I’m loving your videos Julia! I need to explore seats.aero more. I’ve been obsessed with Pointsyeah lately. I recently flew the 35k biz class route on TAP from JFK to LIS and it was much nicer than I was expecting. The seats were very comfortable. The IHG cardholder 4th night free is such a great benefit. 🤩

I'm new to this and just found your channel. Thank you for your eye-opening and wonderfully clear and informative tutorials! I do have one question I hope you can answer. If I used the Chase Sapphire Reserve or other card with similar points multipliers to purchase either hotel points or airline miles, would that code as a travel purchase for a 3x points/$ multiplier or a general purchase for a 1x point/$? Thank you again for your very helpful tutorials

[@geobreezetravel]

Glad you're enjoying the content and finding it useful!
When you purchase points through points.com, unfortunately it doesn't code as travel. It just codes as misc.

Hi Julia, could you make a tutorial about how to monitor the airline model for the ticket you've already booked, if you're really looking forward to fly on a particular product ( For eg. Qatar Q suites, or Etihad's A380 First class)? How can you monitor equipment changes? Also, are there programs that are more lenient with changing your flight once you find out that the airline has switched their airline model, from say an A350 to a 787? Thanks a lot! I love all your content and always make notes because there's usually so much useful information :)

[@geobreezetravel]

I'll add this to my list! that's a really good topic!

Isn't the 4th night capped at 40k points?

[@geobreezetravel]

no, but the free night certificate that comes with the IHG Rewards card is

Seats.aero, seatspy, point.me. which one do you think is best to use??

[@geobreezetravel]

personally, I like to use seats.aero for broad searches and point.me for specific date/ route searches. I also like subscribing to Roame's free newsletter for different flight deals.
