Hi everyone.
I am involved with an organization that runs miles+points seminars. I helped to coordinate one of this year's events at The D in Las Vegas.
(we even have a "special" room rate!)So, if you needed an excuse to go to Vegas... and wanted to learn all about mile+points, how to book those awards more effectively and lots of travel tips....
How about a discount? Sure. Use
edgeFTU for $10 off!
Questions? Do not hesitate to ask.LINK to the Event (and purchasing tickets, including the blackjack tournament)
The ProgramThe all-day Manufactured Spend boot camp intensive is sold out, but fear not. For those with interest in MS, there are still sessions on the latest and greatest Manufactured Spend opportunities on both Saturday and Sunday that are included with the FTU Signature Event. Instead of spending the entire day on just one subject, there will be two 1 ½ hour sessions over two days and it also gives you the opportunity to attend a variety of the other sessions available during the weekend. There will be 3 sessions running concurrently during the day so attendees at the FTU Signature Event will be spoilt for choice. Plus, not every session is repeated at every FTU so there is bound to be something new for those who have attended FTU's before.
Sample sessions include:
— What is it like to live in hotels full time?
— Finding Cheap Premium Fares
— Introduction to Mileage Running: Costs and Benefits
— International Upgrade Methods and Strategies
— Using ExpertFlyer
— Live Award Bookings
— Advanced booking techniques for revenue tickets
— Non-traditional awards and miles
Tickets for the FTU Signature Event are just $199 for the whole weekend and can be purchased here -
