My first byline as a full-timer The Points Guy

Had a good weekend speaking at Frequent Traveler University and TravelAdventureShow in Los Angeles.

I have too many cards for that.

Great presentations at @FTU this past weekend by @PointsTravelher, Matthew Klint - Live And Let's Fly, Maricris Palentinos (FinesseTraveler on IG) @TravelWithGrant, and many more! Skillful panel moderation & emcee work by Stefan Krasowski. Unique & fun venue. Thanks Frequent Traveler University team! ☀️#travel ☀️

Turned away from 3 Priority Pass lounges at SFO. People who pay hundreds of dollars in credit card annual fees are not happy when they can’t use their benefits. And yeah, people is me. But also several others who tried to enter the same lounges at the same time as me.

Sooo true
