Anniversaries

A big anniversary — a 10th, a 25th, a golden 50th — calls for a trip that matches the occasion. And because anniversaries come with flexible dates and a celebration to plan, they’re perfectly suited to funding that trip with points. The dinner, the party, the travel itself, all earn toward a redemption worthy of the year.

Here’s how to turn the celebration into the getaway.

Flexible dates are a gift

Anniversaries aren’t locked to a single season, so you can choose the dates with the best award availability — which means easier flight redemptions and better point prices. That flexibility is one of the most valuable things you can have when booking on points.

The celebration spend earns

A celebration dinner or party plus the travel is card-payable spend you can concentrate onto one bonus card sized to your budget. Transferable points then redeem beautifully for a romantic destination.

Redeem for the landmark

A landmark year deserves a landmark redemption — a suite, business class, a second honeymoon. If you’re also renewing vows, bundle the two for an even bigger redemption. Use an FX-fee-free card abroad, mind travel protections, and time the spend to any deposits.
