Hey there, points people! Today, I'm chatting with Lisa, a student from the Points Accelerator Program.
In this episode we discuss how Lisa was able to upgrade her premium economy flight to business class, her upcoming family trip to Asia in business class, her tactics to filling her points bank, and so much more!
For those looking for a card to experience business class flying on United Polaris, consider the United Explorer Card.
