    Now many airlines change the way they award their loyal members. Their mileage rewards and member status are based on how much you spend per year, not the total of mileages you fly.

      B WB Look at Polaris by United. Going from worst bisness class in the US to the best. Going from a below average US airline to above average.

    • @G-546
      @G-546 3 роки тому

      CarLover21 that is the first class United introduced on their 747s in the 1990s. The Iconic United Airlines 747s were retired in 2017. United airlines 747s were one of the most iconic planes in avaition with their upper level lounge in the 1970s and 80s. When United got the 747-400 in the 90s(at the time the brand new 747 varient) United took the lounge out and introduced lie flat first class seats. When United retired the 747 their new planes had the new Polaris Bisness class instead. The Polaris class has been added to most United planes that fly flights over 6 hours.

    Guess I'm not so strange now. I've taken a local rental car because I was a few days short of the Executive level at National Car Rental. I did take the car on a trip, but was only 2 of the 5 days I had it. I've never "flown" anywhere just to get miles....I think that is a little out there. But the credit car thing? Sure, it can be done.

    • @Stamps600
      @Stamps600 9 років тому +17

      Not only love flying but your life revolves around first class seats. Basically that guy switched hotels each night to get a first class ticket. Basically 2 to 3 hours per a day of vacation was wasted checking in and out of a hotel every day.
      3:10 The guy who spent over 2 days in an airport and airplane alone is just weird. Even if all those flights were first class which I am 99% sure it was not, I still wouldn't do it.

    • @nepalihercules
      @nepalihercules 7 років тому +1

      how do you spend 3 hours checking in a hotel? its not a fucking airport? and do you really need to be at disney land for 20 hours because you paid for a days pass?

      Good point. It takes all kinds to make the world. I personally wouldn't go to the extreme tactics.. However, I know people who only dream of domestic/foreign travel and who grew up with modest means. If they find an honest way to do it using one of these methods, best of luck.

    The best way to fly first class for free is to have your lover pay for it... Ohh you also get the whole package for free from spa treatments and dinners. All for free.

    Last year, I bought a tablet using frequent flyer miles. There were only a few items available to be purchased, among those that I considered purchasing using miles. It seems that the # of miles required is still high. That said, on a trip from Edmonton back to Toronto, I did get to fly in business class for just a few hundred bucks more. I do like to fly in comfort if possible, as long as the price is reasonable.

      Yes it is true, I’m on a group called 10xtravel look them up on google, there are stories almost everyday on how people are booking business or first class with just sign up bonuses
      Also they post error fares or just cheap economy flights, I got one from San Diego to Madrid for 412 with checked bags and will be getting frequent flier miles

  • @cassandraglowacki7523
    @cassandraglowacki7523 7 років тому +6

    This is bullcrap. You can get the same miles with your debit card that's hooked up into your checking account. You don't need a credit card to get FF miles now. You just register your debit card with your FF account. I went to St. Maarten, Mexico and Aruba using my American FF miles that I got with my debit card. Dining, buying online, doing online surveys, all these give miles now plus more.

    • @goo5e785
      @goo5e785 7 років тому +2

      Cassandra Glowacki Think before you type dumbass. The sign up bonus which gets you a TON of miles is what's important and why people like us apply for so many.

    • @K2_Wellness
      @K2_Wellness 7 років тому +1

      and other perks like free travel ins, no foreign trans. fees, free checked bag, more bonus miles for spending over certain amt, etc, depending on which travel card once uses. There's a big savings -- if you travel frequently.
