I guess I’m going to be flying somewhat often now and have no idea where to even start taking advantage of points..
I have a start with American Airlines and their doesn’t seem to be a general airlines forum here so I suppose I’ll start here..
I will probably mostly be flying in/out of TVC Traverse City Michigan airport, but I’ll also probably be hopping all over the country (USA) from one place to another.. (expecting an Omaha to Vegas here in a couple days for example)
I doubt I’m going to be able to stick with just one airline so I’ll probably wind up with points accounts for a few, but I might have some choices in my flights..
Can you tell me a little about what airlines to avoid, what airlines participate with eachother points/miles wise, and what airlines I can get the most points values out of?
Just want to take advantage of all of my employment perks that I possibly can..
No credit cards, company pays for them all themselves..
Probably will be a LOT of last minute bookings.. These things are not planned out in advance at all..
Basically I’ll call traveliance and tell them I need to fly from X to X on X day, and they will give me like 3 flight options I can choose from..
I have no idea what I should be choosing..
Where do I even begin? I’m a total noob at this..
As above sign up for all the 3 major airlines AA UA & DL, Alaska AS is a ff partner of AA.
With last minute bookings those will be likely be expensive (for your employer) but good for ff earning (for you)
Will depend a lot on where you go. As a wild guess a lot of transit through ORD.
