Where's Johnny Jet?

Greetings from South Florida! If you're following me on social, you know my dad, my wife and I had a great trip to Las Vegas. We flew back to LA for a few days and then Natalie and I flew to Miami so we could attend SeaTrade Cruise Global 2016.

The Ritz-Carlton, South Beach
Although the conference is in Fort Lauderdale, we opted to stay in Miami at the plush Ritz-Carlton, South Beach. It’s one of my favorite (if not my favorite) Miami hotels as it doesn’t have a nightclub and it’s right on the beach and Lincoln Road so there are plenty of restaurants, shops and opportunities for people-watching. Families love it, too, since it’s kid-friendly (have you ever seen a separate check-in for kids?). Oh, and if you can gain access to their club room, don’t miss out on their breakfasts, evening desserts and of course cookies. Yowza!
 
Next up...
Natalie and I aren’t in Miami much longer as we’re about to jump on a flight to…well, you'll just have to wait until next week or follow us on social. Here are our handles:

35,000 bonus points—available until March 30!
As I mentioned last week: If you don’t yet have the Starwood Preferred Guest Amex card, new Card Members are eligible to receive the highest bonus ever offered with this card: 35,000 Starpoints! This card (which I have and use all the time) is already pretty much every frequent traveler's and points junkie’s favorite rewards card. Here’s more on the offer (only available until March 30), the card and how you can grab it now.

Win a trip for two to Hawaii!
Our latest JohnnyJet.com contest is halfway through! Enter here for a chance to win 140,000 HawaiianMiles (enough for two roundtrip tickets between Hawaii and any one of Hawaiian Airlines' North American gateway cities) plus a two-night stay for two at Four Seasons Resort O’ahu at Ko Olina.

Looking for cool travel gear?
Be sure to check out our sponsor’s clothing line! I’m sure you (or your favorite traveler) will love their multiple hidden pockets, which not only keep valuables safe but can also act as extra carry-ons! I'm a huge fan and use their products every time I travel. Here’s the link to their innovative website.
