Travel Tidbits For Wednesday, May 15th 2013
Don’t forget to enter my giveaway for a free Briggs & Riley TORQ suitcase!
- A good collection of tools is essential if you want to earn and burn miles and points effectively. Some tools get used every time you’re dabbling around with an itinerary. Others are picked up infrequently but fill a very specific niche. A new tool by Wandering Aramean seems to fit that bill. The distilled description is a tool that allows you to search for award availability to….anywhere. It allows you to search award inventory without specifying all the cities in your itinerary. Pretty cool. I can’t wait to find some dates in my schedule to give it a try.
- View From The Wing has info on a 3-day 75,000 point sign-up offer for the AMEX Business Gold Rewards Card. If you’re in the market for a solid sign-up offer, this is a good opportunity to consider.
- Finally, The Weekly Flyer has details on a 1,000 mile sign-up bonus for the US Airways Dividend Miles dining program.
When you said “tools” I thought you meant the obvious things that everybody should be using. My personal collection of Miles & Points tools include LastPass to manage all the logins, AwardWallet to track all my points and Mint to track when my credit card bills are due.
Glenn, AwardWallet is a staple of mine as well. I use 1password. What do you think of Lastpass?
