What's in my wallet & how it saves me money on travel.

I want to continue to share with you what credit cards I am using that enable me to book both domestic and international flight for just a few bucks(can't escape the tax man!). Part of the reason I am able to make Flavor City, and travel all around, is because I have been taking advantage of credit card bonus miles since 2005. I used to watch travel shows and think, " man that looks nice, but it probably costs a fortune", and guess what..it does! The good news is, when you eliminate the airfare and hotel cost, you can live like a VIP without breaking the bank, and thus allowing you to experience new cultures and eat the most fantastic foods all over the world. 

British Airways Visa Card: I have over 300,000 miles on BA thanks to the fact that they have one of the most lucrative sign up bonuses in the business, 100,000 points! BA flies all over the world, but one of the aspects I love most, is that they are part of the one world alliance, and I can book American Air flights using my BA points. So my round trip ticket to NYC in December for a friends wedding only cost 15,000 BA miles to book on AA. The current signup bonus gives you 50,000 points after the first purchase, but then you have to charge $10,000 the first year to get 25,000 more. Check it out.

Southwest Visa Card: Southwest has 4 credit cards, all offering 50,000 miles, in their family, and I have them all! Southwest makes it very easy to book any flight using points, and they are usually my go to for booking domestic flights. I would recommend signing up for one of the personal and business cards the same day, as only one credit check will be done. Check the cards out here.
