Where To Find Award Space

I've realized that my last few posts were starting to sound like an advertisement for award booking services, and that's truly not the intent. Yes, US Airways is hilariously impossible to deal with, but that doesn't mean you can't book your own awards with a bit of practice.

Beyond that, myself and everyone I work with is really passionate about this hobby. Like, crazy-scouring-award-charts-for-fun-on-Sunday-mornings passionate. And as someone who loves miles and points it just makes sense to me that you'd learn how to redeem your miles as you learn how to earn them.

After all, if you don't know what's practical with your miles, how do you know if you're accumulating the right ones?

How to Visit Cuba as an American (While It’s Still “Illegal”)

Like many of you, I was excited to hear the big news that the U.S. embargo against Cuba is ending. Wow! There’s probably a good life lesson in this news: if your government has tried something for more than 50 years and it hasn’t worked, maybe it’s time to try something else. As part of…
