This week, we begin with some less than thrilling news in the points and miles world. We love to keep you up to date but it's not always fun to share. THEN- we’re pulling back the curtain on how a trip actually comes together — from that first spark of inspiration to locking in the flights. It started with an Instagram video, a great transfer bonus, and some unbelievable business class redemptions, and by the end of the day, we had a surprise trip booked.We walk through the entire process of figuring out where to go, how to get home, what the taxes and fees really looked like, and how we turned a spur-of-the-moment idea into a birthday trip of a lifetime.If you’ve ever wanted to see what it looks like to build a trip with points in real time — the thought process, the strategy, and the excitement — this episode is for you.Find Us On OnlineMary Ellen | JoFacebook GroupWonderland On Points BlogAffiliate LinksRakuten- Mary Ellen (Get 5000 AMEX POINTS)Rakuten- Joanna (Get 5000 AMEX POINTS)Comfrt Hoodie 15% OFF!Chase/Capital One/Amex Card Links30% off the CardPointers subscription!FlyKitt- the BEST Jet Lag Solution!Tripiamo Driving TutorialsOur Favorite Travel NecessitiesWe receive a small commission when you choose to use any of our links to purchase your products or apply for your cards!
