[SUITE SPOTS] American Airlines Business Class to London + earn 75K points and a $250 credit thanks to this offer


@themilescouple

American Airlines Business Class to London

Fly lie-flat to London from 4 major US cities (NY, Boston, LA, Charlotte)! Pricing starts at 45K from the east coast or 62K for the west coast - either way, an excellent use of your points.

Some routes include summer and winter travel, but availability is predominantly in the spring.

Also: starting this week, there's an elevated welcome offer on one of our favorite "all purpose" credit cards. More on this below! If you don't have the card yet and you're looking for a way to earn more points, this is it.

Elevated credit card welcome offer

The Capital One Venture Rewards has a limited-time increase in its welcome offer: earn 75,000 points and a $250 travel credit after spending $4,000 in 3 months.

This is an excellent time to open the card. The $250 extra travel credit fully offsets the $95 annual fee, and then some. You can find out more about the card and how to apply below!

PS: You can have the Venture Rewards card even if you already have the Venture X! Just make sure it's been more than 6 months since you got it.
