It’s fascinating to watch the development of in-room dining at hotels. A long time ago, for full-service hotels, the easy answer was always room service. For people like me, staying at a hotel, motel or Holiday Inn, it often consisted of looking in the phone book and finding a place to order a pizza or Chinese food. Hotels eventually wised up and started placing sponsored ads in the hotel rooms with local restaurants that delivered, making the phone book unnecessary.
Jump forward to today. Ordering food is just a few taps away on your phone. The number of food delivery services seems to be growing every day to the point where I can’t keep up. This shift is changing the landscape to where some hotels are even doing away with room service since guests are just ordering food to their rooms from local restaurants. I wrote about this when I wondered if dining apps would be the end of hotel room service.
Wyndham hotels and the delivery service DoorDash are taking one more step in that direction with their new promotion.

Happy Tuesday to all of our travel friends, both near and far! Here are some articles we’ve read from other bloggers (and other sources) that we think you may like, as well, so we’re passing them along.
Happy Sunday to all of our travel friends, both near and far! It was a busy week in the miles and points world. With the April 1st posts and United devaluation, I’m surprised that bloggers were able to write about anything else but there was plenty of other news. Here’s some of my favorite posts of the week, along with some posts I’ve been saving for a rainy week.
In May of 2018, Wyndham Worldwide acquired LaQuinta Holdings for 1.95 billion dollars and added 900 additional franchised hotels to their large portfolio, in what was one of the least publicized hotel mergers ever. While this merger was met with a collective yawn from the points and miles world, there is one date that you should pay attention to.
On April 3, 2019 the LaQuinta Rewards loyalty program will merge into the Wyndham Rewards program.
If you have any points in the LaQuinta Rewards program, you’ll want to transfer them to Wyndham Rewards by March 31st.
Why do you need to transfer your points by then? I’m glad you asked.
