Merchandise awards (like “buying” a laptop with your miles) are almost always a bad decision. Actually, bad is an understatement. Let’s call it an epic disaster of a decision. But “experiences” can be another story. From time to time, it’s a good idea to check in with Starwood, United, and even Delta. At the moment, here’s some offers that stand out to me:
- Using Delta miles to see a Knicks game and meet Carmelo Anthony.
- Spending United miles to attend the Tribeca Film Festival.
- 5,000 Starwood points for your kid to take the field with the Cubs for spring training in Arizona.
