Kolek planning to go pro
Are sports bars a thing in Malaysia? Should I plan on getting a VPN? Trying to plan a way to watch the Maui invitational games next week.
I am the old guy in the room, but I have followed a lot of MU basketball and Packer games via game cast on ESPN. I guess better than when I would call an 800 number non stop to get updates.
The 800 number was a lifesaver
Where will you be? Kuala Lampur? - I can't really help with KL.I was in George Town (Penang) & Johor (over the border from Singapore) the week before left. Just enjoy the kopi (coffee) in Malaysia. They were bog on 4 varieties; Kopi-B & Kopi-C, etc.
If you have flown that many miles, why the hell are you in a middle seat? You certainly have some level of permanent status on a carrier. I can understand coach, but there is never an excuse for a middle seat short of buying a flight the day of or switching in an emergency. I have my own opinions on the truly affluent flying coach on business trips, mostly around their value of their own time and comfort, but I don’t need to insult anyone so I’ll keep it to myself. Though I will say, if you truly have lots of disposable income that you can splurge and you’re regularly flying long haul in economy, you’re doing yourself a disservice health wise over the long run, IMO
I’m younger but I remember in the mid 2000s texting an ESPN number and getting score updates before my first smartphone

We are friends with a wealthy entrepreneur whose last name most of you would recognize. He travels on business as if it is his own money - because it is. He is extremely generous with his friends and his charitable interests, but otherwise, doesn't spend a lot of money on things he considers frivolous.Recently, he told us that he was on a plane when the pilot came on over the intercom to congratulate him by name for reaching his 3 millionth mile on their loyalty program. The flight attendants were looking around for him in first class. He was back in coach - in a middle seat.
We’re leaving for Australia on Saturday, United had a crazy offer over the summer (40k one way), so we booked with miles.The flight from SFO to Brisbane is maybe 30% full. Since I booked with miles, I don’t think I have any chance of us being upgraded to Polaris. However, with economy plus and economy having tons of empty rows, we’re hoping to spread out and each one of us (five total), takes a row to ourselves. I don’t think I’ve ever slept on a row of three seats, should be interesting.
We are doing a trip next year where we fly to Sydney, take a cruise up the Great Barrier Reef, fly to Melbourne, stay a few days, fly to Singapore, and then take transpacific cruise to LA, hitting Vietnam, Malaysia, Guam, and Hawaii on the way back, and then flying to Las Vegas. All in, I think we are spending about $1000 each for airfare.Last night, we watched a YouTube video of a guy who flew around the world in 80 hours, all on budget airlines. He used all of the airlines we did for our trip.
. I guess better than when I would call an 800 number non stop to get updates.
When does the article come out on you guys living aboard cruise ships permanently? Which budget airline are you using to get to Asia? The trans pac cruise sounds amazing.
