JetBlue is running an incredible (and incredibly limited) 80% off promotion from yesterday through February 1. Every day at noon ET, a few flights will be released with a promo code that will get you 80% off selected roundtrips for a very limited number of days.

Here were yesterday's routes: a mixture of JFK and LGA, international and domestic.

The dates are extremely limited, but the price is right. St.

I got an email today that flying three paid JetBlue roundtrips during 2013 will automatically earn a 5,000 point bonus.
The email says:
"Here’s something to celebrate: We’re giving 5,000 bonus points to every TrueBlue member who purchases and flies three roundtrip JetBlue flights in 2013. It’s that easy. That’s 5,000 extra points to use toward any seat, anytime, on any flight operated by JetBlue. Period."
I couldn't find any more information on the promo, but it sounds pretty clear: no registration, no hassle.

This is the fourth post in a monthlong series that started here. Each post will take about two minutes to read and may include an action item that takes the reader another two minutes to complete. I am writing this for an audience of people who know nothing about frequent flier miles, and my goal is that by the end, you know enough to fly for free anywhere you want to go.

Emirates 413
Auckland (AKL) – Sydney (SYD)
Depart: 6:40 PM on Saturday, January 12
Arrive: 8:05 PM
Duration: 3:25
Aircraft: Airbus A380
Seat: 3A (First Class)

I remember the moment I booked my Emirates A380 First Class Seat. It was after 11 PM, but I had to call someone to vent my excitement before I burst. And now the moment had arrived to get on the plane.

I know there are some people who have wandered over since reading about the site in the New York Times.

From my experience, some of you will mistakenly conclude that traveling with miles is too difficult for you and will miss out on the way all of us fly for pennies around the world in First Class.

I spent $90 for a First Class Suite, bed, gourmet food, top-shelf alcohol, and access to an onboard shower. Thanks miles!

Don't be one of these people.

Part II: US to Asia via Europe for 90k Miles in Business

Part III: Adding a Great Sidetrip

This is the third and final installment breaking down my trip to Asia using US Airways miles. The main award is posted below:

Washington-Dulles -> Istanbul (23 hour layover) [Turkish]
Istanbul -> Seoul-Incheon -> Tokyo-Narita [Asiana]
Tokyo-Narita -> Washington-Dulles [All Nippon Airlines]

US Airways is extremely relaxed with their routing rules as you can see above.
