Show Notes

Freddy Lansky from @pointspanda is the CEO and owner of Points Panda, an award travel consultancy and points blog with a US airline news focus. He’s flown first class with Korean Air, Cathay Pacific, Lufthansa, British Airways and others. His other hobbies include surfing, hiking, and studying foreign languages. Freddy is from Atlanta, Georgia and has called Mexico City his home base since 2015.

In this episode, Freddy and I discuss some of the best routes for flying in and around Latin America, whether you’re looking to do a short haul from Atlanta to Mexico city or a long haul in business class all the way to South America.

One of the main transfer partners we discuss in this episode is Avianca LifeMiles, which is great for their rewards program, but not necessarily great for their hard product airplanes. You can transfer points from American Express, Capital One, Citi, and Marriott Bonvoy into Avianca’s rewards program. Some of the most popular cards with each of these programs is the Amex Gold, Capital One Venture X, and Citi premier. If you’d like to apply to for any of these cards, please be sure you don’t apply through Google, but rather use a friend or creator’s referral or affiliate link.
