A Valentine’s Day Travel Gift That Keeps On Giving

Matthew Klint Posted onFebruary 14, 2019February 14, 2019 2 Comments

If you have not come up with a Valentine’s Day gift for your loved one (or even if you have), consider the gift that keeps on giving: travel knowledge.

Imagine a gift that pays for itself over and over and over again. Learn how to use miles well. Learn how do manufactured spending. And learn how to travel like a pro beyond the miles and points game. Frequent Traveler University is coming to Seattle next month. Tickets are still available and you can even save $25 on admission through a special Valentine’s Day offer code. See below for details.

Honestly, I wish I would have attended one of these 10 years ago. It’s a lot easier than reading multiple blogs or forums when everything is neatly placed before you. Doesn’t that represent a more thoughtful and loving gift than flowers and chocolate?

In addition to the entire Live and Let’s Fly team of Carly, Kyle, and myself, a great line-up of speakers will be present, including:

  • Joe Cortez, Nerd Wallet
  • Xiang Fan, US Credit Card Guide
  • David Feldman, Airline & Hotel Loyalty Consultant
  • Mike Graziano, Make Travel Hacking Great Again
  • Charles Hagedorn III, Seattle Travel Hacker
  • Lee Huffman, Bald Thoughts
  • Jason Steele, Credit Card and Travel Journalist
  • Yansong Wang, Cashback Monitor

> REGISTRATION LINK

The schedule, available here, contains two full days of information on:

  • Two days of expert-led sessions on Saturday and Sunday, March 09-10
  • Lunch both days
  • Internet in the conference rooms

This year, FTU will be held just a short walk from Seattle-Tacoma International Airport:

  • Hilton Seattle Airport & Conference Center
    17620 International Blvd, Seattle, WA 98188

Now through 02/17/19, you can save $25 off the price of the weekend

  • $25 off with code LOTSALOVE until midnight PST February 17, 2019, lowering the weekend ticket cost to just $224
  • Free Thai dinner Friday night, March 8 (attendees will get a RSVP email prior to the event, limited to first 75 participants to register, includes main with rice and one non-alcoholic drink.)

CONCLUSION

I would not push this event if I did not believe it was worthwhile. Consider spending the weekend of March 8-10th in Seattle at FTU…I have never known anyone to regret attending a FTU. Even if you learn just one small nugget of new info, that pays for the weekend.

    Crazy. This hobby is about free travel.

    You guys better come up with ways for us to attend FTU for free.

    It’s not about rationalize spending for travel.

    Do you accept points?

    When I saw the title I thought you were going to push the SW companion pass.

The new United Polaris Lounge at Washington Dulles The new United Polaris Lounge at Washington Dulles is the most beautiful of all Polaris Lounges. Stay tuned for a detailed look and many more photos on the blog tomorrow. Well done @united.
@malaysiaairlines just announced it would retire i @malaysiaairlines just announced it would retire its A380 fleet. While not surprising, it is sad to see the growing list of carriers retiring this superjumbo jet. On Malaysia Airlines, I flew the #A380 once from Kuala Lumpur (KUL) to London (LHR) and had the entire first class cabin to myself (full review on the blog). It was a beautiful flight that I will always remember.

While I’ve enjoyed catching up on others over the years, now it is time for me to return to Instagram. In this first post, I highlight two joys in my life, my two children, whom I trust will grow up to be prolific travelers that circumnavigate the globe as ambassadors of love and respect.
