Description

Are you getting the most value from your travel rewards, or are you just chasing points?

For some travellers, it's flying business class for less. For others, it's avoiding long layovers, booking direct flights, or simply spending less time figuring out how to use their rewards.

In this episode of Stacked, Jennifer LaForge sits down with Anshul Singh, Founder and CEO of Points Miles and Bling, to explore the evolving world of travel loyalty programs, rewards, and what value really means to today's travellers.

Drawing on nearly two decades of experience in the travel and loyalty space, Anshul shares how airline and hotel rewards programs are changing, why earning more points doesn't always mean getting more value, and how brands are using experiences and emotional connections to build lasting customer loyalty.

They discuss the psychology behind points and rewards, the rise of dynamic pricing, why simplicity matters just as much as maximizing benefits, and how savvy travellers can take advantage of holiday promotions, Black Friday deals, and Travel Tuesday without getting caught up in offers they don't need.

The conversation also explores how different travellers define value, why the best redemption isn't always the one with the biggest savings, and how understanding your own priorities can lead to smarter decisions.

Whether you're a frequent flyer, a points enthusiast, a loyalty professional, or someone looking to make your next vacation more rewarding, this episode offers practical insights into getting more from your travel rewards and recognizing what truly matters.
