  • It's not always the best strategy to use your points. If you have more travel needs than you have points, you should consider paying cash rather than redeeming your points for low-value options. Save your rewards for times when they go furthest, but don't hoard them for years either.

The article on CNET discusses strategies for maximizing travel rewards through credit card points and miles, as taught by travel expert Adam Hill. Hill emphasizes the importance of understanding the value of points and miles, which can often be worth more than their face value when redeemed wisely. He suggests focusing on earning points through everyday spending, signing up for cards with lucrative welcome bonuses, and taking advantage of category bonuses where cards offer extra points for specific types of purchases like dining or travel. Additionally, Hill advises on the strategic use of travel portals, airline alliances, and transfer partners to stretch the value of points further. He also highlights the significance of timing, such as applying for cards during promotions or when there are limited-time offers for increased points. By employing these tactics, individuals can potentially earn 50% more in points and miles, significantly reducing or even eliminating travel costs.
