By signing up for a rewards program with your airline of choice, you’ll get the opportunity to earn air miles which you can use to get a discount on your next flight or even an award ticket. What you may not know, however, is that there are other ways to spend your air miles as well. Here are some other great rewards that you can enjoy using your air miles.
Accommodation
Some loyalty programs, such as AAdvantage by American Airlines, enable you to spend your air miles on your hotel. Not only do these rewards programs have a large network of hotels to choose from, but you may also need to use fewer points to redeem hotel discounts than you normally would for flights.
Car Rentals
Depending on the location you’re heading to, renting a car may be essential. After all, not every destination has a public transport system, especially if you’re traveling to rural destinations. By using your air miles on a car rental, you can enjoy an array of thrilling road trips.
Restaurants
While hotels and flights can prove expensive, eating out can add up depending on the length of your stay. Reward programs such as Delta’s SkyMiles provide you with an array of dining experiences, thereby significantly reducing your restaurant check.
