How I saved over $10,000 in flights

Ever found yourself booking your next vacation... while still on vacation? 

I’m guilty of doing it all the time 🙋🏼‍♀️

It’s something about the spontaneity that comes with being on vacation.

… or maybe because I just can’t wait to go back on vacation

I was lucky enough that while flying to Madrid (in my last email I mentioned how my business class seats were only $1050)  I saw a deal I couldn’t pass up.

I’ve been planning a trip with my entire family to Nice and Barcelona. 

It takes a lot of strategy to bring a party of 6 from LA to Europe using points.

But it’s the only way to have a family vacation with these skyrocketing prices.

I’ve been holding off on their return flight home as I didn’t see anything that really caught my eye. 

Until now... 

I logged into seats.aero (and no, this is not a sponsored post)

And I saw a Virgin Airways ticket from London Heathrow direct to LAX.

Premium economy for 4 seats at only 100,000 points 😱

If you don’t know points all that well let me tell you it’s a freaking good deal.

So good it saved me over $10,000 in flights.

Now the kicker is there are business-class seats available. 

But it means a stop at JFK in New York. 

So if they want to stop I will pay the same amount of points to get them to New York but then they will need to take another flight to LA. 

Oh, what a good problem to have 😅

Only in the world of points does this kind of magic happen.

In my next email, I'll break down the steps I took to find and secure these deals. 

From spontaneous decision-making to leveraging platforms like seats.aero

I’ll share how flexibility and a good stash of points can lead to unforgettable family vacations.

P.S. Don’t forget, not all points are created equal
