New to Points and Miles?

Welcome! I’ve put together some content that clearly and simply explains how to get into  points and miles.

Hopefully this website will introduce you to a world of free travel and break everything down for those who are just beginning. Consider it a warm introduction that won’t overwhelm you.

airplane-list You are new to collecting points and miles

airplane-list You have a particular travel goal already in mind

airplane-list  You have decent to excellent credit, and you’re willing to either improve it or use it directly for your travel goals

airplane-list You’re willing to put in minimal time and effort for a huge reward (who isn’t?)

OK, ready now? Follow the links below to jump in.
