Travel Party of 5 | Points & Miles for Family Travel

Do you struggle to understand how people travel using points and miles from credit cards? It can be easy to waste a lot of time learning travel hacking on your own, especially if you find it complex and confusing.

Let us pull back the curtain and show you how you can maximize money you're already spending to earn enough credit card points and miles to travel with your family for nearly free.

We've used credit card points and miles to take our family of 5 on trips to places like Costa Rica, San Diego, Disneyland, Oceanside, NYC, Washington DC, Hawaii, and next year we have already booked Paris, Spain and Japan!

Using credit card points and miles (often called travel hacking) doesn't have to be overwhelming or take a ton of time, and we can show you how.

Can you earn a lot of points and miles without opening up multiple credit cards? Only if you have a really high amount of spend each month. For people with larger families, opening new cards is the easiest and fastest way to earn enough points and miles to take a couple of really low cost (but not low budget) family vacations every year!

If you want to learn ways to help you and your family travel more affordably using credit card points, this show is for you.

Thanks for finding our podcast! We are a family of 5 who does most of our travel using points and miles and we share how we leverage credit card offers to earn a ton of points/miles so we can afford travel as a larger family.

Want to use credit card points and miles to visit Paris?!?! In this episode, join us as we recount our recent 2-day adventure in the City of Lights! Despite the rain, we embraced the charm and beauty of this iconic city, trying to make the best of it despite the clouds.

Our journey began with a delightful dinner at Girafe, but sadly it was raining so our Eiffel Tower views were scarce indoors.

Day 2 began with a walking food tour, where we indulged in delectable French cuisine and discovered hidden culinary gems. This food tour (linked below) truly felt like we were visiting a Parisian market with a french friend. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

Of course, no trip to Paris would be complete without a visit to the Eiffel Tower, where we braved the weather to experience the breathtaking views. Even in the rain, she is beautiful. Then we grabbed crepes and coffee near Notre Dame.

On our third day we ventured out of the city for an exhilarating bike tour of Versailles, pedaling through the grandeur of the palace grounds and soaking in the rich history.

The standout for dinner was Le Relais de L'Entrecote for their infamous steak frites.

For a hotel, we stayed at the Hyatt Regency Etoile for zero dollars, all thanks to our use of points and miles. Tune in to hear our tips on how to make the most of your points for a memorable stay in Paris, rain or shine.
