I travel for a living. On this site, I take the mystery out of frequent-flyer programs & flying worldwide during COVID.

Years of non-stop travel for work and fun have taught me the tips, tricks and details of frequent-flyer mileage programs; I've built this site to share what I've learned, and help you get great value out of your frequent-flyer miles. 

I'm not selling a subscription, an e-book, or membership in a secret program.

The information's all here, and it's all free.
