Amazing Air-miles are Taking us To Miami.

Whoop whoop we have booked our flights to Miami for next year, and they were an absolute bargain, here’s how we did it. Now anyone that knows me, knows I have a bit of an obsession with collecting British Airways Avios. These are air miles that can be redeemed on British Airways flights, all over the world.  For me it is a no brainer, I just don't get why everybody I know doesn't collect them? 


During the years we have collected them, we have booked some amazing flights and saved a fortune. But this year we have been saving for the big one, a trip to Orlando. The flights have gone up so much over the years. Yet we love Orlando, so decided to start saving our Avios towards our Miami flights to bring the cost down. 



Here’s how it works; we have an American Express credit card with which every penny we spend we collect Air Miles, you also have the opportunity to build up companion vouchers. These are built up according to spend, I put all my shopping and petrol on my card, and when I pay it off I get points and my spend allocation builds up. Once you reach a certain spend level you get rewarded with a companion voucher. You can use up to 2 companion vouchers on a flight for a family of 4.

100 Happy Days,16, Jack new favourite app, Color Splash

Jack sent me the below picture today that I have decided to use as my 100 Happy Days. He took this picture in his Grandmas garden last summer, at the time I thought it was beautiful.

However the new edited version he has done today is stunning. He seems to have a very good eye for photography and is always snapping away, and editing pictures but I love what he has achieved with this new app, Color Splash from the App Store
Well done Jack, x
