Mary Ellen’s back from London with three kids, a stack of memories, and a jaw-dropping redemption: five tickets to London for just 43,000 points and $0 OUT OF POCKET. In this episode, she shares exactly how she did it — plus the seat map trick that scored her extra legroom for free.
We swap stories from our very different London adventures, from royal parks to hidden foodie gems, and even the small missteps that turned into unexpected wins. You’ll hear why economy might be the smartest play (even for long-haul), how to keep kids engaged without blowing the budget, and what not to miss if you’re planning your own UK trip.
Whether you’re plotting your first trip to London or looking for fresh ways to stretch your points, this episode is packed with strategies, laughs, and plenty of inspiration.
