T

Friends,

Great week on the blog, so as always thank you for flying with me. A quick ask on this wonderful Sunday: will you invite one friend to subscribe to the newsletter here?

Think of this as kind of a “friends fly free” situation (but where your ticket also cost nothing). And to be sure: it is kind and great to invite your friends. The best news? Everyone is welcome — so think spouse, roommate, co-worker, or even that casual acquaintance you just made waiting for coffee.

Because nothings says “you are a champion” to a new or old friend like an invitation to join an email newsletter about travel.

Okay, that is all for now. Invite your friends by forwarding them this email and inviting them to subscribe by clicking here. Alternatively, text them the link to this page.

Travel is better together; so is this newsletter.

And you are the hero of the story.

Fly well.
