How do we travel more than once a year?
We use points and miles to subsidize our trips. On this page you will learn more about the flights we’ve taken and hotels we’ve stayed in using points and miles. We also review the credit cards we use for these trips. Every one of these credit cards and all of these trips are based on our personal experiences.
Traveling during Christmas can be expensive. Here’s how we visited Rome and Milan on a budget using our points and miles.
If you live on the East Coast of the U.S. and near an American Airlines hub like we do, then you will want to make sure that you are stocking up on points that will help you get across the country or across the Atlantic.
American has great deals where you can fly from the East Coast to Europe for 30,000 points or fewer. You just have to plan in advance (or hope for a last minute deal).
Scandinavia is EXPENSIVE. Here’s how we were able to afford our Christmas holiday in Helsinki, Rovaniemi, and Stockholm.
If you are looking for a beautiful place to spend a weekend while visiting Washington, DC, then look no further than The Wharf. We had a great overnight visit at the Intercontinental and were surprised at how family-friendly a city hotel could be.
In order to afford this trip during peak travel time, spring break, we used points for our hotel stay. If you, too, are looking for a quick getaway that does not break the bank, and want hear about our experience, then read on.
I’ve had a Capital One Venture card in my wallet for 6 years now, so it seemed like a good time to explain WHY I would not close this card, and how it’s served us over the past few years.
