Heads up, awardtrail readers! If you've been dreaming of exploring Shanghai, now might be your chance. We're seeing some seriously good deals on flights from the US popping up. While a specific example is January 22nd - 29th, 2026, that's just a taste of what's out there.
Why should you care? Well, flights to Asia can be pricey, so a drop in fares means more money in your pocket for delicious dumplings and exploring the Bund. Plus, snagging a cheaper flight frees up your points and miles for upgrades or other travel adventures.
Keep an eye out and do some searching! This could be the perfect opportunity to finally tick Shanghai off your bucket list without breaking the bank.
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.
