Richard notches his first flight out of Toronto's Billy Bishop Airport, one of the truly unique airports in the world. The airport sits on an island next to downtown. It can be reached by a very short ferry boat ride or a quick walk via underground tunnel.

He also breaks down his first foray into medical tourism, including all the details on how to travel to Canada and get a prescription filled.

Now that Alaska and Hawaiian Airlines have solidified their merger, there are a number of questions that go along with the details. We're breaking down all of them, including whether your Alaska and Hawaiian miles are safe from a "devaluation" (cue Jeremiah's noise machine). https://w
