Here at TPG, we eat, sleep and breathe travel credit cards and maximizing points and miles. So, when we select our Best Premium Travel Card for the annual TPG Awards, you know it stands the test of some fierce competition.
Looking to indulge in some Champagne or caviar at 35,000 feet? You could transfer your miles to Emirates and upgrade from economy to business class or from business to first class for only 39,000 miles, just like TPG’s very own Nick Ewen did earlier this year.
How about island-hopping around Hawaii? Turkish Airlines has an incredible sweet spot for booking United Airlines flights from anywhere in the U.S. to Hawaii for 10,000 miles in economy — and dedicated deal hunters can even find the occasional business-class seat for only 15,000 miles!
Whether you’d like to stretch your 75,000 miles with these types of transfers or just simply redeem them through Capital One Travel at 1 cent apiece (giving you a respectable up to $1,050 in value with the annual $300 travel credit), the TPG Award-winning Venture X packs a lot of value and is the standout choice for any traveler.
