Anyone have success stories for using AA miles on a nonstop flight? It’s infuriatingly hard to use them. Thinking of just buying flights and using miles to upgrade.

Also, any way to use/monetize 509 mike upgrades if one loses status??

I use them pretty frequently for ORD-SEA, ORD-LGA, and various ORD-HKG routings.

I flew to Sao Paolo for just 30k nonstop. I had to plan in advance but well worth it

I'm considering pivoting to copywriting because that's the part of my role I'm best at -- a lot of the account management stuff is draining, but I can whip out social and marketing copy quickly & I enjoy it. Wondering if anyone has insight / leads on making the jump from accounts to the copy side when applying for jobs? 5 YOE, 3 in-agency with a mix of automotive and pharma + a side gig as a published author with muliple books (hoping that'll help on the creative / copy end?) Thank you!

Finally got my first role as a UX Designer! Extremely excited and wanted to thank everyone that helped me out with questions and input!
