy myself as someone well in the know when it comes to Manhattan. Alas, this illusion falls apart pretty quickly when I’m actually there. For example, not only can I not navigate the subway in fewer than three…

    Travel Tuesday: Paris Las Vegas Hotel Room Review

    So far this year, I’ve done far more traveling than I anticipated. Because of that, I nearly forgot about one of the entries for my Las Vegas Content Bonanza™. This past January, before going to real Paris, my wife and I spent five nights at the Paris Hotel and Casino in Sin City. Thus, I’m…

    Travel Tuesday: Hilton Orlando Buena Vista Palace Hotel Review (Walt Disney World)

    A couple of weeks ago, I shared a look at my Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser adventure. But, before that unique (and pricey) experience, my wife and I spent three nights in more conventional accommodations, booking a stay at the Hilton Orlando Buena Vista Palace. Located in the Disney Springs Area of Walt Disney World, the…

    Travel Tuesday: Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser Hotel Review

    Well, it finally happened. Months after my friends and I booked our stay aboard the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser at Walt Disney World, our adventure took place last week. Having returned to Earth, I have a lot of thoughts on this pricey and unique experience — but I thought I’d start by sharing a review…

  • Travel Tuesday: Hotel New York – The Art of Marvel Hotel Review

    Travel Tuesday: Hotel New York – The Art of Marvel Hotel Review

    For years, my wife and I have been big fans of Marvel and specifically the Marvel Cinematic Universe. More recently, we’ve also come to love Disneyland Paris, with the resort ranking among our favorite Disney Parks in the world (we even have annual passes for this resort instead of the domestic ones). That’s why we’ve…

    Travel Tuesday: InCharge Cables Review — Tech Minimalism for Travel

    Over the years that my wife and I have been traveling together, a funny thing has happened. While we’ve managed to become incredibly efficient when it comes to packing clothes, toiletries, and the like, the amount of tech we now need to bring on every trip only seems to grow. Granted, part of this is…

  • Travel Tuesday: Alaska Airlines Has a New “Flight Pass” Subscription Option

    Travel Tuesday: Alaska Airlines Has a New “Flight Pass” Subscription Option

    Being a big Disney fan, I’m quite familiar with the concept of an Annual Pass. Indeed, at several times in my life, I’ve made strong use of such offerings, lowering the price per visit each time I showed up at the gates, while still helping Disney to make use of unused capacity. So what if…

    Travel Tuesday: Using an International Power Converter vs. Power Adapter

    Traveling internationally can often present a number of changes and challenges — some of which you might not think of off the bat. Sure, we all know that visiting other parts of the world may mean a language barrier, the need for a different type of currency (although credit cards are starting to make that…

    Travel Tuesday: Mirage Resort King Room Hotel Review

    Earlier this month, I had the chance to check out the 2022 CES convention… so you know what that means: it’s time for another installment of my Las Vegas Content Bonanza™. Today’s entry is actually a tad different as the situation is rather unique. See, rather than checking out a hotel because they have something…

    Travel Tuesday: Soarigami Review — A Novelty That’s Pretty Genius

    Two years ago — in early 2020 — I bought a product I was hoping to get a lot of use of on all of the airplanes I figured I’d be hopping on. At this point, I don’t even really remember how I discovered it, but its inclusion on my list of “5 Interesting Travel Products…

"Smart Brevity" Book Review — Can it Help Improve Your Writing?
I'm not 100% sure when it was that I first heard about the site Axios. Regardless, these days, I'm subscribed to several of their newsletters, regularly visit their website, and may or may not have already taken some inspiration from them when revamping the news style of the Disney site I write for. For those...
Solis is Launching Yet Another New Global WiFi Hotspot Model
Back in 2019, I purchased my first Solis (then known as Skyroam Solis) international hotspot device. Since then, though, the company has rolled out a number of new models — and that pace has really hastened over the past couple of years. That continued this month as preorders for their new Solis Tag device opened....

Everything You Need to Know About Flying Allegiant Air in 2026
Updated on February 3, 2026 When my wife and I moved to Springfield, Missouri more than a decade ago, one of the selling points (or at least what kept it in the running) was that there was a nearby airport that served a decent number of destinations.

Travel Tuesday: Kimpton Rowan Palm Springs Hotel Review
A few weeks ago, I attended my fifth in-person FinCon — which was hosted in Palm Springs, California, this year. And since FinCon is all about personal finance, I thought it was only appropriate that I simultaneously treat myself to a bit of luxury while leveraging available tools to keep costs down. What I found...
Our Firsthand Experience with Verizon Shine (So Far)
Back in June, Verizon launched a new program with the punny moniker "Verizon Shine." Somewhat similar to the popular T-Mobile Tuesdays, Verizon Shine features a variety of special offers from partner brands — except that these come in the form of daily drops instead of weekly. And while the telecom came out of the gate...

Travel Tuesday: Twelve South AirFly SE Review - Airplane Seatback Bluetooth Solution
A few months ago, I had a chance to fly on a plane that had only been in service for two months.

This means that, rather than using bad-sounding and occasionally painful...
