Episode Description

This week I’m chatting with Families Fly Free member Dave Banks—a dad of 4 from rural Oregon—who went from “credit cards are only for emergencies” to saving $2,367 on just 2 trips using my simple system. Dave shares how he and his wife flew to the Florida Keys for as low as 5,000 points each way with the Companion Pass, why the Families Fly Free Community has been the biggest surprise, and how the support inside Families Fly Free helped him go from skeptical to all-in.

You’ll learn:

  • Dave’s weekly habit that keeps spending responsible yet rewarding
  • How he pushed through a points hiccup and why it was worth it
  • Why smaller airports like Boise can still unlock big wins
  • The quote that guides his travel: “You can’t recall the memories you never make”
