replying to @Solomomtravel @Solomomtravel I know what you mean! Their economy cabin is like most airlines first class. Emirates offers a lot of deals on their first class and we hope to take advantage of it eventually #WeekendWanderlust

replying to @MandyMPower @MandyMPower @SouthwestAir We are already avid credit card users with the Rapid Rewards card! :) It’s definitely a great perk for new users though! #WeekendWanderlust

@WWTravelChat A6: I say both are important to me. I do my best to take advantage of perks such as earning Delta SkyMiles while riding Lyft. Or, dining and earning miles. I am currently skipping housekeeping to earn 250 points per day 😊

#WeekendWanderlust A7: This is the one time we’ll recommend chain restaurants. They have loyalty programs too, and can help stretch your #travel budget. We also use @OpenTable and get points for reservations we can use to dine with. https://t.co/yj99cGfG0l

A7: We like that @Expedia gives you points for bookings and try to use them for our various travel activities and bookings too! #weekendwanderlust

A7- If you're a gambler, make sure that you keep up with your casino points. They give back more than any other program. Granted, you'll probably give them way more than they will ever give you

replying to @TravelLatte @TravelLatte @OpenTable Which Mi Cocina location is your favorite? We love the one on Main St in downtown Fort Worth. #weekendwanderlust

replying to @StuartMHurlbut @StuartMHurlbut @WWTravelChat Canal cruise and exploring towns like that would be a dream come true for us! So quaint and pretty! Thanks for sharing your photos! #WeekendWanderlust

#WeekendWanderlust A8: Our top #travelhack is really basic: Use every point earning opportunity you can find! Sign up for Dining Rewards, shop from their “mall” online & get the extra mile by paying with a points-bearing card. It all adds up to free #travel & upgrades!

replying to @louisbink @louisbink This is what happens when you have to take dozens of planes out of service. Suddenly over capacity all over the place. #WeekendWanderlust

@WWTravelChat A8: 1) be nice to hotel staff and you will be upgraded 😊. But seriously, sometimes you don’t ask nicely, you don’t get. 2) sometimes it is cheaper to buy a ticket or hotel stay compared to paying with miles and points.

replying to @TravelLatte @TravelLatte @louisbink When we flew back from Boston 2 weeks ago, United was offering $1000…but again, we tend to always hear these offers when we are in time crunches to get back! #WeekendWanderlust
