But she pieced together the trip with cheap award tickets to London on Virgin Atlantic, then from London to Prague on British Airways. On the way back, she used miles to fly to Philadelphia, rather than New York City, where she’s based. “We had a great trip. It’s one of our most favorite memories together,” says Sills-Dellegrazie, founder of the travel blog The Globetrotting Teacher. … [Read more...] about How to Snag Credit Card Rewards Flights in Peak Season
