As we settle in here at MileValue, we want to take a minute to ask you a few questions in order to better serve you - our readers.

In case you missed it, you can learn more about the MileValue transition.

As we mentioned in the announcement, we have some exciting ideas for serving up new and refreshed content and your feedback can help us make this happen.

When I’m trying to decide what my next credit card is going to be, I consider a lot of factors. What trips do I want to take in the next one to two years? What points do I currently have? What points do I want? What’s my 5/24 status? 

These questions always help guide me towards a card that will help me meet my goals. I don’t open cards just for the sake of opening them.

10xTravel has acquired MileValue and we are absolutely thrilled about it.

That’s it. That’s both the headline and the story.

We are thrilled to have the opportunity to continue to build upon an amazing and well-respected brand. We are thrilled to engage with a new audience of points & miles enthusiasts.

Hey MileValue readers! It's been a little while, and the world looks more than a little different since the last time we spoke. Things are looking different for this website as well, with new ownership and a new era on the horizon.

When COVID-19 started to spread across North America in March--and the pandemic took hold--things behind the scenes for us shifted quickly and drastically, as they did for many businesses.

We (definitely) do not know what we are going to get. For air travel, it is already in the cards and new evidence piles into the box every day.

Updated Monday, July 13 to include expanded dates of blocked seats on Alaska Airlines and JetBlue.

The landscape of aviation is changing faster than a private jet en route to a private island. If you find yourself travelling, be ready for a very different experience. It starts even upon arrival to the airport. Once onboard, you’ll find that the usual amenity kit may now be replaced by masks and hand sanitizer.

One of the most polarizing issues onboard is social distancing. Only a few airlines are blocking middle seats while others are selling all available seats.

If you’re anything like us, nearly every moment of this pandemic has been spent dreaming of travel. Especially as we try to avoid nauseating headlines like “Corona” being on the rise for baby names. With U.S. residents barred from entering Europe for the foreseeable future, now is the time to focus on feasible travel.

In this three-part series, we are looking at the basics of the cheapest domestic awards.

Today we're featuring a guest post from our friend and colleague, Freddy Lanksy, of Points Panda. He's sharing his opinion on the impact COVID-19 has had on the travel industry, and how travel agencies are adapting.

The COVID-19 pandemic dealt a big blow to the world economy. Since the first outbreak happened in the U.S. back in January, a lot of businesses have halted their operations to prevent the spread of the deadly virus.
