🌟 New PHX Lounge + Upcoming SAN

A major credit card issuer just opened a new lounge at PHX airport, with the next opening set for San Diego on December 6th. These lounges feature curated food, comfy seating, and unique local design elements. If you travel through these airports often, upgrading your travel card for lounge access might be worth it!

🎟️ AirTags: A Must for Holiday Travel

If you’re not using AirTags in your luggage, now’s the time to start! Apple announced that you can soon share your AirTag details with third parties, including airlines, in case your luggage gets lost. I cover that in this Instagram post. Plus, AirTags are at their lowest price ever for an early Black Friday sale.


💺 49K Points for Business Class to Europe

In this week’s YouTube video, I show how to book one of the most unique business-class products from the U.S. to Europe for just 49,000 credit card points. If you want to maximize your points and enjoy a premium flight experience, don’t miss this breakdown.

✈️ Last Day for Hawaiian Miles Bonus

Today is the last day to take advantage of Hawaiian Airlines’ 100% bonus when purchasing miles. This can be a great way to save on flights when transferring to Alaska Airlines. For example, you can book a round-trip LAX to PHX for 9,000 miles + $36, with significant savings.

🛒 Walmart+ Benefits with Amex Platinum

You might be overlooking some great Walmart+ benefits included with the Amex Platinum Card. Perks include:

24/7 Pet Care Services

Free Whopper every 3 months and 25% off at Burger King

And more! The best part? Amex Platinum covers your Walmart+ membership fee, so these benefits are free. I cover some of the benefits in this Instagram Post.

A lot of “deals” feel like marked-up stuff that have been discounted. BUT there are a couple of items that are genuinely worth considering, especially if you travel.

A few negative updates have rolled out over the last couple weeks, and if you’re not paying attention, they could cost you points. Here’s what’s going on: New Referral Restrictions (Really Sneaky Ones) Starting October 7, 2025, a certain bank (you know the one… the one I can’t mention) is making it harder to earn referral points for their business credit...

American Airlines is one of the few major U.S. airlines that doesn’t partner with any major transferable credit card point programs. No Chase, no Amex, no Capital One, no Bilt, nothing. But just because you can’t transfer your points directly to AA doesn’t mean you can’t still use your points to fly on American Airlines flights. In this week’s episode of Book Here, Not There, I show you how to book an American Airlines flight from LAX to D.C. using your credit card points—without touching a...
