I just applied and was approved for the Discover it Miles Card, which offers unlimited 1.5x miles per dollar on all purchases.

This blog became famous because I was the first to articulate how to book free one ways on United and US Airways awards.

A free one way is a one way trip to or from your home airport that is tacked onto another award for no extra miles.

Brian asked in a comment:
Not sure about the mechanics of using [ThankYou] points. Can I transfer these to AA to receive miles that will be added to my AA balance, or are these points used exclusively on their own for a flight on, say, AA?
Here's how ThankYou Points--the points earned on the Citi Prestige® Card, Citi ThankYou® Premier Card, and other Citi cards--work.

American Express Membership Rewards transfers to Virgin Atlantic miles will come with an automatic 25% transfer bonus from now through April 30, 2015.

Wandering Aramean got "part of an internal memo describing [United's] plans for the coming year." It says:
Deliver first phase of united.com 2.0 by 2q 2015, including bundled ancillary offerings;
Some time in this quarter (by June 30), United plans to roll out a new website with new bundled fare options, which sounds like what American Airlines offers. Not that interesting. Moving on...
begin introducing dynamic award pricing.
Uh-oh!

"Dynamic award pricing" would mean that award prices change, presumably based on the cash price of the underlying ticket.

Emirates First Class is now bookable with Alaska Airlines miles again! A search today for May:

Click on "Nonstop" or "1 stop" to see flight details for each flight. The aircraft is listed on the pop up. Emirates Flight 204 is served by an A380, which means showers are onboard.In case you missed the saga, for a while, Emirates First Class was only bookable on alaskaair.com for flights through March 28, 2015.

Update at 2:55 PM ET: All deals sold out. I missed out. Being in Hawaii for Daily Getaways makes it tough to get in on the deals.

Today is the tenth day of five weeks of discounted travel packages from the US Travel Association called Daily Getaways.
