We flew to the Grand Hyatt DFW & toured Grapevine, Texas.
Planespotting (+ porta-potty spottting), wine tasting, vintage train rides, #MeowWolf and more.

Ooh - new airport terminal!
Hollywood Burbank Airport (BUR) opens a new/replacement terminal. It's pretty darn swanky.
Here's my story about what's inside and out on The Points Guy site:

13 Gateside by TSAPrecheck airports were announced in September. Now the list is growing.
@PITairport - the first airport to offer a visitor pass program (MyPITpass) back in 2017 - is back in the fold. But for Gateside you'll need TSA Precheck to visit the airport.
Gateside by @tsa PreCheck® has arrived at PIT! Eligible TSA PreCheck® members can apply for access beyond security without a flight ticket to meet arriving passengers, accompany loved ones to the gate or enjoy terminal amenities.
