I liked how grounded this one was especially the idea that it’s okay to sometimes book a “bad” redemption if it saves your sanity. Been there. Also agree that extended-stay redemptions with free breakfast are still underrated gold. IHG points for a Candlewood with a full kitchen and no resort fees? Yes please.
Curious if anyone’s still using ANA for Star Alliance business redemptions? Still a solid sweet spot if you can deal with their clunky website and advance planning.
