Client Case Study: Turning 200,000 Points Into Real Savings ✈️

 


Client Case Study: Turning 200,000 Points Into Real Savings ✈️

I met with a new client this week who's planning a true bucket list trip: the Arctic, Norway, and the Cotswolds. She'd already booked several hotels before we sat down together, but here's the thing — she was sitting on more than 200,000 Citi points and had no idea how far they could go.

We got to work switching her existing hotel reservations from cash to points, which saved her $600 right off the bat. 💰 Then we booked one of her internal flights with points instead of cash, saving her another $200. She's now working through her remaining hotel reservations to see how much more she can save.

This is exactly why we love flexible points — they can flex to cover whatever part of your trip needs it most. 🙌

I get it, spending points can feel hard sometimes. You can read about the top five reasons why it's hard to spend those points. But here's a good reminder: points don't gain value the longer you sit on them. Cash does. So hold onto your cash, and let your points do the work.
