Why I bought hotel points to save money on a flight

Have you ever found the perfect airline redemption but come up short on the required points and miles, even after transferring credit card points?

That was the situation I found myself in when trying to book an Emirates Skywards award recently, but I found a work-around that you might not expect.

I ended up purchasing hotel points to solve my problem. And, thanks to a promotion to buy points, doing so cost less than buying airline miles directly, allowing me to book the exact flights I wanted for a fraction of the cash price.

A great solo travel tip spotted this week on The Points Guy Articles.
