Wow...
Those are the ones that *do* interest me!
Just reading down the list of AA benefits, I suppose my list would be:
- Discounted AA club membership. Never even knew it was there...
- Special discounts on hotel and car rental awards. Don't even know what this really is. Am I missing something important?
- Exclusive partner offers. Also don't know what this is.
In the hotel world, my list would be:
- Check cashing privileges. This one is a bit dated.
I suppose I'd need a paper check of some sorts, and I'd have to time-travel back to the 90s to find one.
- Spa discounts and similar. Hotels seem to mark up spa services by 100% or more, but hey, thanks for that 20% Diamond discount...
