Get a free round-the-world ticket if you travel in November or early December
Written by Gary Leff, October 23, 2024
My former award booking partner Steve (some of you may know him as “Bobo” on FlyerTalk) literally wrote the book on the best miles and points utilization over 30 years.
One of the lessons he always reminds me is that if it’s a good deal, you should think about how it will scale. And now Scandinavian Airlines is offering 1 million miles for flights on 15 SkyTeam airlines. Redeem 50,000 business class miles on most long-haul destinations with no fuel surcharges. So 1 million miles is pretty good.
The hard part here isn’t planning a successful itinerary. It can be done for a few thousand dollars.
If you didn’t do that anyway, this is how long it would take to do this whole trip
And of course, there’s the risk that your itinerary will fall apart.
Those who are willing to take some risks can find others willing to participate and fund the trip and adjudicate the first and second issues. That person is Steve.
His idea is to find people who are willing to travel. He funds the trip and follows all program rules regarding earning and redeeming miles. So if you want a “free” round-the-world ticket, it’s worth contacting Steve. I never use the miles myself. Just like your employer buys the ticket, he buys the ticket and you are the one who travels.
