However,<br> out of PHL,<br> the cheapest itinerary is usually American,<br> since it's a hub. Hence,<br> for all but one of my itineraries this year,<br> I chose the cheapest.\n\nAlso much of my non-business travel is \"award travel\" where you redeem airline miles for the ticket. Usually I get these miles by churning credit cards. This award travel does not count towards elite status. However,<br> sometimes you can get amazing deals,<br> like when @trang and I round-tripped PHL to MMH for a total of 40,<br>000 miles. Now there's a transcontinental itinerary to a pricey destination at the lowest redemption rate + 10% discount from my Aviator Red Mastercard.",<br>"json_metadata":" \"community\":\"busy\",<br>\"app\":\"busy\/2.5.6\",<br>\"format\":\"markdown\",<br>\"tags\":[\"travel\" ,<br>\"users\":[\"trang\" ,<br>\"links\":[\"\/trending\/noloyalty\",<br>\"\/@trang\" ,<br>\"image\":[ " |
