For people who actually use their miles, ExpertFlyer is a website worth checking out. Next time you’re researching/planning/booking a flight, go to www.expertflyer.com. Sign up for their 5-day free trial (no credit card required) and thank me later. I especially like that you can see the paid and award seat inventory of hundreds of flights in one place.

Try to wait 6 months to close any credit card accounts. I haven’t had it happen to me, but there have been some reports of banks taking their miles back from people who close cards right away. Another annual fee isn’t going to be charged again for a year, so you should be waiting 6 to 11 months if you plan to close a credit card.
