âď¸ JetBlue flash sale (TODAY only)
JetBlue is back with its annual Fall sale, but only for a very short time. Like, only today.
Thatâs right, folks. Until the end of the day today, you can book JetBlue flights for the fall with prices as low as $39 one-way.
Here are the deets:
You must book flights by 11:59 PM EST today (Thursday)
Travel can take place between September 6th and November 15th, 2023
There are blackout dates (including all Fridays and Sundays⌠đ)
You must book your flights directly through JetBlue on this page
Overall, this is obviously a good deal⌠Whenever you can fly a good airline like JetBlue for the price of a fancy avocado toast, itâs a good opportunity.
Here are just a few examples I found of great-value flights from New York City:
Even for tickets over $39, there is still excellent value to be found.
So if you have any travel plans coming up this fall, now is the perfect time to book cheap travel on a great airline.

đ Giveaway: Earn 100,000 Marriott Bonvoy points
âď¸ Also today only: Breeze Airways $30 discount
đ¨ Marriott announces yet another new brand

đł 20% transfer bonus to Wyndham
Wyndham is not a hotel chain we often talk about. And for good reasonâtheir rewards arenât as valuable, itâs harder to earn points with them, and their hotels are just not as attractive as other chains.
But make no mistake⌠there is still excellent value to be had with Wyndham.
Also, [[ citi-aadvantage-executive-world-elite-mastercard.issuer.name ]] has just launched a transfer bonus to Wyndham, offering even more value.
Until September 16th, 2023, youâll receive an additional 20% bonus points when transferring from [[ citi-aadvantage-executive-world-elite-mastercard.issuer.name ]] to Wyndham.
20% is definitely not the best transfer bonus weâve seen, but itâs great to see new bonuses coming out at all.
And you may remember that Wyndham has a âsecretâ sweet spot for booking vacation rentals with Vacasa.
If you arenât aware, Vacasa is basically like Airbnb, but you can book them with Wyndham points.
Hereâs how it works:
Rentals cost 15,000 points per night per room
Example: A one-bedroom rental will cost 15,000 points per night, while a two-bedroom rental will cost 30,000 points per night
If you own a Wyndham credit card, youâll get a 10% discount
Bookings are freely cancelable up to 30 days prior to check-in, otherwise, you must forfeit your points if you cancel
15,000 points for a vacation rental is actually awesome đ
With this transfer bonus, youâd be able to book one of these bad boys for just 12,500 of [[ citi-aadvantage-executive-world-elite-mastercard.issuer.name ]] points, which is great.
Earlier this year, I was looking at a Vacasa rental in Lake Tahoe that was priced at over $2,000 for a 4-night stay.
With this bonus, youâd only need to transfer 50,000 points to book this stay for 60,000 Wyndham points.
That means youâd be getting a value of around 4 cents per point⌠thatâs crazy. ESPECIALLY for Wyndham points.
So if you have any points lying around with [[ citi-aadvantage-executive-world-elite-mastercard.issuer.name ]], Iâd recommend looking into Wyndham and Vacasa to see if you can put them to good use.

One of my favorite ways to learn about new travel hacks is in our very own Daily Drop Lounge, an online community of DD fans and travel hackers.
And unlike your local airport lounge, you wonât have any trouble getting into the Daily Drop Lounge. đ
Hereâs a look at a post from this past week if you want a taste of what youâre missing:
