Course 3: Credit Cards
Credit cards are the key to maximising your points! They make it possible to earn hundreds of thousands of frequent flyer points each year without flying, and at a very low marginal cost. This course explains how to maximise your points with credit cards, including sign-up bonus point offers, and compares Australian credit cards & their rewards programs.
Course 4: Buy Points
Buying frequent flyer points can be a lucrative way to book Business or First Class tickets at a fraction of the retail airfare! The trick is to buy points at a discount, then to find the sweet spots in airline award charts to redeem for the maximum value. As well as buying Qantas & Velocity points, this course explains how to game the system with 8 overseas frequent flyer programs.
Course 5: Redeem Points
Redeeming frequent flyer points is easy. Redeeming point effectively for reward flights can be much harder because award availability is limited by airlines. In this course, learn how to easily book award flights and search for award availability using airline websites and specialised tools. This course includes many video demonstrations.
Course 6: Upgrade 101
