✈️ American Airlines Just Clipped Your Upgrade Path & Delta's Practically Giving Away Seats to Saudi Arabia

Episode 492 Published 1Β month ago
Description
American Airlines is making a major change to elite complimentary upgrades on select domestic routes starting August 25th, and if you've been scoring lie-flat seats from coach, your strategy needs to shift now. Delta has launched a jaw-dropping SkyMiles award sale on its new Atlanta-to-Riyadh route, with one-way prices so low they've created an unintentional travel hack worth knowing about. Two credit cards are running elevated welcome offers right now β€” including a Marriott Bonvoy card with 150,000 points and a Citi card that just got a major boost thanks to a new transfer partner. World of Hyatt is offering 20% off purchased points through October 5th, but there's a catch you need to know before buying. Plus, Delta's July reliability numbers are in and they're ugly, and a TSA fee triple-charge story is a warning every traveler needs to hear.
