What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Fun and helpful podcast for anyone who wants to dive into the points/miles travel world. Mary Ellen and Jo give excellent, easy to follow advice for anyone whether you are a beginner or have been at this “game” for a while. Love the mid week minis, great for if you don’t have a lot of time to listen.

CPDBuf · Apr 2025

I love the mid week mini’s especially but the American Airlines one was amazing! I’ve been doing points for about 4 years and listen to lots of podcasts on it and finance. This has become my favorite to make sure I listen to each week… they make it easy for everyone to understand no matter the “level” and it’s great actionable advice.

Jaash2000 · Apr 2025

I really like this podcast as a fellow mom trying to optimize credit card spend to take my family on more vacations. I like the topics they choose to discuss; always relevant and relatable.

brittney.mont · Apr 2025

Knock, knock. Who’s there? Avios. Avios who? Avios glad I found the Wonderland on Points podcast before I wasted my points on a blender or gift card instead of a business-class flight! As a mom juggling kids, points, and the never-ending snack requests, this podcast has been a total game-changer! Their family-friendly tips have helped me stretch my miles way further—unlike my patience when my kids start arguing at 30,000 feet (which, let’s be honest, I’d still rather handle the chaos in the air than at home) Not only do they break down points and travel hacks in a way even my sleep-deprived brain can handle, but they also bring on the most wonderful guests with different niches, making this a true one-stop shop for anyone looking to maximize their travel. Whether you’re a newbie, a seasoned points pro, or just someone trying to avoid paying cash for flights, there’s always something new to learn! If you’re not listening yet, what are you waiting for? TSA PreCheck to your next vacation starts here!
