Before I retired I traveled extensively and always tried to stay at Marriott properties. I have Platinum Elite for life status. I always try to cash my points for hotel stays when the hotel is $500 or higher. This seems to work well to get value. The Luxury Collection really fills this kind of hotel well for trips to Europe. You have a great point on not getting to many points you don’t lose.
Hey Ricky, I had a question for you. I was wondering if there is an Easier way to look for flights when I’m trying to redeem my American Express points for a flight that is first class. For me I know you have to do research but I literally have never been able to find availability.
Hi Prince! Your videos are awesome thanks for your time and effort! This is what it says on the Air Canada Website as you know, Every seat, every Air Canada flight, no restrictions Any Air Canada seat you see available to buy in cash, you can use your points to redeem for it. With every fare class included and no blackout periods, you choose when to use your points..... Well I just rang and spoke to Air Canada as I had found seats on an Air Canada flight with an AC.....flight number and they told me it was not available on Points? I have 25k Status and a lot of points but can't use them. As you are affiliated with Air Canada and their Aeroplan can you please comment on this? They are saying one thing but not doing it!? Thanks in advance! Also, has anyone else had this problem??
@@justinthomason3253 Looks like it's a codeshare for LAX-AKL on Air New Zealand? This would be a partner-operated flight, not an Air Canada operated flight, so it would still be subject to the normal award availability patterns (and Air New Zealand is pretty notorious for being stingy when releasing award space).
@@PrinceofTravel but let’s be honest Air Canada markets that every air Canada seat on every air Canada flight is available on points and they market this flight as Air Canada with an air Canada flight number. So their marketing claim is simple not true.
