BBVA Compass Points, Unlimited Flights For A Fixed Price, Etihad Award Discounts & More On Killing Deals

Credit card rewards analysis: how much are BBVA CompassPoints worth? by PFdigest. I’m not entirely sure the new NBA credit card earns these points, it looks like they earn DoubleTriple points which might have a different redemption options but this is still useful information (you’ll see why tomorrow). Points are worth up to 1¢ each, but you need to redeem at least 75,000 ($750) at a time to get this value.
Unlimited Flights for $2,000/month in US by Fly And Dine. Seems like an interesting model especially for executives that are flying a lot, but it’s a brand new service so I’ll be waiting for the reviews to flood in before seriously considering it.
25% Off Etihad Redemptions! by View From The Wing. Etihad is probably one of my favorite airlines to fly (actually I think it is my favorite airline to fly, at least in economy) Also keep in mind it’s currently possible to get 1,000 Etihad miles for free when you join.
Weekend thoughts on killing deals by Freequent Flyer book. I’m obviously still trying to work this out myself and I appreciate all of the ongoing discussion going on here and all those who have contacted me personally via e-mail as well. I have a few ideas on what I could do but don’t want to make any rash decisions in the mean time and want to consult people I trust/respect. Either way if you haven’t already, join the newsletter as that is where everything will be going for now.
