Want to fly business class on your honeymoon? What about staying at a 5-star resort? However, after wedding planning, that probably seems terribly expensive! We’re going to teach you how to travel hack your honeymoon so you can do this for almost nothing!
Chris and I discovered the magic of travel hacking, or the art of collecting miles and points to stay and fly places for almost no money, around the same time we started wedding planning. And it turns out, it is the best time to begin travel hacking!
So in this podcast episode we’re giving you a breakdown on why it is a great time to start travel hacking, tips, best travel credit cards to open, and even our strategy that we used to earn enough miles to fly business class round-trip to Southeast Asia for our honeymoon for $60 each.
What travel hacking tips do you have? Have you started collecting miles and points? Let us know in the comments or you can tweet us @wwhoneymoon, message us on Instagram @worldwidehoneymoon, or email [email protected].
