Welcome New York Times Readers
January 27, 2013
I know there are some people who have wandered over since reading about the site in the New York Times.
From my experience, some of you will mistakenly conclude that traveling with miles is too difficult for you and will miss out on the way all of us fly for pennies around the world in First Class.
