Q&A WITH AOIFE O’RIORDAN, ASSOCIATE EDITOR
As the holidays approach and many of us plan on spending time with family, what are you most excited about for the holidays this year?
Q&A TIME
In our November 2021 issue we asked: With 2021 coming to a close, we’d love to know your favorite place you’ve traveled to this year; do you have any trips booked for 2022? A few readers wrote in:
Yes, we have several trips planned for 2022, including our first international journey since January 2020, as well as our first cruise since the pandemic. We’re visiting Portugal and Spain in March 2022, then heading to London, Paris and Brussels in July. Our Alaska cruise will depart in September 2022, and we also have other domestic trips planned to Lake Tahoe; Miami; Las Vegas; and Portland, Oregon. Can’t wait to get back to it!
ELLIS PALMER, VIA EMAIL
I’m excited to say I recently booked my first POST-COVID business trip to see clients after the holidays in early January, followed by a convention in March and another round of client visits in April. I’ve traveled for leisure since the pandemic and plan to do my fair share of that as well in 2022, but our company recently decided it’s time to return to business travel, and I happily started planning!
CAROLYN FIELDS, VIA EMAIL
I am starting to plan my 2022 travel schedule; in the beginning of 2021 I planned to be away every other month. And in 2022, and especially now that I’ve received my Pfizer booster shot, I’m planning to return to my 2019-level travel, which included a long weekend trip once every month and two international trips. Now to open my latest copy of Global Traveler for some inspiration as I start planning.
WILSON MANN, VIA EMAIL CHASE, HYATT LAUNCH FIRST WORLD OF HYATT BUSINESS CREDIT CARD
In the Oct. 6 issue of eflyerusa, we told readers about the new World of Hyatt Business Credit Card. The adaptive rewards accelerator allows cardmembers to earn two bonus points per $1 spent for their top three of eight spend categories each calendar quarter through Dec. 31, 2022, among many other benefits. We asked: Are you planning to sign up for the World of Hyatt Business Credit Card? One reader says,”yes.”
I am a small business owner and a loyal Hyatt customer, so when I heard about this card option, I knew it was for me! I signed up immediately, and we’re already thrilled with the many benefits of the credit card.
