Welcome to Episode 113!  Hello travel community, I know this episode is a bit different, but getting to where you are going is half the battle and I wanted to tell you about some of my battles.  While I understand the basic economy gives you no frills, including seats from time to time.  I believe that using points should allow me to at least get seats reserved. It’s not like the points I used were for basic economy.  They were for an economy seat on the airplane.  Hopefully I get to sit by someone interesting and they invite me out for a coffee or drinks.  Here are the airlines that I am flying in 2023 – Iberia, Lufthansa, Aer Lingus, Finn Air, American, United, and Southwestern.  Sounds like fun to me.

If you have been thinking about getting one of these credit cards use my links: Capital One Venture X, Southwest Credit Card, Chase Sapphire Reserve, Chase Sapphire Preferred, and the Hyatt Credit Card. If you use my links to sign up for the card I get some points, and again it doesn’t cost you anything to help out the show.  Remember, if you are unable to pay your credit cards off on a monthly basis then it is not worth getting these.  Thanks so much!
