We are an independent publisher. Our reporters create honest, accurate, and objective content to help you make decisions. To support our work, we are paid for providing advertising services. Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Next” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. The compensation we receive and other factors, such as your location, may impact what ads and links appear on our site, and how, where, and in what order ads and links appear. While we strive to provide a wide range of offers, our site does not include information about every product or service that may be available to you. We strive to keep our information accurate and up-to-date, but some information may not be current. So, your actual offer terms from an advertiser may be different than the offer terms on this site. And the advertised offers may be subject to additional terms and conditions of the advertiser. All information is presented without any warranty or guarantee to you.

This page may include: credit card ads that we may be paid for (“advertiser listing”); and general information about credit card products (“editorial content”). Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Apply Now” button or “Learn More” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. When you click on that hyperlink or button, you may be directed to the credit card issuer’s website where you can review the terms and conditions for your selected offer. Each advertiser is responsible for the accuracy and availability of its ad offer details, but we attempt to verify those offer details. We have partnerships with advertisers such as Brex, Capital One, Chase, Citi, Wells Fargo and Discover. We also include editorial content to educate consumers about financial products and services. Some of that content may also contain ads, including links to advertisers’ sites, and we may be paid on those ads or links.

    Here’s some good news for impulse shoppers and people who like to book award travel while they’re on the go (like me!) – American Airlines has updated their app so that you can use your American Airlines miles to book award flights on the go.

    When I first heard about this I thought to myself “wait, is this not an option with every airline’s app?”  I guess it’s not.  But it really should be!  So good for American Airlines for taking this step.  I know that Delta and United Airlines have had this option available for a while, so it’s nice to see other airlines are catching on that it’s an important feature for their customers.

    New Update – Now You Can Book Award Travel on the American Airlines Mobile App!

    American Airlines Mobile App Update

    Here’s why I love the ability to book award travel while I’m…traveling – it allows me the flexibility to use the miles I’ve accumulated whenever I want.  This update is now available on both iOS and Android devices.  Here are a few reasons this new feature is somewhat significant:

    Do you consider this new update a game changer?  Or does booking travel on your mobile device seem like it’s not a big deal?  Personally, I’m thrilled to know that I can use my miles to book flights whenever and wherever I want.
