4 Ways to Get United Economy Plus Seating Without Paying

February 14, 2017 by Angelina Aucello 2 Comments

Invalid request error occurred.

As a former United Premier 1K member, going from top-tier elite to merely a MileagePlus “member” was quite an adjustment, but I still turned down United’s “buy-up” offer to Premier Silver status this year. Economy Plus seating on United flights offers extra leg-room in a more desirable location on the aircraft (such as closer to … [Read More…]

A few weeks ago, I kicked off the new year by taking a fun family trip to do some plane-spotting on Maho Beach. I booked our outbound flights on JetBlue using points, and purchased our return flights on United, paying for only a small portion of the tickets using my Citi Prestige card. For a … [Read More…]

It’s no secret that I really love flying JetBlue Mint class, and I’m thrilled that the airline is continuously expanding the product onto more of its routes. I consider Mint to be the best US first class product out there, and there are times where it can be super affordable either using cash or TrueBlue points.

A Loyalty Program I Forgot I Had Saved Me $250

January 25, 2017 by Angelina Aucello 7 Comments

In 2009, I visited the Sandals Whitehouse resort in Jamaica and absolutely loved the all-inclusive, romance experience. Back then, it was harder to find “high-end’ all-inclusive, and Sandals had a cream-of-the-crop reputation. For those who have vacationed at a Sandals all-inclusive property before, you probably already know it’s a treat- and it can cost a pretty penny. Even though I … [Read More…]

In 2016, I flew 35,000 premier qualifying miles on United; however, I was less than $50 short on the $3,000 spend requirement that is now in place to obtain Premier Silver status.
