Summary
In this episode, we share some of our favorite easy ways to earn more points and miles without spending extra money. We walk through account linkings that many travelers overlook, including ways to earn rewards on things you're already doing like booking Airbnb stays, grabbing Starbucks, using Lyft, and more. We also compare Joanna's recent cash stay in Mexico to previous points stays and discuss when it makes sense to splurge and when it doesn't. Along the way, we chat about airport lounge access, Priority Pass perks, and practical strategies for stretching your points further while still creating incredible travel experiences.
