If you love points and miles as much as we do at The Points Guy, you definitely need to know about one of our brand-new secret weapons \u2014 Substack!<\/p>\n

We’ve launched our very own Substack called Talking Points<\/a><\/span>, where we can spill insider tips and tricks to help you travel better and cheaper. We’re even going to be hosting some “office hours” for subscribers to answer your burning points and miles questions.<\/p>\n

At Talking Points, you’ll hear us tell stories like how we booked Etihad Airways’ The Apartment<\/a><\/span> on its magnificent Airbus A380 for just 62,500 American Airlines AAdvantage<\/a><\/span> miles.<\/p>\n

Or how both Katie Genter and I regularly book Japan Airlines in business class<\/a><\/span> for as few as 60,000 AAdvantage miles. Katie told me she just booked it again, from Toronto to Chicago on American Airlines and then on to Tokyo on Japan Airlines, for just 60,000 miles in the height of ski season.<\/p>\n
