Settle this one for us 👇

A: Qatar Qsuite. Business class, but you get a suite with a door, a lie-flat bed, and middle seats that open up into a double or a group "quad".

B: Emirates A380 First. A private suite with doors, a shower spa on board, and the A380 lounge bar a short walk away.

You'd book Qsuite with Avios (Citi to Qatar has a bonus of up to 35% until Oct 31) and Emirates with Skywards miles. Both are only on some routes and planes, so check before you book.

So which one are you booking, A or B? And tell us why.

United and Air Canada just announced 6 new routes between the US and Canada for summer 2027.

United's new ones:
👉 Newark to St. John's, Newfoundland (summer seasonal)
👉 Denver to Ottawa
👉 Denver to Quebec City

Air Canada's new ones:
👉 Toronto to Louisville
👉 Montreal to Indianapolis
👉 Edmonton to Newark

The points angle: both airlines are in Star Alliance, so you can use Air Canada Aeroplan points on United flights and United miles on Air Canada flights. Chase and Bilt points move 1:1 to both programs, and Amex and Capital One points move 1:1 to Aeroplan. Check both programs before you transfer, since the price for the same seat can be different.

Which one are you flying first, Quebec City or St. John's?

JetBlue's new first class is officially on sale.

It's called BlueFirst, and the first flight is Dec. 8 from Boston to Fort Lauderdale. Fort Lauderdale to New York LaGuardia follows a few days later, and more routes roll out through April.

What you get: wide recliner seats two by two, up to 7 inches more legroom and a meal on longer flights. It's not lie-flat. That's still Mint.

The points part: JetBlue says BlueFirst can be booked with TrueBlue points. The points price follows the cash fare, so a cheaper BlueFirst flight costs fewer points.

No TrueBlue points yet? Chase Ultimate Rewards points move over 1:1. Citi ThankYou points do too from cards like the Strata Premier. Amex points move at 1,000 to 800.

One tip: check the seat map before you book. JetBlue says BlueFirst may only be on some flights on a route while planes get the new cabin.

Would you spend points on BlueFirst or save them for Mint?

Two of Hilton's fanciest resorts in Mexico just went all-inclusive.

Since Oct 1, the Waldorf Astoria Riviera Maya (up near Cancun) and the Conrad Tulum Riviera Maya roll your meals, drinks and daily activities into the nightly rate.

Why points people care: both are still Hilton Honors hotels, so you can book them with points. And Hilton says a points booking at its all-inclusive resorts gets the full all-inclusive package with no extra fees. One redemption, room plus food and drinks.

Heads up: the Waldorf goes adults-only (18+) on Jan 10, 2027. The Conrad stays family-friendly and is adding an adults-only area called Ceiba Club.

Which one are you picking, the adults-only Waldorf or the Conrad in Tulum?

Got a few thousand American miles just sitting there? You can finally put them toward a regular ticket.

American now lets you mix cash and miles on aa.com and in the app. Search like normal (don't tick "Redeem miles"), pick your flight, then use the slider at checkout to choose how many miles to use. You need at least 500 miles and a US address on your AAdvantage account.

The catch: it's only for American flights within the lower 48. No basic economy, no Alaska or Hawaii, no international, no partner flights. And if your plans change, you have to cancel and rebook.

Is it a good deal? TPG estimates about 1 cent per mile, which is less than you'd usually get from a normal award. So it's great for clearing out a small balance, but if you're saving for a big trip, book a regular award instead.

What would you do with a leftover stash of miles?

Heads up: that cheap award price might be basic economy.

Delta, JetBlue and Southwest now sell basic economy award tickets, even when you pay with points. American, United and Alaska don't (for now).

Basic usually means no seat pick (one gets assigned for you), later boarding and no upgrades. On Delta and JetBlue, changing or canceling costs a fee, so the usual award flexibility mostly goes away.

The tip: before you transfer points, click into the fare and look for "Basic." Then compare it to the regular main cabin award. Sometimes the extra miles are worth it.

Would you take a basic award to save some miles, or pay up for a real seat?
