Weekly Points: Positive Change To United Awards, Transfer Bonuses To Qantas & JetBlue, Awards To Spain and More!

Amex Biz Platinum Loses Gogo:  Starting January 1, 2020, the American Express Business Platinum card will no longer offer Gogo wifi passes.  This is a bummer since it was such a useful perk especially for business travelers. Hopefully Amex makes up for it some other way.

Best Ways To Fly To The South Pacific On Miles:  The South Pacific is on many people’s bucket list because it includes Australia, New Zealand, Bora Bora and many other beautiful spots to post on your Instagram!  Getting there isn’t cheap so here are the best ways to use your miles.

Business Class Award Space To Spain:  Finding award space in a premium cabin in the summer can be very tricky.  Every once in a while though things just work out nicely. In this case there are a lot of non-stop business class awards to Spain for the summer of 2020.

Transfer Bonuses To Qantas & JetBlue:  I love transfer bonuses!  They allow you to spend less points on awards while then give you extreme value on your redeemed points.  Amex currently has transfer bonuses to Qantas and JetBlue.

What Time To Get To The Airport:  Ask 10 different people on what time you should arrive to the airport and you’ll get 10 different answers.  The truth is, there’s not an exact rule on this. However there are a number of things to consider before deciding.

Up To A 50% Bonus On Alaska Miles:  Purchasing miles can be a great way to save money on a flight as opposed to paying for a flight outright with cash.  You must crunch the numbers to see if it makes sense to you. A 50% bonus on purchased Alaska miles is something I would definitely consider.

Positive Change To United Awards:  Many times, last minute must have award flights pop up and you want to take advantage of them.  Doing so would’ve cost you $75 booking through United. Not anymore!!!
