Why should you care? Because the Chicago Seminars are a goldmine of information for maximizing your points and miles. You'll learn tips and tricks you won't find anywhere else, network with industry insiders, and maybe even score some awesome deals. It's an investment in your future travels, and saving $40 is just the cherry on top.
Why This Matters for Your Strategy
News in the points-and-miles world moves fast, and promotional changes often have a short window. If this announcement affects a card or program you hold, log into your awardtrail dashboard to check your current benefit usage, bonus progress, and whether a transfer or redemption makes sense right now — before terms change.
As a general rule: transfer points only when you have a specific redemption in mind — transfers are almost always one-way and non-reversible. If you're unsure of the value, check our redemption guides before acting.
