30. Accessible Family Travel on Points with Wonders Within Reach

Saison 1 · Épisode 30

lundi 17 juin 2024 • Durée 01:08:20

In perhaps our most important and most meaningful episode yet, this week we sat down to chat with Jennifer Allen from @Wonders_Within_Reach about what accessible travel and inclusion looks like for those with disabilities. As a Spina Bifida mom, Jennifer is no stranger to a travel world that is often not created with accessibility in mind. She has dedicated her life to finding accessible options for all, and sharing her experiences with others. We talk about their journey using credit card points and miles to help navigate the world of adoption, as well as many tips and tricks to make travel easier for those with both visible and invisible disabilities. Jennifer shares some of her family’s experiences with international travel where the kindness of strangers has been paramount to the success of the trips. We hope to bring awareness to the challenges travelers with disabilities face, share a perspective that not everyone considers, and empower individuals with differing abilities (and their families) to get out and see the world. We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we loved recording it!

29. AMEX Gold Deep Dive

Saison 1 · Épisode 29

lundi 10 juin 2024 • Durée 01:04:06

Finally the LONG awaited deep dive into the American Express Gold card. This card is a travel hacking staple for many reasons and now it's time to tell you why we love this card and what benefits it can bring to your points and miles strategy. Multipliers like 4x points on groceries and restaurants go a long, especially for large families with lots of mouths to feed. In combination with stacking opportunities using the Rakuten shopping portal, the Amex Gold racks up points quickly. While the annual fee may scare some, we dive into the many ways to offset it such taking advantage of Uber Eats and Grub Hub credits, ensuring you're getting more benefit from your card than fees. IF you already have an Amex Gold card, this episode is still for you! You may learn about benefits and hacks you didn't know existed! Make sure you're getting the most out of your relationship with American Express!

24. Using Status in the Game of Points and Miles: Marriott, American Airlines and More With TravelMoreCon Creator @AshleyGetsAround

Saison 1 · Épisode 24

lundi 6 mai 2024 • Durée 01:10:50

In this episode we sit down with Ashley Peterson, founder of Ashley Gets Around and the TravelMore Conference. We dive into why she thinks status is even more valuable than credit card sign up bonuses! Learn about saving money on checked bags and upgrades with American Airlines, as well as knowing your status benefits and how to maximize them at Marriott Hotels. We were fascinated to hear all about her transition from her previous career to becoming the creator of the only female-owned business class deals list of its size. If you are planning to attend TravelMore Conference like we are, you are going to LOVE hearing from this iconic boss-lady! In addition, we also chat about planning a trip to the Hyatt Baha Mar in the Bahamas.

EDIT***- timestamp- 35 minutes in: We says that you can use Marriott free night certificates in combination with the 5th night free! This is actually incorrect! 5th night free CAN be used on award nights but not with free night certs!
