Episode 149 – Traveling Using Points, Miles, and Status & Brussels Belgium

In this episode I talked a lot about traveling with more flexibility using points/miles and more comfortable by accessing lounges.  All of which is done by having the right travel credit card.  The Venture X and the Sapphire Reserve both get you lounge access.  I use spend on my American Airlines card along with flights to gain points on American Airlines, as these two major travel cards do not transfer to American Airlines.  If you would like to help the show and you have been thinking about getting one of these credit cards use my links: Capital One Venture X, Southwest Airlines Personal and/or Business Cards, Chase Sapphire Reserve, Chase Sapphire Preferred, Chase Business Ink Cards, and the IHG (Holiday Inn) Cards. If you use my links to sign up for the card I get some points, and again it doesn’t cost you anything to help out the show.  Some of these credit card links do not last long.  If the link doesn’t work please contact me and I can send one to you in real time.  Remember, if you are unable to pay your credit cards off monthly then it is not worth getting these.  Thanks so much!

As for Brussels look into getting the Brussels Card.  It could save lots of money, and definately gives you something to do during your time in Brussels.  My two favorite bars in Brussels is the Delirium Cafe in central Brussels, and Moeder Lambic Original in a neighborhood.  If you are interested in the Air B&B house with cats and chickens click the link.  Remember you can use your international fee free credit card to tap on the bus and easily pay.
