I’ve found a hotel cheaper on Expedia than on the hotel website. Worth calling the hotel directly to book and price-match? Don’t think I can get points w/ Expedia booking. Thanks for your help!

I have a boss from hell. She’s the GM of my hotel and she is a mean girl that never grew out of highschool. She loves gossip.

I want to stand up but I’ve seen her retaliate on people who have tried to. Help.

Can someone walk me through the Do's and Don't's of AA miles? I think they're a joke.

I have 65k miles and I could only pay for a one-way ticket from PHX-JFK. I had to book 1 leg with miles and the 1 with cash, but booking the other leg in cash was about 80% of the round trip in cash.

My mom has 12k miles that expire soon, transferring them would cost me $450. I can pay for a round trip with that cash but I can only pay for a trip to my kitchen with those 12k miles.

What am I doing wrong? 😂
