My new(ish) job has me traveling quite often. In July, I will have accumulated around 25,000 miles. Previously, I have flown very little, so frequent flyer programs and their rewards are something I have not thought about much in the past.
What are some of your favorite ways to spend miles?
Are choices other than flights (hotels, shopping, dining, etc.) worth it?
What options give you the most value?
I don't have any particular destinations or dates in mind, I'm just looking for good suggestions in general.
