Now, if there's a trip that we really want to take and I found something pretty good and I have to strand some miles in a program, a few hundred thousand points, I can live with that because I've got millions of points and I'll find a use case for them.
Now, there are some programs where I wouldn't, like some programs, they expire in three years.
Yeah.
Right.
No way to extend him.
I usually I will say that with the caveat because I
broke that rule recently, but I usually won't transfer to there unless I know the trip that I'm planning on taking.
The other is like the cost to cancel.
A lot of the US carriers, United, Delta, American, Alaska, cancel your flight, get a refund, get your points back.
Life Miles, which has been a
commonly used program by a lot of point starts because they have some great deals, it's like a hundred or two hundred or three hundred dollars to cancel fighting your points back per person.
Yeah,
if you are booking two one ways for four people, you're gonna spend thousands of dollars to get your points back.
So that I think it can be a tricky thing.
It's like one, you're committing the points to life miles, then two, you're not really able to cancel them.
And there used to be this subscription that made it easier and that's gone.
So you gotta make sure if you're booking something speculative, that it's in a program that you can easily cancel and it's in a program that you're comfortable having.
those miles at forever because they're not going back to any transferable currency.
So when built had a hundred twenty five percent transfer bonus to Japan Airlines.
I have like eight hundred thousand Japan Airlines.
