Background on Jonny
Since discovering travel hacking over a year ago, we have become OBSESSED with learning everything we possibly can about earning and redeeming miles & points for upgraded VIP travel. Over the course of just 12 months, we collected over one million points without ever stepping foot on a plane or checking into a hotel.
We recently returned home from Europe on a Lufthansa flight in business class. Our seats were located in the upper deck of a Boeing 747-8. Complete with champagne, gourmet meals and lie-flat seats.
Our out-of-pocket cost for this flight was just $120 in taxes and fees per person. Pretty amazing, right?
In addition, while in Paris for four nights, we stayed on the 33rd floor of a beautiful hotel that offered a breathtaking view of the Eiffel Tower from the window of our room. We also had complimentary breakfast, snacks all day long and hors d’ouerves, wine and beer each evening. Total out of pocket cost for all four nights? $25 for taxes and fees. That’s it. Seriously.
Upgraded travel without spending a fortune really IS possible. People like you and me are doing this every, single day.

Steve Job's Quote:
“You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something — your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.”
- Steve Jobs [Stanford commencement speech, June 2005]
Victor Frankl
"Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of human freedoms - to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances - to choose one's own way."
- Viktor Frankl, Author of "Man's Search for Meaning" & Holocost survivor
Serenity Prayer
"God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can; and the wisdom to know the difference."
