  • Your Travel BFFs

    I really enjoy this podcast! I feel like I could be good friends with these girls and I love hearing them talk about points and miles. They talk about how their families get sick of them talking about points and miles and I can definitely relate to that! I also like that they want to support other content creators online and are not only promoting themselves.

  • Love the show

    Love listening to all your advice. I wish you had more in the show notes to the places you stay at or visit so we could click on it from there instead of taking notes. For instance listing the flush app or a link to the flykitt would be helpful so we don’t have to go back and relisten to parts to find the info. I enjoy listening while driving.

    My wife and I recently got into this hobby, and I have sampled and test drove many podcasts on the subject. One common theme I noticed among these other pods was that the host(s) seemed to always be doing a “humble brag”? With their amount of points, with their trip destinations, etc. I’m sure they probably didn’t even mean to come across that way, but it was still just a little distracting. THIS podcast however…Mary Ellen and Jo are for the people. They know some of us are starting from humble ... more
