I share my points and miles strategy quite a bit, and one of my favorite tips is: Do not earn only 1 mile per dollar on everyday spending. To avoid this, I make sure I have a card that earns 2 miles on everything for when I need to spend money on something outside of my other cards’ bonus categories.
If you’re looking to do the same, the timing could not be better.
This is a great card no matter what your goals are – whether you’re newer to points and miles, you prefer a straightforward earning structure, or you use it as part of a wider earning strategy like me. It’s great because of the flexibility it offers to cover all sorts of travel with these miles.
For example, you can redeem these miles at 1 cent apiece against any travel charges you put on the card, or book flights or hotels through Capital One Travel with them, which gives you up to $1,000 of value from this welcome offer alone. (Not bad for a card that charges a modest $95 annual fee.)
For example, you could transfer the miles to Air France-KLM Flying Blue and book bougie business-class seats from the U.S. to Europe starting at 60,000 miles plus taxes and fees each way. Or transfer to Virgin Atlantic Flying Club, where you can find lie-flat Upper Class seats to the U.K. for as little as 29,000 points plus taxes and fees each way.
This card could be a great addition to your points and miles-earning strategy, and the value of this offer is a no-brainer, so don’t miss out on this limited-time offer while it is up at the highest level we’ve seen in years.
Have a great weekend,
BK
