Traveling to South Africa on Points with Kyle and Kenz Parks | Ep 107
(Disclaimer: Click 'more' to see ad disclosure)
Kyle and Kenz from @adventure_parks have been married for over four years now. During that time, they have traveled to more than a dozen different countries while experiencing luxurious business and first class cabins and staying at incredible hotels and resorts - all almost exclusively with points and miles. They love all sorts of travel - from tropical island escapes to outdoor hiking adventures to immersive cultural experiences.
In this episode, Kyle, Kenz, and I talk about their incredible trip to South Africa! We’re talking flights, hotels, excursions, and how to do these types of trips if your main airport is a small airport and you have to plan around school schedules when you travel.
One of the products we discuss in this episode is QSuites, which is a bucket list flight for many points and miles people. One of the best ways to book this product is with American Airlines miles, and currently the only flexible points currency that transfers to American Airlines is Bilt. If you’re looking for a no annual fee card that transfers to many different airlines and hotels, has fun and unique perks like giving away airline status on occasion, and even lets you earn points on rent, check out the Bilt card. I’m a senior advisor for their loyalty program, and am so excited about all the cool features the card comes with!

Points and Miles Tips for Large Families with Jerod Morales | Ep 106
(Disclaimer: Click 'more' to see ad disclosure)
Jerod Morales from @letsgotraveldad and his wife have 4 children - all boys! They both love travel and having a large family. He has a day job in IT and helps his wife with a thriving health and wellness coaching business. Jerod is also one of the moderators of the Award Travel 101 and 201 Facebook groups, as well as the Travel Grumps group...a place to vent about the hard moments of traveling. He recently started writing for the AwardWallet blog, and he writes about travel for East Side Magazine in Austin, TX.
In this episode, Jerod and I discuss how larger families can make points and miles work for them – whether it’s how to find 6 award seats on the same plane, saving on booking multiple rooms, or other tips and tricks that make travel easier when you have 4 kids in tow!
If you have a large family, food costs at the airport can add up, but the Capital One Venture X can help. With the Capital One Venture X, you can add your spouse or significant other as an authorized user, and you can each bring two guests into airport lounges covered by the Venture X for free! That means all 6 of you can enter the lounge and have unlimited food, all through one credit card!

Beginner Award Redemptions with Areli Hobbs | Ep 105
(Disclaimer: Click 'more' to see ad disclosure)
Areli Hobbs from @yesto_travel is the oldest child of a Mexican immigrant family born with the desire to travel the world. Now as a millennial woman in her 30s she is ready to fulfill the travel dreams she never thought possible, all thanks to leveraging credit card points. Areli works a regular 9-5 and supports her husband while he finishes college and she plans to go back to school herself to be a Registered Nurse. In her first year of points and miles she has already been on three trips using points all while coordinating school schedules and a full time job.
In this episode, Areli and I discuss the illusion of the internet when it comes to points and miles. A lot of the accounts you see online do points as their full time job, or they are working towards that, and the redemptions you see on your Instagram might feel really out of reach. This episode is to remind you that for every crazy Instagrammable redemption you see, there are hundreds of redemptions where someone is just starting out and saving hundreds instead of thousands of dollars, and that is just as magical as a $20k first class flight.
If you are just getting started with points and miles, one of the most popular starter card combinations is the Chase Trifecta, which includes the Chase Sapphire Preferred, Chase Freedom Flex, and Chase Freedom Unlimited.

Deep Dives into Marriott Strategies with Oli from @olitravelgeek | Ep 104
(Disclaimer: Click 'more' to see ad disclosure)
Oli from @olitravelgeek is a points enthusiast based out of London. He first got a taste of the good life through an unexpected upgrade to business class on Emirates. Looking for a way to get back into business class, he started collecting points in 2017 with his wife and they haven't looked back since. Each year they collect over 1m points between the two of them, which is quite an achievement given how much more challenging it is to collect points in the UK compared to the US.
In this episode, Oli and I discuss some deeper strategies for earning and redeeming points with Marriott, especially if you are limited with how many points you can earn via credit card sign-ups. We also discuss some aspirational Marriott properties.
If you’re looking to dive deep with Marriott and you’re based in the US, check out the American Express Marriott Bonvoy Brilliant. They just upped the perks and now you get automatic platinum status with this card, which means you get free breakfast, plus a bunch of other perks!
Remember, if you decide to apply for the Marriott Bonvoy Brilliant or any other card, never apply directly through Google – always use a friend or creator’s referral link.

