How to earn enough miles to visit Europe for $59 in 90 days or less.

By James Marcus

Most airlines use zones for reward travel, Europe* is 60,000 miles from

ANYWHERE in the USA

* UK is 60,000 miles but the airport taxes are $600!

1. Join American AAdvantage

American is the best option for International travel if you live in Phoenix, they are a OneWorld partner and have many International

carriers to use miles.

2. Open the AA Citi Select Credit Card to get 50,000 free miles,

plus 1 mile per $1 spent on the card

3. Spend a total $10,000 on the card in the first 90 days.

Spend doesn’t mean rack up a balance!

Use the card for normal purchases / bills / rent and make 5-6 payments per month,

always paying off the balance. Use it like a debt card.

Never spend more than you have in your checking account.

Interest is only charged if you revolve a balance, since you pay off the balance as you go, you’ll

get charged $0 interest.

After 90 days, you’ll have the 60,000 miles you need to fly to

Europe for $59.

This is one way to do it, it’s the fastest by far and cost $0

(besides the $59, which are airport taxes)
