Show Notes

John Taylor Garner from @odynncc describes himself as a disrupter capitalizing on a love for travel, skillset in fintech, and orientation to innovation by building global teams and suites of products that unlock credit card earning and redemption to profit businesses and individuals.

In this episode, John and I discuss his company’s product Awayz, a site that makes it easy to make the most of your hotel points and free night certificates. They also allow you to see up to 30 days of availability at a time for hard-to-book hotels like Alila Ventana Big Sur and take advantage of 5th night free promotions at aspirational hotels like the Conrad Bora Bora. We’re also covering a demo of the different features of Awayz in this episode, complete with visuals on the Geobreeze Travel YouTube channel. 

One of the favorite hotel programs we discuss on this channel is the Hyatt program due to its award chart full of redemption sweet spots. You can earn Hyatt points with the World of Hyatt card, Bilt card, or Chase cards such as the Chase Sapphire Preferred.

Remember, if you decide to apply for the [card] or any other card, never apply directly through Google – always use a friend or creator’s referral link.
