175. Using Points for Kids' Sports, Road Trips, and Family Travel
About this episode
The episode discusses how families can use points and miles for travel related to kids' sports and road trips.
What if you could cover the cost of all those road trips, tournaments, and quick overnight stays without paying out of pocket? In this episode, Alex, Pam, and Jess share how points and miles can be used for the kind of travel families are already doing, from kids' sports weekends to airport stays and visiting family. The Squad walks through practical ways they use points for these trips, including choosing family-friendly hotels, using free night awards, and taking advantage of hotel credits that come with credit cards. They also talk about what actually matters for these stays, like complimentary breakfast, space for families, and convenience, along with how they decide when to use points, free nights, or cash.
