12 Mistakes to Avoid When Redeeming Airline Miles. – Typically, articles like this have a clickbait headline without any substance backing it up. However, the author actually makes some good points that many of us forget when booking our award flights. What tips is he missing?
You can now upgrade your Southwest boarding group online. – Since I have the Southwest Priority Card, I get four priority boarding passes each year. However, with planes so full, it can be a challenge to actually use them. Especially since we linger a bit too long at airport lounges when they’re available. Now that you can pay for the upgrades online, this is no longer a problem.

And, it adds another layer of people to deal with whenever there’s an issue with your flight, hotel, or other travel plans.
