Gondola is a free tool designed to make it easy to find hotels that offer the best value for your points or for cash. In the short time I’ve spent with it, it has already become my go-to tool for hotel trip-planning. I love that it not only shows cents per point for each hotel […]| Frequent Miler
When I first wrote about Seats.Aero (see: Seats.aero: a wonderfully nerdy tool for finding Unicorn flight awards), it was one of a kind. Unlike other award search tools, Seats.Aero does most of its work in-advance and then makes it fast and easy to find awards that would have been near impossible to find otherwise. For […]| Frequent Miler
Rove Miles debuted earlier this year and bills itself as the first universal airline mile. While that specific claim seems a bit boisterous considering the plethora of transferable points currencies on the market, this is nonetheless a platform that can be worth using, particularly for booking paid hotel stays or for its shopping portal given […]| Frequent Miler

I’m probably not going to go after JetBlue’s incredible 25 for 25 promotion. But as someone on the East Coast with the ability to travel as a family for the month of August, I am really, really, really tempted.

As the old saying goes, I need another ultra-premium credit card like I need a hole in the head. Having recently taken stock of our household ultra-premium credit cards and the cumulative weightiness of their annual fees, I have been working on trimming the fat. However, I recently realized that in doing so I made […]| Frequent Miler

It’s easy to dream about enjoying flights like these, but it’s often very difficult to find award availability. That’s where tools can help. […]| Frequent Miler

Around 2019, a new award search tool called Juicy Miles was introduced. It was amazing because it was the first ever user-friendly tool that let users search for award flights across multiple loyalty programs in the same way they were used to searching for paid flights. Juicy Miles eventually was rebuilt as point.me. It was […]| Frequent Miler
I first flew Etihad First Apartments in 2019 on an overnight flight from Abu Dhabi to London. I was blown away by that experience.
