Hi members!
Our guide to intelligent travel
I hope you’ve enjoyed our travel field guide this week. In case you missed anything, we covered:
- Everything you need to know about miles and points
- When to visit various cities around the world for the best hotel deals
- How to choose between all the trusted-traveler programs available in the US
- The best way to pack for any occasion, anywhere (and the five things you should never unpack)
- How to get local currency when abroad, and the best way to use your credit card internationally
Conference call on CBD today
We’re closing out the week with a belated conference call. Busy at last week’s Cannes Lions festival, Jenni Avins makes a triumphant return to the conference-call scene with a discussion about her recent field guide on CBD. We’ll be talking to Jenni today at 11 am EDT/4 pm BST. You can join the videoconference here, or dial one of these numbers to join the call over your phone.
USA – 866 226 4650
UK – 0800 014 8469
In both cases, the meeting code is 722 994 440.
If you can’t make this conference call, or happen to have missed a previous call, we’ve got you covered. We record all of our member-exclusive conference calls so you can listen at your convenience. Just go here to access them all.
Next week: Slack, Oxy, and Huawei
We’ll be serving up a variety of new things next week, including an examination of Huawei, a profile of Occidental Petroleum’s CEO (who intends to get Oxy carbon neutral), Vicki Hollub; a close look at Slack founder and CEO Stewart Butterfield; and a new episode of our members-only video series Because China. This week, we look at how China has virtually taken over Brazil’s soybean production.
We’d love to hear from you. Email us at members@qz.com with ideas, suggestions, opinions, and questions.
Here’s to a relaxing weekend,
