Welcome to episode 117 of The Journey Is the Reward!
We've got a full manifest for this episode. First up, we're taking on some listener feedback from Terrific Tanya. She's been listening to Chris Hutchins on the Tim Ferriss Show and says we're both right about points versus cash back. Sorry, Tanya, you can't be a straddler on this one! Just like you can't say you love both Airbus and Boeing equally, you've got to pick a side—Team Points or Team Cash Back.
As always, our listeners are the real experts on this crew, so keep those flight plans coming to [email protected].
Then, we’re getting into the ground-level drama. Listener Lu wants to know about the new technology American Airlines is using to fight the "gate lice" who try to cut the line and board before their group is called. It's a real pet peeve of ours, so you know we have some strong opinions on this one.
For our main segment, we're climbing to cruising altitude with our guest, Clint Henderson, from The Points Guy. We'll chat about his journey to becoming the managing editor, the tools he uses to maximize his points, and find out what team he's on. Though, as you might guess from his job, he’s firmly Team Points.
And as always, our ears are blessed by the utterly soul-stirring, goosebump-inducing sounds of the Madalitso Youth Choir! Their Welcome and Goodbye songs, recorded straight from the Royal Livingston Hotel in Zambia, are pure magic.
