This is the REAL "Hitchhiker's Guide To the Galaxy"! Your logo should be: "Don't Panic!" My head is exploding and my mind reeling from the horizon expanding, world shrinking, eye opening ideas and knowledge being shared by the hosts and various guests! Thank you so much for this course and the information in it. I have binged over the last two days, and must now digest and formulate a plan for implementation. I can see using these tools to not only help with my startup, but also to enable me to see my children and family scattered across the parsecs of space. You have given us an Infinite Improbability Drive for our ships!
This course changed my life more than any other I have taken through CreativeLive. It opened my eyes to something I had never considered and made travel possible for my family as never before. In the year since taking this class we have traveled to Mexico and New York. Hawaii is coming in four months.
Because of this course, my girlfriend and I will soon embark on our first visit to Europe for three weeks, 90% free. Yes, it is a lot of material to absorb but there is so much good information in each lesson! Take notes, watch the material in sections and act on their advice as soon as the lesson is over. Your trip will start to come together faster than you'd ever imagined!
This class really opened up the possibilities for me. I didn't have time to watch it when it aired live, but thought it could be worthwhile to buy it, and am I glad I did! I'd been collecting miles through credit card sign-up bonuses, and had a glimpse into the oases that are airport lounges, but that's about as far as I'd gone. There is so much great information to be had in this class around how to gather and use miles and points that it can't help but pay for itself many times over, financially as well as in fantastic life experiences. Chris and Stephanie are excellent teachers, relaxed and clear. (I'd be happy to be an audience member for their next class! I'm right here in Seattle!) I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to understand the sometimes complicated world of travel hacking. You'll thank yourself later when you've freed yourself from the Greyhound Bus experience that is coach class.
Chris and Stephanie, we watched all lessons live till now. And we’ve decided to buy the course, not only because we can go back and watch again everything that we learned, but mainly because we believe you both did such a great job that you deserve at least our payment as a “thank you so much!!” Hope we meet you one day somewhere around the globe ;) André&Ana from Ases a Bordo
WOW!!! Travel is something I have ALWAYS been interested in but Chris & Stephanie brought to reality the ease of which you can do it in a totally different way than I ever thought of! Anything worth doing takes a bit of work, digging, reading and tracking, but if you want to expand your horizons, this is the way to do it! Have a bucket list??? -- consider it fulfilled with these travel hacking ways and the ease of which to do it. My outlook on traveling has been forever changed!!
This course has been absolutely fascinating and in-depth, making the whole world of travel hacking very clear and showing how easy (and exciting) the process can be. However, it must be said that the key to the whole course is earning points and miles, and although people in other countries can earn some points and miles in various ways, the massive bonuses (which enable people to travel all over the world for free) are NOT available as they are linked to US credit cards. So the benefits of this course are heavily weighted in favour of residents of the USA.
This course is amazing! Chris and Stephanie provide all the information you need to become a master travel hacker, which can allow you to go on a dream trip and more. They explain everything so that even a novice travel hacker can understand, and remind us to do what makes sense for us. Even if you follow only a few pieces of advice from this course, the ongoing money you can save on travel and the resulting experiences make the price of this course well worth it! I have already earned hundreds of thousands of miles, enough to go on more than 1 dream trip! Much more than a dream trip though, this course can allow you to see the world, without having to worry about how to pay for it. I highly recommend it!
This was an excellent introduction to the use of frequent flyer miles and hotel points. I have always been skeptical of the programs and felt that they were a lure to encourage you to spend more money with very little in to gain in return. However, after reviewing the material presented over the past six weeks, I decided to venture into the new world of obtaining the rewards of a “Frequent Flyer”. I started with the “IHG” card and have purchased the necessary requirements to qualify for the 70,000 points and a free night at one of the 9 groups of hotels. I paid it off the balance in 5 days and have retired the card so that any additional purchases will be applied to one of the new flexible credit cards. Chris Guillebeau and Stephanie Zito presented the course with such overwhelming enthusiasm and encouragement to that life style, that I signed up for the course and will be following their recommendations for obtaining the frequent flyer status and rewards. I am a backpacker/enthusiast that likes to travel with tour groups to different part of the world – but now, I will be traveling in style to the tour location using the rewards generated by using Chris and Stephanie’s recommendations. With this new information gained from the CreativeLive Group, plus Chris and Stephanie, I am now seeking friends and fellow travelers to inform them of the positive outcomes of using the credit cards and other methods of generating rewards that will give them an upward status and possible change in life style.
Whether you are a newby and want to learn everything everything there is about travel hacking or whether you are an experienced travel hacker and want to learn some new strategies, I highly recommend this course, you will learn so much. Victoria, Australia.
I just bought this class. I am definitely a daydreamer with regards to travelling the world. I am really hoping to learn so much from this class and book a trip going home to surprise my family.
Do not hesitate to buy this great course. This overwhelming topic is presented in logical, manageable chunks of information and in a cohesive manner. Many thanks to Stephanie and Chris for a very valuable, and life-changing, class.
Highly recommended! This is one of the best CreativeLive courses I've ever taken and a great value. There's a lot of excellent information here, presented in a fun and accessible way. The CL "boot camp" approach was perfect for this topic because it dispenses the material in bite size pieces with very doable action steps along the way. The corresponding Facebook group adds even more value and camaraderie. It's a great place to clear up any questions or confusion that may come up. What an amazing resource! By the end of the course, not only will you have learned a tremendous amount, you will actually have something tangible to show for it!
