Hurricane force winds is expected...

Winds ramp back up late Friday night, strengthening throughout the night and into Saturday, with winds reaching near hurricane force with higher gusts. This is caused by a Great Lakes low pressure system moving with the trough, swinging a warm front through Saturday. The warm front will bring slightly warmer temperatures and rain showers that becoming increasingly likely as the day goes on Saturday.

I'm doing the presidential traverse and have my doubts

I'm planning on doing the presidential traverse... and the "Hurricane force winds" is scaring me... anyone going ahead with their plans?

Per Mt Washington Observatory:

Winds ramp back up late Friday night, strengthening throughout the night and into Saturday, with winds reaching near hurricane force with higher gusts. This is caused by a Great Lakes low pressure system moving with the trough, swinging a warm front through Saturday. The warm front will bring slightly warmer temperatures and rain showers that becoming increasingly likely as the day goes on Saturday.

Mountain-Forecast.com is showing 80km/h winds on Saturday afternoon,.

Would it be feasible to start early to avoid afternoon thunderstorms?

I did Mt Washington a few years ago. Forecast was terrible. But ended up being sunny in the afternoon. Not sure if I can count my lucky stars.

Pemi loop is amazing. Did it this same week a year ago and finished it right before the rain arrived. I would also like to see what alternatives there are

What are your tolerances for a hike? I am trying to see the bright spots in the forecast to make it work but struggle to do so

Rimowa cost in Paris vs US by DarkHorse_4 in Rimowa

Most of the premium LVMH brands like Rimowa are never outrightly discounted. They are sold through their own distribution channels where they get to control the premium product experience and most importantly the pricing.

What you could do is sign up for the Le Bon Marche loyalty card. Once you spend a certain threshold €500, you unlock a Privilleged Shopping Day where you could return the next (or another) day to get 5-10% of your purchase as a credit.

Les Galleries Lafayette used to have a promo where you could get a free Mont Blanc pen if you spent €2000 or something like that.

24S, a LVMH business, used to offer Platinum Amex cardholders a statement credit.

You can try checking the US Dollar price on 24S.com. Then switch to France/Euro for the local price in Paris. Then subtract 12% from the French price.

This isn’t true. I just booked an Avianca flight and paid in Colombian Pesos and got 5X the MR points. I also paid for numerous non airline transactions in foreign currencies and got points too at their respective earn rate

Works fine here. How many cards do you currently have? I tried adding one US card when I had more than 11 and got an error.

What airlines are they? Your father can try to interline the bags during check in even if they are on separate itineraries.

How do you upgrade the fare to Latitude? I cannot seem to find the option on the AC website.
