One of the most frequent questions I get from friends, family, and readers is: “How can I get to Europe during the spring/summer using miles?” I don’t blame them – the weather in Europe is beautiful during those times of the year, and I’m so super excited about my upcoming trip to Nice/Cannes that I … [Read More…]

The United / Vinesse Wine Offer is a Pretty Good Deal

March 10, 2014 by Angelina Aucello 10 Comments

I love wine; and I love saving money on wine. After purchasing 8 bottles of wine this weekend at about $12 a pop for a family gathering (which ultimately turned into a giant app-o-rama… more on that later), I decided that it might be time to consider joining a wine club… even for only a … [Read More…]

Rant: This United Devaluation Nonsense is Stressing Me Out

November 1, 2013 by Angelina Aucello 10 Comments

I hate planning ahead. I hate planning ahead. I hate planning ahead! There – I got it out of my system. But seriously, if you have been living under a rock and haven’t heard the terrible news yet, United just announced some “changes” to their award chart. “Changes” is a terrible word in the flyer … [Read More…]

February 19, 2013 by Angelina Aucello 47 Comments

I just got back from an incredible weekend with friends in Istanbul. Ironically with the ~$400 fares we all took advantage of, I was not too surprised to learn that roughly 30-40% of the people on board the Valentine’s Day United flight from Newark to Istanbul were points and miles enthusiasts as well. Up in … [Read More…]
