But you have to know how to travel to make the travel more enjoyable. Get some status with the airline and hotel so that you can get upgrades. With Marriott we get the free breakfast for the whole family, and my kids look forward to it. At the airports I have lounge access so that is where we go to relax and eat. Traveling is so much more enjoyable when you get lounge access and hotel upgrades to rooms that give you more space.
