Reviews

4.8 out of 5 stars from 296 ratings
  • Mixed

    I have mixed feelings about this show. I like that it focuses on relatable family travel, not luxury trips. I like trip reviews with practical information and many other useful general travel tips which are often there. The one negative is that Joanna is clearly a beginner in points and miles and often makes comments on cards that are incorrect. More editing and research is needed before the episodes are published. If you know to go elsewhere for expert advice, the show is an enjoyable listen.

  • A fun listen!

    These ladies are such a delight - love their enthusiasm for points and miles. They cater to “real life” travelers and that’s what most of us are (Instagram is not real life.) You can also tell they are genuinely friends.

  • Hosts don’t have much experience

    I’m shocked by the number of 5 star reviews here - these people are definitely getting their friends and family to artificially inflate their ratings. This is clear if you Google literally any other established points and miles podcast and listen to the difference. One of these hosts admitted she’s never been on a business class flight. That’s pretty unbelievable. Never having booked a business class award seat and thinking you should start a points podcast is kind of like telling people you’re ... more
