Motley Fool

If I were a rapper, I’d start a song with…

“I’m takin’ chumps to school like Mr. T pities the fool.”

(The only thing I’m actually taking to school right now is a chicken caesar salad)

Well, it’s suddenly very clear that I should never attempt to rhyme again. So…

Thanks to reader Mike for sharing this Motley Fool deal. Looks like either:

Check the terms but, according to Mike, this can be done for $19 and cancelled after 45 days. If you’re not in a rush, the bonuses seem to fluctuate. Apparently, American was recently up to 7,400 miles. Keep an eye on the links if interested.

Requests

Without getting emotional (there will be time for that), I should mention a certain logistical fact…

We’re getting down to the last few months.

So, if there are any posts you’d like to see me write…please let me know soon.

In short: last call for requests.

Just wanted to slip that quick reminder in.

Have a great weekend, nerds!

One Of Each

Thumbs Up:
For those still using Rocketmiles, you now have the option of earning American Express Membership Rewards points there. Not for everyone, but it will come in handy for some of you.

Thumbs Down:
After a glorious 3 weeks of improved suckage, the British Airways website is back to driving people insane again. Multiple readers are reporting similar nonsense as the stuff I mentioned in May. Phone support there is…questionable.

Sale Stuff

The following events will happen every week (most likely for the rest of my life):

  • Someone will warn me not to touch a hot dish…within 30 seconds, I’ll be icing my finger.
  • I’ll ask a Target employee for help…before realizing it’s a customer in a red shirt.
  • Someone will claim Lebron is better than Michael Jordan. I’ll react as if a piano just fell on my head.
  • A waiter will say, “Enjoy your meal.” I’ll respond with, “You too!” and then silently mutter into my soup.
  • And, of course, Southwest will have a sale…

This week’s is here. Plus other links from Alaska, JetBlue, and Frontier.

Frontier Status

Round-trip flights required to earn Frontier status?
Two.

People who ever asked, “Hey MileNerd, how do I get Frontier status?”
Zero.
