Hey there,

Hope you had a nice, restful long weekend. (And speaking of the weekend: who thought inviting Karl Malone to the NBA's All-Star Weekend was a good idea?) If you're wondering why we can't have a four-day work week every week, join the club: according to a new report, the U.K.'s trial run of the practice went exceptionally well. And of course, more three-day weekends means more time to travel, so United's new family seating policy couldn't be coming at a better time.

Hotels We Love: Pontchartrain Hotel

Often referred to as a "Garden District gem," Pontchartrain Hotel is a legendary, full-service and luxuriously appointed property in the Big Easy. In fact, it's been voted #1 hotel in New Orleans by Condé Nast Traveler's Reader's Choice Awards several times over the past few years. Equal parts Southern and European, we think you'll be quite comfortable here.
