Planning Trips to Hawaii, India, and Thailand with Sarthak | Ep 169

(Disclaimer: Click 'more' to see ad disclosure)

Hey there, points people! Today, I'm chatting with Sarthak, a student from the Points Accelerator Program.

In this episode we dive into strategies to get even more points aside from just opening cards, little known ways to book Qatar Airways QSuites, saving tens of thousands of dollars on luxury travel and so much more!

For those diving deeper into the world of points and miles, consider the Chase Sapphire Preferred Card. It's a staple for seasoned and new travelers alike.
