Today, we’re talking about London - a city where every street corner tells a story. It’s a city we've explored and fallen in love with time and again, and we're excited to share how you can do the same, smartly using points and miles!

Imagine this: You’re soaring over the Atlantic, cozied up in business class, toasting to the beginning of an unforgettable journey. Pam has the lowdown on snagging business class tickets with airline miles, making your journey as delightful as the destination. From United’s direct flights to ANA’s fantastic deals, your dream flight to London is just points away.

But what about when you land? London's hotels are more than just places to stay; they're experiences in themselves. From the grand Hyatt Regency Churchill, echoing tales of history and luxury, to the quirky and charming boutique stays like Great Scotland Yard, your stay in London can be as unique as the city itself. Jess’s recent discovery of the Andaz, nestled next to the Liverpool Tube station, offers a perfect blend of comfort and convenience.

London is full of experiences! Whether you’re marveling at the Crown Jewels in the Tower of London, strolling through the verdant Hyde Park, or immersing yourself in the rich tapestries of history at the National Gallery, London’s attractions are endless. And with our tips, you can enjoy these experiences more, while spending less.

All this might sound extravagant, but here's the secret - it's all achievable with points and miles. Are you ready to embark on a London adventure like no other? Hit play on this episode and let us guide you through the enchanting streets of London, all while keeping your wallet happy. Safe travels and happy traveling!
