š Last-minute global points deals
One of our favorite monthly promos just dropped its latest award deals for August.

Howdy, friend. If youāre here for a travel fix, well⦠youāve come to the right place. š
Letās see what went down in the travel world this past week!


ā¦ļø Feeling lucky? Hyattās latest promo is offering up to 7,770 bonus points for stays in Vegas.

š„ Fancy an Uber? Our latest YouTube video will teach you how to use it like a pro (and maximize all of its perks!).

Sometimes, you just need an escape. And sometimes that escape comes spontaneously⦠like ānext month levelā type of spontaneous.
Singapore Airlinesā Spontaneous Escapes is back and is offering discounted award flights for the entire month of August.

Before I suggest some of my favorite routes for this promo, just know that you need to book your flights by the end of July ā itās a spontaneous promo for a reason. šš»āāļø
Now, of course, you can fly to Singapore as part of this promo (and itās a great destination), but you donāt have to.
These are my favorite routes:
New York (JFK) to Frankfurt (FRA): 17,500 for economy and 56,700 miles for business
San Francisco (SFO) to Singapore (SIN): 29,400 miles for economy
Brussels (BRU), Copenhagen (CPH), Milan (MXP), and Zurich (ZRH) to Singapore (SIN): 29,400 miles for economy
Singapore (SIN) to Perth (PER): 15,050 miles for economy or 28,350 miles for business
Tokyo (NRT) and (HND) to Singapore (SIN): 18,900 miles for economy
Sure, it is hot AF in Asia right now. But Iāve been there during the summer, and prices for hotels and other tourist attractions are cheaper than normal ā thanks to the off season.
And some of those routes have you properly circumnavigating the globe. So, to be able to do that for under 30,000 miles is a steal.
š” Pro Tip: Most major issuers transfer to Singapire Airlinesā KrisFlyer program, so you have plenty of options to get your points into your KrisFlyer account.
Iāve personally transferred points from these cards:
