#113 Points, Miles, and Free Flights: Travel Hacking for Beginners That Actually Works (with Ben Komenkul)

Season 1 Episode 113

Travel hacking sounds complicated—points, miles, credit cards... where do you even start? In this episode, I’m joined by Ben from Ben’s Big Deal, a seasoned travel hacker who breaks it all down in a way that’s clear, doable, and perfect for beginners.

We cover which credit cards to start with, how to actually use points to fly for free (yes, really), and the common mistakes that cost people thousands. Whether you’re planning a move abroad or just want to stop overpaying for travel, this episode is packed with practical tips to help you use your spending power smarter—not harder.

Spoiler: This isn’t just for finance bros or frequent flyers. It’s for anyone who wants to travel more and spend less.

**Of course Ben and I agree that this is the travel card with the best benefits! Click for my affiliate link:
