Ran into the Mexican car insurance scam with Budget in Merida, Mexico 🇲🇽
Base rate was $18 USD a day, but if you didn't get the CDW costing minimum $85 USD a day, I had to put down a deposit of 330,000 MXN / $16,000 USD which obviously got rejected by all my credit cards.
Pleasantly surprised by Cathay Pacific's service for oneworld emerald customers even in economy. Middle seat was automatically blocked off, multiple FAs came by to greet me, was given a bottle of water and a blanket / pillow

Since I didn’t bring a laptop on this trip, and it’s hard to type on my phone, I’m going to take a page out of Lucky’s (onemileatatime) book and let my photos do the talking. Enjoy! I certainly did 😉
Amuse bouche of smoked duck and blackberry plus some Krug
Holy mother of pearl (spoon)! Caviar on a plane!
How they got sea bass to taste so good on a plane I’ll never know…
