I've found ExpertFlyer to be very useful when searching for FF/award tickets. It was recommended on FlyerTalk. A lot of the airlines intentionally make it difficult to search for award flights and this is an independent search that's much more flexible. Like 7 day ranges instead of single day. Things like that.

It's not free ($10/month), but compared to the cost of the tickets, I think it's worth it to sign up when you need it.

Any good resources for planning US road trips? It’s hard to tell which smaller towns are worth visiting and which are dull, and which roads are scenic and worth a longer trip over the fastest route.

Google is worthless because these searches have been optimized for with junk content.

Maybe books?

I think Lonely Planet used to be going for the “a bus dropped me off in some random town, where can I stay or eat” thing pre internet. Might still be helpful in foreign country I guess.

I’ll check out travel guides though, looking through them in a good bookstore seems fairly efficient vs buying online.
