Guru’s Wrap-up
Airline shopping portals are useful because they let you earn frequent flyer miles or points on everyday purchases without flying and without spending anything extra.
When you start your shopping trip through a portal, the airline tracks your purchase with the retailer and rewards you with bonus miles as outlined above. For portals that have in-store offers, you just have to use a linked card.
These miles can stack with rewards from your credit card, helping you accumulate points faster for future flights, upgrades, or travel perks. However, it’s always a good idea to check cash back rate from other portals as well.
