I love layovers on airline tickets as they can allow you to stop in a city for up to 24 hours for free – the airline won’t cover your hotel or meals, but they will allow you to “transit” for up to 23 hours and 59 minutes on the same ticket. This can be a […]
Iberia, a Spanish oneworld airline, recently ran the most generous promotion this year as far as airline promotions go – you could earn 9k Avios points for purchasing any ticket online through their website, up to 90k Avios points. Most one-way tickets within Spain cost $30-$40 and therefore many took advantage of this promotion and […]
I think everyone by now is convinced that Delta Air Lines wants to make the world’s worst loyalty program. SkyMiles is probably the most un-trusted loyalty program in the world. The entire foundation for Delta’s program is the fact that Delta makes any changes they want, whenever they want, without notifying members in advance. Oh […]
Lufthansa’s Miles & More Frequent Flyer Program is very valuable – you are able to book Lufthansa First Class whenever you please and aren’t subject to the 14 day restriction other Star Alliance partners are. In addition, Lufthansa offers their own Miles & More members way more availability than to Star Alliance airlines – this […]
American Airlines AAdvantage Miles aren’t as valuable as they once were a few years ago – mainly due to the fact that there was a massive award chart devaluation a few years ago and also the fact that it is increasingly harder to earn AA miles as the only transfer partner available is Starwood Preferred […]
United Airlines isn’t exactly known for a providing a wonderful service in First and Business Class. United has been struggling to shine and while their new Polaris Business Class product has been revolutionary for the airline, major cuts to the experience have left many passengers disappointed. However, United’s frequent flyer program, MileagePlus, is actually fantastic […]
Lufthansa’s Miles & More frequent flyer program is quite powerful, not only can you redeem miles for Lufthansa First Class more than 14 days prior to departure (subject to availability), the award levels for travel to most regions is quite decent and reasonably priced. The one major downside is that Miles & More does impose […]
Mixed Cabin award tickets are those that include more than one class of service on the same ticket. You usually refer to an award ticket with a mixed cabin if it includes Economy and Business/First Class on the same ticket – however tickets that include only First and Business Class are also considered mixed cabin […]
The Islands of Fiji are the most stunning place in this world – nothing is more majestic, captivating, and beautiful than these islands of paradise. Flying to exotic destinations on award tickets can be tricky – due to limited flights and lack of award availability on major carriers. I previously explained how to fly to […]
The British Airways Executive Club is one of my favourite loyalty programs when it comes to redeeming miles for short-haul travel. British Airways uses a distance-based award chart, meaning that the shorter the flight, the less miles you will pay (or the longer the flight, the more miles you will pay). The best values of […]
