How to Get Free Gogo Inflight Wifi on iPhone
April 5, 2017
Gogo Inflight Wifi can be annoyingly expensive for the short amount of time you want to use it. Those with Boingo accounts used to be able to access Gogo Inflight Wifi for free. That changed in June of 2014. Maybe you just need to hop online to check flight information, or something equally important and brief. If you have an iPhone this hack is for you.
Below I've outlined simple steps for accessing Gogo Inflight Wifi on your next flight without paying.

Getting An Instant Credit Card Number Upon Approval
January 26, 2017
We've all been there.
With no prior warning, you're faced with a large expense that must be paid ASAP. Most cards cards take a week if not more to arrive in the mail. But to spend that much money and not reap tons of rewards from it seems like blasphemy... what's a girl to do??
Sometimes you can request a card number (and expiration date and security code, all you'd need for purchase) immediately after approval.
Merry Christmas Eve MileValue Readers!
December 24, 2016
Ho ho ho! Merry Christmas everyone.
Scott and I toasted MileValue and the new year over steaks and malbec last night here in Buenos Aires. We hope your holiday is full of too much food, interesting destinations you got to with miles, and tacky Christmas sweaters. Like the one I'm wearing here circa 1992.
As we did for Thanksgiving, we're taking off over the weekend to enjoy the holiday because--let's be honest--you don't want read about miles right now.
Review: San Francisco Centurion Lounge
December 6, 2016
A few weeks ago I flew from Virginia to Hawaii on United with a layover in San Francisco during which I gorged in the American Express Centurion Lounge.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Wishing you a lovely day of stuffing yourself silly, family, friends, and plenty of rest.

November 23, 2016
As you've heard me say many times at this point, I reside in Buenos Aires for the majority of the year (9ish months out of 12), but was in the United States recently visiting. While home, I took the opportunity to sign up for a couple new cards to bring back with me to Argentina--the Asiana Visa Signature Card and the Alaska Airlines Visa Signature.
I’ve Had My Citi Prestige For Almost a Year. Now What?
November 20, 2016
About a year ago I excitedly opened a Citi Prestige card, ready for my 50,000 ThankYou point bonus and lounge access, among other things. Since the, the bonus has dropped to 40,000 ThankYou Points, but considering the myriad of other benefits the card maintained, it's still worth getting if you haven't had it yet. Read our full review of the Citi Prestige.
11 months into holding any card that's got an annual fee, I do a cost/benefit analysis to figure out if I'm getting enough value from the card to keep it open.
