Fantastic rundown! Learning how to use points & miles to book directly into Business or 1st Class can be really rewarding 😃✈️
Like the video. That's exactly what we do. In 2021 it was easier to get upgraded to 1st. Less people traveled. We got upgraded to 1st 4/8 flights. Now in 2022 more business people are traveling so it's harder for free upgrades. Hoping for ine in 3 weeks. 1st looks half full.
So i watched a few of your videos, and i love the idea of building up my points for some truly exceptional travels around the world. I'm just wondering how far out is too early to start working on building up the points? I don't have any definitive travel plans for the next 5 years, but after that i'm close to retirement and want to be ready to go. How far in advance do you guys recommend to concentrate on accumulating points? (i currently get all my points as cashback for various categories (3% - 6%)
Great video.. but the camera shake is a bit too much/nauseating imho
Agree. And the music is too loud…
"its actually complete nonsense" 😭😂
I just buy first class all the time.
I don’t use credit cards
In April 2024 we are going to Italy 🇮🇹 for a month .cost 36,000
Agree with Mark Reese, and TPG should release more helpful video tips with even more examples of how to do so besides those articles on their website 🙂🛫🛬
