An airport lounge where you play video games for an hour? Yes, really. 🎮
Chris had a long layover at JFK and finally tried Gameway in Terminal 8. Swipe your @prioritypass, and you get:
🕹️ 1 hour on Xbox, PlayStation, or PC
🍿 A snack and a non-alcoholic drink, OR one alcoholic drink
⚡ Fast Wi-Fi and comfy gaming chairs
It’s a great way to escape the terminal on a long layover.
Heads up: not every Priority Pass membership includes Gameway. Check your card’s benefits before you go.
Gameway has locations in JFK Terminals 5 and 8, plus other airports around the U.S.

Your next layover could be a whole vacation. 👀✈️
Flying through Panama City? Instead of rushing to your connection, you could turn your stopover into a few days exploring Panama — from the Panama Canal to the city's food scene and historic neighborhoods.
Would you add a few extra days to your trip to explore somewhere new? 👇

Your Alaska Airlines boarding pass could get you FREE skiing this winter. 👀⛷️

With colder temperatures and shorter days just around the corner, now is the perfect time to lock in a winter getaway to a warmer, sunnier destination. Marriott has impressive resorts in some of the best sunny spots around the country — and this is just a small sampling of what's available at the high end of the spectrum.
When you've figured out a plan, remember to book direct and check the offers page to see if you can save money or add perks to your stay!

A lounge for gamers. A Ritz-Carlton on points. And the question every points collector eventually asks: Is business class actually worth the hassle? ✈️
This week, Chris finds a Priority Pass gaming lounge at JFK and books an $850-a-night Ritz-Carlton in Orlando for $0 out of pocket. Katie shares her Delta Premium Select flights to and from Athens, and why one row made a huge difference.
Then the big debate: when Japan award space is this hard to find, should you just book premium economy and be done with it?
Plus, a listener asks whether transferring Amex points to Hilton ever makes sense.
