- About
- A frequent flyer who posts over 250k miles per year, Dan has a passion for all things finance and has been maximizing his points and their redemption values for over 10 years. He starts to get fidgety when he hasn't flown somewhere in more than 10 days, or when his aggregate points balance dips below 2 million...
Favorite credit card: "The Chase Sapphire Reserve℠. Dining and travel are by far my two biggest spend categories, so this card is a no-brainer for daily use. And maybe the The Platinum Card® from American Express because 5x points on airfare is pretty amazing, and FHR perks and free nights can mean awesome hotel stays."
Favorite airline: "Hmmm, that's a tough one, but probably Singapore - their A380 was the first suites product I ever flew, and their service is always excellent, even in business class. They lose points for no car service, but you can't have it all!"
Favorite hotel: "Pretty much any Mandarin Oriental I've stayed in. No loyalty program to speak of, but I like that, and I can still earn points and get perks like free nights and late checkout through various cards."

Updated 7 years ago by DanWhat is Global Services? If you don’t know, you should: it’s awesome (see this WSJ article and a hefty flyertalk thread from last year).
