  • Going to add this to the best videos of 2023 on youtube. This really is informative, great info. Myself, as a European Plebeian, do not get to fly often, also we do not get those credit cards benefits. But this could make alot of sense to anyone with access to credit cards, or someone in the US of A. Even for me, there could be something to learn here.

    Missed watching your inspiring videos, Marina❤️

    Marina I can’t keep this, the red lips on thumbnail is something 😍
  • Thank you Marina! Last year I discovered completely by CHANCE that I could upgrade at the counter, I was 6 months pregnant flying 13 hour flight NYC to Dubai with Emirates. I missed out on the online offer to upgrade for only $900 additional but SO glad I just took a chance & asked at the counter at the airport if they still had the offer and I was shocked that I could upgrade for only $1,050 to business class that cost $10K+ if I had purchased business class to start with. It was SO worth it. Can't believe I've had chase sapphire for YEARS but only ever booked travel through chase website thinking I was getting the best deal haha I can't wait to use your tips here to fly business again & again. Thanks a ton for this info.
  • I won't get tired of repeating the fact that the video "Business class on Lufthansa" was my first Marina's video. Since that time and that video I've been following her. Love, adore, admire❤
  • The Lufthansa business class video was the first video I watched on your channel. Your enthousiasm was inspiring and I'm glad to see that you are keeping up with your miles. Very motivating content :))
  • Great video as always Thank you so much for useful videos Thank you so much
  • @zyryqurty-dk8wy
    Omg, it's really very interesting and important information, thanks a lot.
  • Alaska has better redemptions than any other american airlines. Only issue is their partners are only mariott bonvoy and alaska's own credit card. I got a flight to New zealand from SFO for just 55,000 miles + 61$ on alaska using miles for business class. Much cheaper than united.

    I have the same credit card Chase Sapphire and am trying to figure out how to use the points. Thanks for the video.
  • Marina, have you ever been to Brazil? Im your fan, i love your videos❤
  • @kurnosik_sonya
    Марина, получается вы просто возвращаете кеш на эту карту, после покупки?
  • @rahilahmad9658
    Really well explained, always love your transparency about how much you earn and spend.❤

    Even before you sign up for a card, the first question you should ask yourself is whether you will pay off the balance completely each month. If not, read what the interest rate and grace period. Many of these cards are 21% or more and 21 days. So thats how people end up with tens of thousands in credit card debt even if they are quite well paid.
