Finally got to pick up my new glasses and shirt (they’ve been at my mailbox for a few weeks but with the shutdown leading to flight chaos, I delayed my trip to get them) on this #FCF

When you find yourself 1 night short from AA Gold, getting a night credit and Thanksgiving Breakfast for $40 is reasonable. On track to finish the year with AA Gold, Frontier Gold, and JetBlue Mosaic 1. With only Frontier earned the normal way since I hit 25 destinations before hitting 50 Tiles.

Had to burn $65 breakfast credit solo (burning my Amex FHR $300 credit) so I ordered in room dining with takeout containers so I can take the baked goods with me. And for lunch I will be finishing my $100 dining credit off.

Most swag bottles aren’t worth keeping. However a refillable Evian bottle is just so pretentious that I love it.

Miami had the life size LEGO cars, but Vegas has the LEGO Brick Stop building station. The brand activation that everyone has genuine fun at instead of just getting cool pics/videos or swag

So I know a lot of us F1 fans like to shit on the random MGK appearances he makes at races, but the man is absolutely insane and I respect that. Climbing the stage structure in the rain last night during his set was impressive.

The American Express strategy session was definitely a fun experience. Panel discussion with a bunch of troublemakers around F1 and then photo with the panel after. Sadly we couldn’t ask if Cadillac will allow for the BotAss calendar to return.

American Express taking standard event merchandise hat and turning it into an opportunity to taunt all of the platinum and Centurion card holders that couldn’t get into the experience. Hat for the special event which is a nice upgrade from the regular experience luggage tags.

It helps that Vegas is the gayest (complimentary) race on the calendar. And actually just met the driver every gay wants a calendar from.

While the American Express trackside lounge is a somewhat underwhelming experience, it did provide good views.

Did the 1850 experience at Aria in Vegas, and definitely an interesting experience. Very nice, and a little gift at the end that will taunt people who can’t get in since the pop up runs through F1, AWS re:invent, and National Finals Rodeo.
