Show Notes
Shaila Arbona from @travelhackingvida began her travel hacking journey one year ago and in her first year earned over one million points! Shaila wants to spread awareness about the perks of travel hacking so that more women, families and people of color can access opportunities for travel. She’s also a coaching client of mine, and I’m so proud of everything she was able to accomplish in the last year!
In this episode, Shaila and I discuss how she earned more than a million points and how she used those points to stay at some incredible luxury resorts in California such as a couple of St. Regis Hotels and the Alila Ventana Big Sur, which can often go for more than $3000 per night!
One of the cards that was instrumental in Shaila’s journey was the World of Hyatt card, which lets you earn points towards luxury hotels like the Alila and also helps you to reach Globalist status with Hyatt faster. However, you don’t need Globalist status to enjoy Globalist perks! One thing you can do is ask a Globalist friend to make a Guest of Honor booking for you after you transfer some points into their account, and then you’ll be treated as if you have the Globalist status yourself! If you are interested, I provide the Guest of Honor booking services to my full strategy coaching clients.
