Good morning and welcome back to Daily Drop, the only hump day boost you need to get through the week. 🐪
We’ve got a bunch of cool things to tell you about today, so let’s get right in:
🌎 American Airlines global award flash sale
American Airlines is currently having a flash sale on award flights that is VERY good and VERY short – you need to book these flights by midnight tonight.
But…
If you can act quickly, you can get some truly amazing deals to destinations across the globe with this flash sale.
Also, don’t forget that AA offers free cancellation on award flights… so if you do lock something in now, you don’t need to worry about any fees if you end up not going.
So, what’s the deal with the sale?
Domestic flights are on sale for as few as 7,500 AA miles:
More exciting, in my opinion, are the international deals. For example, you can fly between the U.S. and Latin America for as few as 8,000 miles, including to cities like Cancun:
That’s not bad at all.
If you’re looking for more far-flung destinations, you can fly between the U.S. and cities like Tokyo and Shanghai for just 25,000 AA miles, which is fantastic.
One of the crazier deals is New York to Delhi, India for just 22,500 miles, which is way cheaper than usual for a destination that far away…
How do you earn AA miles anyway?
Well, for starters, you can transfer Citi ThankYou points directly to American Airlines, which is one of the easier ways to do it.
Also, AA has some solid co-branded cards (I just added this one to my wallet).
AA miles are definitely harder to earn than most other airline points, but that’s also why there are so many good deals like these. 🤷🏼♂️
The bottom line
This sale is awesome.
Whether you want some cheap domestic flights, a quick Caribbean getaway, or a full-blown trip to Asia, there’s something here for everyone.
Just make sure you lock in flights by the end of the day.

🧠 How I stay sane on the road
As you know, I spend a LOT of time on the road. I’ve been to 125 countries, fly over 100 times per year, and am always on the move.
It can definitely be amazing, but it’s not all sunshine and rainbows.
That’s why, even through all the years of traveling, I still go to therapy every. single. week.
And if you want to give therapy a try, look no further than BetterHelp, which offers affordable, flexible, fully remote online therapy.
Let me be clear: you don’t need to have a mid-life crisis to go to therapy… It’s something that can teach you a lot about yourself, whether things are good, bad, or changing week to week.
Here’s what I love about BetterHelp:
It’s flexible and works wherever you are and whatever your schedule is
You can chat with therapists outside of sessions when you need some advice on the fly
You can change therapists anytime - there are over 30,000 of them who partner with BetterHelp
