My NBT (Next Big Trip) is finally just around the corner! Six weeks out now and I'm ridiculously excited. Because I've got a smidgeon of time before the trip, I sometimes find myself checking on alternate hotels/flights, etc, just to make sure I'm going where I want for the price I want to pay.
I just priced out my flights again, the same flights which I paid $530 (taxes) and 60,000 British Airways miles for (which I mostly got for free because I signed up for their credit card at at time when they were offering 100k miles to new accounts! For real!)
Here's what the fare would be if I were to pay for it outright:
Ummm... yah, that says $6309.77!!!!!!!!!!
I've gotta say that a savings of $5800 ain't bad at all!
What's the best travel hacking you've done?
& BTW: Happy 4th of July, America!
