It’s no secret that one of my favorite travel apps is HotelTonight (related post). I’ve used HotelTonight a bunch of times for some last-minute stays (including at The Nines) and I’ve always had a pleasant experience. For those of you who already have HotelTonight, be sure enter promo code HEYMAMA. Just by entering, you’ll score $1 in HT credit … [Read More…]
Where to Search For and How to Book Aer Lingus Award Space for This Fall
A lot of my friends headed to Ireland in March for St. Patrick’s Day. As much as I wanted to join them, timing was bad, as I had just had a baby on Valentine’s Day. Dublin has been on my bucket list for a long time, and I think I am going to finally pull … [Read More…]
Packing Mishaps Solved by Thrifting
I’ve been so excited for my first solo “back in action” trip. My mother agreed to care for Baby Points Traveler, so that I could have a weekend for myself (complete with lots of sleeping in). What a great belated birthday gift! In short, my extended-weekend plans looked like this: Thursday and Friday in Seattle … [Read More…]
A Passenger Sent Me a Drink on My #VirginAmerica Flight Today
Today is the Freddie Awards in Seattle, and I am flying on Virgin America for the very first time. I booked this flight for just 6697 elevate points back when there was a transfer bonus with American Express Membership Rewards.

The Southwest Standard Award Trick – Up to 80% Off Flights
I’m excited to head to Seattle in a few days for the Freddie Awards and FTU. However, instead of returning back to NJ afterwards, I made a last-minute (surprise surprise) decision to spend a few days in Miami with friends. Luckily I had originally booked my return SEA-EWR on Southwest points, so I was able … [Read More…]
Sometimes a Staycation is All You Need
Since giving birth to Baby Points Traveler back in February, my traveling has obviously come to a halt. While I enjoyed being a new mom, I had been suffering from major cabin fever during the cold, gray winter months. As a treat to ourselves, Mr. Points Traveler and I had booked a romantic post-baby trip … [Read More…]
27,500 Miles to Europe in Premium Economy This Summer and Other Gems on the Virgin Atlantic Chart
I love stretching my miles as much as I can to get me to more places rather than always splurging on luxurious first and business class seats (though treating myself is always fun). A good college friend of mine invited me to spend a few days with her in London this summer, and instead of resorting … [Read More…]
Creating “Mega Trips” with United Miles and Avios
Do you ever get the urge to take a mega-trip? Not a quick weekend to Nice like I just booked, but a few weeks to several cities. I’m planning to book a multi-city hop to Asia this fall, so I’m exploring all of my redemption options now. It can be hard to visit several cities … [Read More…]
