So I’ve been at this for just a little over a month and the blog is going strong! I may slow down the articles a little bit but I intend on continuing to bring you good quality content you can use in your travel hacking journey.
As a reward to my loyal readers I thought I would help one lucky reader with finding (and if necessary) booking their award flight. Just to clarify … you’ll have to supply the points. I’ll supply the know-how and will do the research to find you availability.
While I intend on helping one lucky reader, I won’t leave the rest of you in a lurch. Once the lucky reader and the desired destination is identified, I will create a step-by-step blog series detailing how I found the availability so you can do the same when it comes time to finding your award flight.
How Does This Work?
It’s pretty simple. Leave a comment below and on Sunday, I will choose the lucky reader and begin the search.
On Monday, I will start to document the step-by-step process so you can follow along.
In the comments below leave the following:

You have until Sunday to get your comments/requests in.
Obviously there will be programs that will not be covered (based on who wins) but this will certainly give you a HUGE head start on finding your own award availability.
