The Little Things In Life

One of the things that makes me SO happy is being a GOLD member with American Airlines. I am not sure how many miles I need to get it, or what the other benefits are, but the main reason why I love it SO MUCH is because I am ALWAYS in group one, no matter what seat I have - back of plane, middle, or front, I'm always in group one.

I just came back from Hawaii for work and I guess it helped me. I got this in via email today:

Dear Melinda Hinojosa,
