Brad Ramirez+FollowAirport Nap Room: Total Game Changer!Layovers at Atlanta’s airport just got a major upgrade. I tried out a private 'nap room' with my daughter, and honestly, it was almost perfect. We actually slept, had our own space, and dodged the usual airport chaos. The catch? It’s pricey unless you’ve got a Priority Pass (first hour free, then $40/hr). Would I do it again? Absolutely—with the discount. Full price? Eh, not so much. But for a real rest mid-travel, it’s a win! #Travel #TravelHacks #AirportLife10Share

Justin Dixon+FollowBusiness Class Surprises Across EuropeBooked a two-week Euro trip for my wife’s birthday and splurged on business class with Air France, KLM, and Virgin Atlantic.

Meh, not worth the upgrade. 3) Lie-flat seats on long flights = actual sleep. 4) Air France and Virgin Atlantic’s service blew us away. 5) The food was so good, I asked for seconds. 6) In-flight entertainment kept us busy for 28 hours.
