It's worth explicitly stating that you (often?) don't get hotel rewards when your stays are booked through a third party. This isn't the case with airline mile

This isn't the case with airline miles; you get them either way, it seems. But there are often other benefits (eg, you get 5x miles if you book with your airline credit card directly through the airline).
- scarface_74 2y agoThat’s true. The issue with airlines is that if you have to make any changes, it’s harder and in the case of st least AA, they charge a fee when you change a flight that was booked through a third party portal that would be free if you book directly.
- varjag 2y agoThird parties often have their own fairly reasonable reward systems. And you are not tied down to a specific chain.
