Today I’m sharing the current best strategies on how to use Avios to book American Airlines domestic flights! With these methods you can book flights to Hawaii from anywhere in the US for 30,000 points round trip – or less! In this video, we're diving deep into how you can leverage this shared currency. It used to be that British Airways offered a great way to do this, but now Qatar, and Finnair are the best option to book those same American Airlines flights, often for fewer points than using American's own miles. It might sound a little complicated at first, but we’ll take you step by step. Avios are actually some of the easiest airline miles to earn thanks to all the credit card transfer partners out there. We'll break down when it makes the most sense to use Qatar vs. FinnAir Avios for your AA flights, what the potential downsides are, and most importantly, exactly how to find the award availability you need. You’ll be able to unlock a whole new way to travel domestically with your points! ACTION STEPS Check out the Seats.Aero webinar.
