Last week I introduced Upside, a new travel app that aims to disrupt the business travel market by incentivizing travelers to choose options that save their companies money. As a reminder, One Mile at a Time readers who register this week receive a guaranteed $150 in gift cards on any trips booked in 2016, which is potentially a very good deal! The app itself is simple, but as with anything new, there have been quite a few questions, so I figured I'd go through some of the most common. **Will I still earn frequent flyer miles with Upside?** Yes! Upside is trading gift cards for flexibility, so while the app might steer you towards a less expensive flight, you won't be buying a consolidator fare. You can still earn miles on your ticket, just like you normally would. On top of that, you can still leverage your airline elite status -- including potential upgrades.
