Episode 5: Half Way There
Manage episode 244642058 series 2501931
In the fifth episode of Making A Points Millionaire, we continue the journey of taking a points and miles novice from zero to a million points/miles in one year. This podcast concentrates on financial literacy, strategy, and skills needed to learn how to take on “The Hobby” that has brought so many people affordable travel and experiences.
The Agenda:
- Review of episode 4 assignment: SUCCESS! Current status after two months: 509,000 points/miles
- Strategies for finding award flights to spend your miles on
- Fare Codes/Inventory
- Positioning flights
- Being flexible
- Learn the hubs
- Time it right – 331 days in advance is a magic number
- Trip Report – Oahu
- HOMEWORK: Barclays Business Aviator card and CitiBusiness Aadvantage Platinum Select – potentially 135k American Airlines miles
The only payment we ever ask is to use our referral link if you choose to participate and get your own Chase Sapphire Preferred card, or this referral link for the Marriott Bonvoy Boundless card. We only use links that offer you the best available offer, which at this time is 60k uber valuable Chase Ultimate Rewards points after spending $4k in three months, or 3 free nights (valued at 105k points, 35k per night) with Marriott Bonvoy after $3k in spend. For the Bonvoy link, note that there is a public 75k point offer which is smaller in total potential value, but allows you to chase nights at higher tier aspirational hotels if that is more valuable for you. We checked our referral link for the American Express Surpass and it offers 5k less points than the public offer of 130k points.
Feel free to ask me any questions you have on points/miles on Twitter via @hjpreller or e-mail pointsmillionaire@gmail.com
