Stephen Foskett, an experienced business traveler, shares practical advice for making frequent business travel more bearable and even beneficial. He emphasizes the importance of focusing on one airline to accumulate status and points, which can lead to better service and free vacations, though he warns that the perks are often overstated. For hotels, he suggests joining multiple loyalty programs to bank points, as elite status is generally not very valuable. Foskett also highlights the advantages of using personal credit cards for business expenses, recommending the Chase Sapphire card for its versatile points system. He advises against carrying a balance to avoid interest charges and suggests that fee-based credit cards can offer worthwhile benefits. Overall, his tips aim to reduce the inconvenience of business travel and maximize the potential for personal rewards.
