Hey Credit Warriors, now in this video I am going to go through in detail the credit card strategy that has got me over $23,000 worth of free travel over the past few years. So very quickly for those of you that are new, yes you can get a credit card, earn points, hotel free nights and other rewards from that credit card and use those to take flights and stay in hotels for free. I know, its amazing. And if you like the sound of that why not subscribe so you can become a credit card travel hacker and get 10s of thousands of dollars worth of free travel too.
Now credit card points have got me free trips to Cancun, The Cayman Islands, Japan, Taiwan, the UK, and this all comes from following a strategy that you can follow too. I will go through all the luxury travel redemptions i have done and how much they were worth later in the video but first let’s look at my strategy in earning points and spending points.
