One of the best things about redeeming travel rewards is strategizing how to get the absolute fattest return per point. Airline miles and hotel points can be worth exponentially more than simply redeeming your rewards for cash back, depending on how you use them.
But did you know that you can get outsize value for your statement credits, too? I used an up-to-$50 travel credit from my Hilton Honors American Express Aspire Card to book almost $100 in flights. Here’s how it worked.
You don’t have to use the full credit each quarter to trigger reimbursement. But it’s important to note that these credits are use-it-or-lose-it; any portion of the credit that goes unredeemed will be forfeited.
