Good evening everyone, I hope your week is going well. Last year, I wrote 24 posts about buying miles and points, so I decided to take a look back at all the airline and hotel promotions to see what kind of insights I could find. I entered all the data in the table and then asked ChatGPT to provide some analysis and deeper insights into the promotions.
These insights can be helpful if you are wondering if a specific airline or hotel promotion is toward the higher end of the promotion spectrum. Here are the insights:
