Today’s guest, Gary Leff, is one of the foremost experts in the field of miles, points, and frequent business travel, a topic he has covered since 2002. His website View From The Wing (“Thought Leader In Travel”) is one of the leading sources for ‘scoop and details about the travel loyalty world. Co-founder of the frequent flyer community, InsideFlyer.com and named one of the “World’s Top Travel Experts” by Conde’ Nast Traveler, Gary has been a guest on most major news media, profiled in several top print publications, and published broadly on the topic of consumer loyalty. Gary has also been called “sagacious” by legendary business travel writer Joe Brancatelli and “the godfather of the [frequent flyer] hobby” in Rolling Stone. In today’s SEASON FINALE episode, Gary shares his insight with us on capacity versus demand and the incredible deals we have seen during the pandemic. Find out which deals to take advantage of (and how), which loyalty or rewards programs you should sign up for if you are a newbie, and hear Gary’s predictions for the inevitable upcoming devaluations as travel increases post-COVID.  We also talk about the history of Stardust, one of Michael’s favorite Vegas properties, and the world’s longest and shortest commercial flights. Tune in today to learn how to get more bang for your buck and enjoy your loyalty rewards in the near term! Want to contact us or share something?
