Where’s the best place to live for miles and points? | Coffee Break Ep03 | 3-5-24

Frequent Miler on the Air

We love talking about points and miles all day, every day. That's why we've decided - in addition to our full-length Frequent Miler on the Air podcast episodes, we're going to share a little something to enjoy during your Tuesday coffee break too. Not a full hour of discussion and analysis like you'll find on the full episodes, but a mini version with a single topic of focus.

While Greg and Nick are traveling, Frequent Miler teammates Stephen and Carrie covered this Coffee Break episode for a topic particularly suited for Stephen.

(01:28) - This Coffee Break topic came from our last Ask Us Anything, Live when one of our listeners asked, "If you could live anywhere in the U.S. based solely on points and miles opportunities, where would you live?"

(01:58) - Stephen and his wife have been on a 7 year road trip to explore every state in the US.

(03:22) - Which places stand out as particularly good for points and miles enthusiasts and why?

(03:56) - Earning opportunities are a significant factor in how Stephen evaluates each destination.

(04:52) - Texas is particularly good for Stephen's points-earning strategies.

(05:54) - Ohio (and particularly Cincinnati) is also good for Stephen's points-earning strategies.

(06:40) - How do those destinations work for award booking? (Or does that matter?)

(08:01) - How much do points and miles factors actually impact Stephen's decision about where to live?

(12:50) - Is any destination better than no destination (as in continuing to be nomadic?)

(14:01) - What is Buc-ees?
