Smart Travel: Upgrade Your Getaways
Where 100,000 Points Can Take You: First Class Seats, Five-Star Suites and VIP Upgrades

It sounds like a high number, but... Actually, 100,000 points is not that wild if you've earned a big signup bonus or you haven't used your points in a year or two.

I like that we're adding a United flyer in the mix. You probably know Megan is an American Airlines elite. I am a recovering Southwest loyalist.

Right. So Ben, what are your priorities when it comes to redeeming 100,000 points?

You know, it's so funny you say that, especially because you've done so many flights. I expected you to say flights. But honestly, I use points on hotels pretty much for the same reasons that you do. I will say Amex, which Megan assigned me, is not the best with hotel transfers. Hilton and Marriott are only met as hotel transfer partners with Amex. So this is a fun challenge.

Oh, yes, Ben. I know we brought you on the show for a good reason. They are one of our favorite transfer partners. And Ben, I hope you heard my wedding episode where I said I was booking my wedding hotel on Hyatt Points. That's even rather than using my actual hotel room block.

And I'll also pile on to the Hyatt love. One of my best hotel redemptions to date was booking the Ondas Maui at Waialea back when it was just a Category 4. It opened in 2013, which was close to when I went. I think they priced it so low just because no one knew about it. True hidden gem property. I will say the word has gotten out. Now it is a Category 8. I still love it. Oh my gosh. I know.
