It was great to hear Greg on your show. He and Nick are two of the smartest people in this hobby. I have learned a ton of tips from their podcast and blog! I look forward to hearing Nick on your show.
As a beginner, this was a bit overwhelming, but I plan to go back and listen in parts and take notes. As a Lexington native, I definitely laughed at how you played us, but it was true.
Your video is absolutely fantastic. What apps do you recommend to keep track of points from multiple sources and the best flight / hotels deals? Thank you.
@@matheusd.soldatelli6817 for tracking points, AwardWallet is the best (in my opinion$ but it’s not perfect. For keeping track of deals, I like cardpointers (see chrishutchins.com/deals for a discount)
Great Video! Based on all the tools you mentioned if you can pick maybe 1 or 2 Max what do suggest for someone in P1 mode? Not trying to break the bank here and go overboard and pay for every single one of them. I used to love expert flyer until star alliance was removed as it would search and send you alerts for saver awards. Not sure if the tools you mentioned can find savers, or if you need to know what the saver rate is. Thinking it may be best to start with 1 airline tool and 1 hotel tool. Thanks
Great tips! This can be complicated to stay on top of all of the various websites but I would agree that Points Yeah is my current favorite to research flights and see which programs offer points transfer deals to save money. Instead of Flight Connections, I like use user interface better on Flights From. I use it to easily research every route and scheduled flight from every airport. This can be helpful when you are researching flights and figuring out which airlines or routes to use. I have a few others that made my "Ultimate Gear List" but these two are my favorites.
Booking separate legs to get the best deal sounds like a logistical nightmare. Wouldn't you have to leave security, get your bags, re-check on the second leg and go back through security?
Great video, It looks like for experts and geeks, seats.aero is the winner I believe calendar and explore combined is the hoy grail, kinda like google flights for awards. Funny that is these tools become mainstream and awards become crowded, all these tools would lose its effectiveness. Cheers
Greg has been one of the most influential people in our family's life the past 2 years. The trips we have taken will be long-lasting memories forever!
Goldmine of a podcast
I totally agree
This man has changed my life. I religiously listen to the frequent miler podcast.
Thank you so much for this podcast episode! Greg is such a wealth of knowledge and experience!

Thanks. Great in depth video. Might have to watch it twice!! Thanks to Greg for mentioning Queenstown. From a kiwi miles and points hacker.

Without paying for an upgrade version is Point Yeah, does it lock you down to searching within four days only?
My enigma is trying to find Qantas mileage awards using AA points or Avios. I just don't see Qantas awards although they list them with Qantas points.
Nice video
@@FlyandStay-524 thanks!

Do you have a link for aawaze by any chance?
@@FinancialMaintenance yes, they’re all at allthehacks.com/deals
Problem is that we don't have these extensive points systems and cards... 😢
Why use these apps when you can use google fights? Sincere question.
@@susangarrard2753 these are for searching for flights you can book with points/miles while Google flights shows flights you can book with $