(Disclaimer: Click 'more' to see ad disclosure)
Maria Cariza from @followingmaria is a travel content creator that worked in the travel industry. As she transitioned out, she still wanted to travel frequently, so she started travel hacking.
Maria is also a resident of Las Vegas, and so in this episode, Maria and I dive into how Las Vegas is ground zero for travel tricks. We’re talking about cheap mattress runs, how to get free nights and food and entertainment, status matching, and so much more!
Along with many of the tricks we discuss in today’s episode, one of my favorite tricks in Las Vegas is the ability to do cheap or free mattress runs to easily get Hyatt status. If you’re looking to build status with Hyatt, the World of Hyatt card comes with automatic Discoverist status and 5 elite nights towards higher tier status as well.

How to Fly to Australia on Points with Immanuel Debeer | Ep 102
(Disclaimer: Click 'more' to see ad disclosure)
Immanuel Debeer of @flighthacks is originally from Belgium and now lives in Perth Australia where he runs Flight Hacks as a full-time blogger. He is also the co-founder of a bill payment platform in Australia called Frequent Pay which allows business customers to pay anyone using their reward credit card.
In this episode, Immanuel and I discuss the best ways to fly between the United States and Australia on points, and the unique challenges that often make these routes difficult. We will be discussing routes, airline products, and of course, how to do it all on points.
One of the airlines most associated with Australia is Qantas Airlines, and pretty much everyone other than Chase transfers points there. You can use American Express, Citi, or Capital One. With these currencies, some of the most popular cards to use for points and miles are the Amex Gold, Citi Premier, and Capital One Venture X.

Visiting Morocco on Points with Sierra Smith | Ep 101
(Disclaimer: Click 'more' to see ad disclosure)
Sierra Smith from @highsierrapoints is an aerospace engineer, points/miles enthusiast, dog mom, wife, and avid traveler. She loves creating friendly, digestible content around credit cards and their lesser-known benefits to help make travel more accessible to those who may not otherwise have the means. Her goal is to create an understanding that responsible credit card usage can help you travel the world just by using the right card on your regular expenses.
In this episode, Sierra and I dive into her honeymoon trip to Morocco – we are talking about what she flew, where she stayed, what she ate, and of course, how you can do all of this while leveraging the wonderful world of points and miles.
As you’ll hear in this episode, Morocco was also my first points redemption, and it was kind of by accident. If you’re just getting started with points and miles, I would recommend checking out the Chase Sapphire Preferred, which is the most popular credit card for those looking to get started with points and miles.
Remember, if you decide to apply for the Chase Sapphire Preferred or any other card, never apply directly through Google – always use a friend or creator’s referral link.

(Disclaimer: Click 'more' to see ad disclosure)
Albert Hsieh from @jetalbert is a senior marketing professional and experienced brand strategist with a focus on global brand management, marketing, and commercial strategizing in the aviation industry. He has experience working in JetBlue, China Airlines, the private jet company XOJet, and is the founder of FoxTrot Dash, a fin-tech company that provides recommendations on the best ways to use your points and miles.
In this episode, Albert and I discuss when to use cash vs. points on a booking, different strategies for earning points, and how to decide what to do with your hard-earned points so you don’t go into analysis paralysis.
If you are new to points and miles, all of this can seem overwhelming. If you’re looking for a no-fee starter card that lets you earn 5x on special rotating categories each month, check out the Chase Freedom Flex. Additionally, if you combine the points with a Chase Sapphire account, you can use all of the combined points for travel to get a higher value out of each point.
Remember, if you decide to apply for Chase cards or any other card, never apply directly through Google – always use a friend or creator’s referral link.

Traveling through Puerto Rico with Points with Jen Ruiz | Ep 99
(Disclaimer: Click 'more' to see ad disclosure)
Note: I apologize in advance that the sound gets a little warbly in some places here -- my podcast editor did the best he could, but the wifi kept cutting out in Puerto Rico which messed with our audio.
Jen Ruiz from @jenonajetplane is a lawyer turned full-time travel writer and author. She is a 5-time Amazon bestseller, 3-time TEDx speaker and 2-time award winning travel journalist. She documents her adventures on her website, Jen on a Jet Plane.
In this episode, Jen and I discuss how to use points and miles to travel to and within Puerto Rico, where she currently resides!
This episode is particularly special to me because I actually had my destination wedding in Puerto Rico years ago before I knew about points and miles. We got married in a boutique hotel and one of the most popular ways to book boutique hotels on points is by using Capital One miles. If you are looking for more upgraded travel experiences, check out the Capital One Venture X which comes with lounge access, a $300 travel credit to use through the portal, top tier rental car status with Hertz, and more.
Remember, please never ever apply for a credit card through Google. Always use a friend or creator’s links to support them.
