Ep. 105: Getting the Most out of your Delta SkyMiles with Dawit (@just_da_wit)


Listen Later

Today we are chatting with Dawit (@just_da_wit) a first-year emergency medicine resident and travel enthusiast. We discuss Dawit's journey into travel, his passion for points and miles, and his strategies for maximizing travel experiences through loyalty programs like Delta SkyMiles and Hyatt, creative ways to earn and burn points, the importance of flexibility in travel planning, and the value of community support in finding travel deals. Dawit shares insights on outdoor adventures and how he plans his trips around hiking and exploring nature. In this episode, you will learn:

  • Time is your most valuable asset when traveling.
  • Creative strategies are essential for maximizing SkyMiles.
  • Flash sales can provide incredible value for flights.
  • Earning Delta status requires strategic planning and flying.
  • Positioning flights can lead to better deals.
  • Flexibility in travel planning opens up more opportunities.
  • Hyatt is my preferred hotel loyalty program.
  • Community support is invaluable in the travel world.
  • ...and more!
