Hey frequent flyers!
I'm pretty new to the game as well. Turns out the best way to earn air miles is not by flying but by using these credit cards! Who knew?
If you let me refer you then
both of us get
more bonus miles and amex get a great new cardholder. Winning all around.
Send me a message and I'll send you a referral
immediately!
Fly safe,
Jon
