Credit card usage

Use your credit card points to redeem for free flights with your choice airline. You have to be careful as the rewards may lose their value due to interest. The annual fee is higher if you travel frequently. There are several ways to maximize the travel reward value. Here are a few.


Purchase a one way ticket

A one-way flight is an option if you want to save money. One-way tickets can be cheaper than round trip fares and they are often more expensive than round-trip flights. However, you can also get a one-way ticket from some airlines. In fact, almost a third of the top U.S. airlines now offer one-way flights.

Buying a flight with a Saturday night stay

In the past, many major airlines required passengers to fly on a Saturday night in order to qualify for the lowest fares. Saturdays are slower days for air travel so they often have lower fares. However, this penalty has been reduced thanks to the arrival of ultra-low-cost airlines and disruptors like Southwest and JetBlue. Corporate travel managers are still complaining about Saturday night ticket prices.

Flying during the off-season

It is best to travel off-season when possible. You will pay more if you travel to Hawaii during Christmas or other busy times. Also, consider alternate dates to maximize your travel day.
