Alaska and Hawaiian Miles for Domestic Award Flights 17:55

Click MORE to see Ad disclosures Welcome to Points for Normal People! Today we're diving into two airlines perfect for trips to and from the West Coast and Pacific Northwest, or flights to Hawaii and Alaska: Alaska Airlines and Hawaiian Airlines! With their merger underway, things are shifting, creating some unique opportunities, especially a cool loophole involving Amex points that gets them over to Alaska. We'll cover earning and using miles from both programs for domestic flights. ACTION STEPS Consider applying for the Hawaiian Business card before it's discontinued (check offer details). Look at personal Hawaiian cards if you have 5/24 space available. If you have any Bank of America card (credit or debit), check out the Museums on Us program. Consider adding kids as authorized users on BofA cards for museum access (no minimum age). Next time you fly Alaska and check bags, time the delivery (under 20 mins?) and claim miles if they're late. If focusing on Alaska miles, sign up for/use the Mileage Plan Shopping portal and link cards for in-store offers.

We'll cover the must-knows for earning these points (like navigating those tricky welcome offers!), the key application strategies you can't ignore, and super important: how to create an exit plan to keep your points without paying those high annual fees long-term.

Click MORE to see Ad disclosures Welcome to Points for Normal People! Today I’m sharing the current best strategies on how to use Avios to book American Airlines domestic flights! With these methods you can book flights to Hawaii from anywhere in the US for 30,000 points round trip – or less! It used to be that British Airways offered a great way to do this, but now Qatar, and Finnair are the best option to book those same American Airlines flights, often for fewer points than using American's own miles. It might sound a little complicated at first, but we’ll take you step by step. Avios are actually some of the easiest airline miles to earn thanks to all the credit card transfer partners out there. We'll break it all down for you so that you understand each step. ACTION STEPS Check out the Seats.Aero webinar.

24:11

Click MORE to see Ad disclosures Welcome to Points for Normal People! Today is special because I’ll be sharing the tips and tricks I’ve learned from you. The Points for Normal People community is full of great information and on occasion some of you have reached out to me with resources or information that I wasn’t even aware of. I’m so thankful to each of you who reached out to me and excited to share that information today. One CORRECTION: You don’t earn 4 points per dollar with every Southwest card – just with the higher $199 annual fee business card. You earn 3 points per dollar with the other Southwest business card. Season three is coming soon and I’d love to hear from you! Do you have any specific topics you’d like to see me cover? Send me an email at katie@katiestraveltricks.com . ACTION STEPS If you have a Southwest credit card, use this trick to check Southwest credits: https://katiestraveltricks.com/southwest-upgraded-boarding/ If you want to try the Southwest schedule change trick, try it with round trip flights for an even better chance at being able to change to a better flight. If you are working toward a Southwest Companion Pass and you need a few extra points, transfer points from your Southwest account to another person – pay the fee with your business card to earn up to $500 in reimbursement – and you’ll earn 2,000 extra points. Verizon customers: To keep your autopay discount, but pay your bill with a credit card that offers cell phone protections, keep your autopay setup, but pay your bill in the store at a kiosk before the due date.

Click MORE to see Ad disclosures Welcome to Points for Normal People! In this episode, I’ll be sharing about the most requested topic for this podcast; when to close your credit cards for maximum value. I’ll break down the various reasons that you may want to cancel a card and then give you a list of questions to ask yourself, to make sure that you get the most out of your card before you cancel. If you find yourself new to credit cards and points, I’m here to help you with all the details, keeping it as simple as possible, and making sure that you get the most out of your credit cards for what you value! ACTION STEPS: Begin the process of evaluating your cards, by asking the first question: Do the benefits outweigh the annual fee? After you have answered the question above, for any card you are considering canceling, you can ask the following questions: Will I lose my points if I close this card? Can I combine these points with another card before I cancel? Will I lose the ability to transfer my points to travel partners if I close my card? If yes, am I okay with that? Do I want to transfer points before closing? Are there any benefits I can get one more time? Should I keep this card so I can refer other people to it? How will closing this card affect my relationship with this bank? Do I have at least one card left with this bank? How will closing this card affect my credit score, specifically credit utilization? When can I apply for this card again?
