Free or paid?

Diligent searching and accounts across many loyalty programs

None of that has anything to do with the good deals I've found through the site. I'm not trashing your reccos, you just seem to have something personal here. It's still a good source of information on my experience

Depends on your level of skill or effort. Point.me has a booking service, for like 200$ they help you find it and book it. There’s also a subscription to their tool. Personally I use things like pointsyeah which is free.

But as always it’s a question of what points you have, where you want to go, where you are, and when. With a balance of a few hundred thousand points across multiple programs and transferable currencies, the world is your oyster.

How many points do you have and were are you going to/from?

Haven’t heard of points hound-excited to check it out

Specifically said yellow. Hotel calls me a private lux SUV and the driver got out of the car to handshake the man who called and said hi (honestly money couldve been passed).
