Greetings from the W Las Vegas (it’s still really the Delano as they have updated nothing aside from sticking a W on the side of the building). I’m here for the weekend and will report back. In travel news this week, we saw Spirit reject another offer from Frontier, multiple airlines added new routes, Delta rolls out custom luggage tags, Allegiant looks to offload its resort, another Amex lounge has issues with the board of health, and more. Happy Valentine’s Day and enjoy the long weekend.