This has been my first CreativeLive course and it has been fantastic! I have learned so much about how to creative accumulate and use miles and points and I am so excited that I'll be able to travel so much more now. Chris and Stephanie very clearly explain their strategies, and if you buy the course you also get a workbook with some great bonuses. If you want to travel I cannot recommend this course highly enough.
CreativeLive has some GREAT courses, but this one has been THE BEST! Chris and Stephanie make the intricacies of Travel Hacking clear and understandable. Buying this class is a no-brainer - you will get far more out of the course monetarily. It's a BARGAIN compared with all the money you'll save. But the most important benefit of this course is that, through travel hacking, you'll have rich life experiences you wouldn't otherwise have. Value? Priceless.
I'm cheap. I always watch these live courses, take as many notes as I can, and move on. Not so with this course! Chis and Stephanie host in such an engaging way, I found myself looking forward to each session - spending the beginning of my precious lunch hour (I'm EST so it's noon here) with my fellow Travel Hacking buddies. This course is so thorough and fun, I decided to make my first Creative Live purchase - not because I thought I'd watch them again (though I most definitely will!) but because I genuinely saw the value of this course and wanted to "give back" for all it's taught me about travel hacking. I've always wanted to travel the US extensively and, after this course, I already have enough points to spend long weekends in two of my wishlist destinations - Chicago and Miami - for practically nothing! If you're just starting out in travel hacking, this is a must have.
Life changing!! Just an absolutely first rate course. Chris and Stephanie offer a wealth of experiential wisdom to guide the novice and expert in creating unprecedented travel experiences. With this course, I gained a whole new reality of what's possible thru travel hacking. I have a fantastic new appreciation for earning whenever I spend. I truly look forward to sharing the proof of my well used miles and points.
I've always known there way a lot more to travel hacking than the little bit I knew, but I didn't know how to comprehensively find the information without spending hours and hours on the internet. I've been following Chris' website for years and am constantly inspired by his creativity and determination. When I learned that he and Stephanie were offering a course on travel hacking, I immediately signed up. This has been a very good decision, as it will enable me and my family to travel more, for less money. I recommend this course, without reservation, to anyone who loves to travel.
Over the top, even by Creative Live standards. I've had such fun each morning with this 30 Day Bootcamp. Stephanie and Chris have brought TravelHacking right down to earth for all of us. This is the best investment of $79 I could possibly have made and at the $99 price after the live event-it's still the best investment out there. Tremendous value-added. Thanks Creative Live for making this possible!
Fabulous course! Moves at a comfortable, personal pace allowing participants to not only absorb all the useful information, but tailor it to their own plans and dreams. Although in the past we used miles and points earned through work-related travel, we thought those days were over now that we're retired. It's exciting to know it doesn't have to be that way and we're now "earning miles as we sleep." We are already using what we've learned and have at least two trips planned in the coming months. Thanks to both Stephanie and Chris AND the great studio audience for opening up new possibilities in the years ahead.
I LOVE this course! So much information and yet it is so "doable". All of the information has really opened my eyes to so many possibilities. Chris and Stephanie are great instructors, they explain everything and make it interesting. I also love the format. If I listened to all of the info in one day, my brain would probably explode. Taking it in small increments and adding a little bit of information every day is great. I wish more classes were in this format! I have a bucket list a mile long, and for the first time I'm thinking that I may be able to accomplish it. I have a shirt that says "Eat well, Travel often", thanks to this course, I think I can do just that! Thank you so much!
I started dabbling in miles accumulation last year, but on a small scale. Being in the studio audience, I got a head start on the whole course. As others have said, this material is totally accessible, and Chris and Stephanie are skilled instructors who are generous with their hard earned knowledge. It would take us years to learn what they are packing into our heads with this course! No matter how grand or scaled back your travel dreams are, there is something to learn from these two experts. As a result of taking this course, I have managed to research old accounts to find lost miles and points; created an organization plan for keeping track of what I have and what I intend to accumulate; created a schedule of which cards I want to apply for as well as the timing of that to manage the minimum spends; started the application process; and most important, started dreaming about the travel I had decided was out of reach! Thank you Stephanie and Chris! Lynn
Although I've dabbled in collecting miles, this course is seriously changing how I'll be approaching my miles collection (for a lot more miles earned!). And learning how to use the miles is a fantastic addition--that's where I've struggled. But my first family trip is in the works, and using a lot fewer miles than I thought I'd have to. Totally recommend!
I was a dabbler with miles before this boot camp and only a few weeks in, using the cards I already have and moving some money around I just "found" about 160k miles a year. That's without any new cards or any travel. This will be a game changer for me and for my life. The material is accessible and Chris and Stephanie are great teachers. So glad CL decided to do this class!
This is a fabulous course. Stephanie and Chris are both so knowledgeable, helpful, and easy going. They clearly love and practice what they're teaching. And they're open to learning from the students too. The course is packed with information, delivered in an immediately useful way. In fact, they emphasize again and again that the point is to USE the information to REALLY take your "Dream Trip" soon! The Facebook group is the best I've ever experienced with an online course. Stephanie and Chris are remarkably present, responsive, understanding, and generous with their knowledge and experience. I highly recommend this course.
