Worst Hotels, Overrated Places, Letting Amazing Deals Slip By

November 1, 2019 By Nancy Leave a Comment

Worst Hotels: I enjoyed this article on the worst hotels from One Mile at a Time. Don’t skip the comments!

ICYMI—IHG PointBreaks: The IHG PointBreaks list came out on Monday for stays through January 31, 2020 (we shared this on our Facebook page). There are hardly any 5000-point redemptions anymore. I’ve never been less excited about this list. Did anyone find a great deal that works with your schedule?

Southwest Adds San Diego to Hawaii Route: Southwest added flights to Honolulu and Maui from San Diego. Prices start at $129! See this post on Frequent Miler for more details.

Letting Amazing Deals Slip By: Earlier this week, AA had some amazing web deals for 5k miles to New Zealand and Hawaii. I was envious of all the people jumping on these deals, so I could totally relate to what Mark from Miles to Memories said on this subject.

5 Places I Think Are Overrated: Ian discusses 5 places he thinks are overrated on Travel Update. I disagree with him about Times Square, Las Vegas strip and London. However, I totally agree with him about the Alamo. It’s very underwhelming and super crowded.

Personal Finances from Out and Out: Before I became obsessed with miles and points blogs, I used to read a lot of personal finance blogs. So I was very interested to read Harlan’s recent post on Out and Out. I admit I was concerned he carries credit card debt, but relieved to see it’s all at 0% (a strategy my family has used from time to time). He’s got big plans!

Enjoy your weekend!
