The easiest way to be a travel pro

Howdy! If you celebrated Thanksgiving, I hope you had a lovely day or two off.

But now… I imagine most of us are in recovery mode from the amount of food we consumed, so consider this weekend rendition of Daily Drop a nice, refreshing palette cleanser 🙂 

✅ You might want to consider buying Aeroplan points while there’s an 80% bonus.

✅ Don’t forget to check all of the current transfer bonuses before you move any points over to an airline or hotel.

✅ If you’re (responsibly) shopping for your next credit card, have you looked at our Top Cards page in a while?

✅ Did you see this week’s YouTube video about climbing the credit card ladder?

🏆 Favorite pick of the week: Daily Drop Pro Black Friday Sale

Tis the season for Black Friday deals!

It’s become tradition around here to launch some sort of epic sale for Black Friday… Last year was for FareDrop, but this year, it’s for the rebranded (and new and improved) Daily Drop Pro 💜

If you’re new around here or have previously been on the fence about it, we’re SO EXCITED to offer you what we think is our Best. Deal. Ever.

For our Black Friday sale only, we’re dropping the $149 price of our Pro Plan down to $99 for the first year. PLUS, we’re throwing in a free set of Daily Drop Pro-branded packing cubes, thanks to our partners at Tripped Travel Gear 🫶🏼

Just know that these packing cubes are limited—in fact, over half are already gone since we launched the sale earlier this week 😮

Personally? I am 100% team packing cubes.

I use them for every trip I take—no matter how short or long. So I find these to have WAY more value than other merch we’ve offered before!

But aside from the packing cubes, is this deal worth it?

DD Pro has personally helped me with a couple of future trips I have planned. Here’s how.

One of the perks is you’ll get unlimited access to points searches for over 140 airlines… DD Pro found this amazing business-class flight for me in order to position myself to Europe next year 👇

It took all of 30 seconds and honestly saved me about an hour of sifting through different airline sites on my own.

DD Pro also sent me this cheap cash deal to Newark in January, so now I can save some money and visit one of my oldest friends who is staying in New York after spending the last few years abroad!

Of course, the tool has MANY more perks, benefits, and features. If you’d like a rundown of all it has to offer, check out Kara and Nate’s recent video.

OR you can listen (on Apple or Spotify) to our very own Community Manager, Megan, share more about DD Pro on the Point Me to First Class podcast.

Just know we’re hard at work adding new searchable airline programs, fixing any bugs, and constantly planning how we’ll continue to improve over time.

I can openly admit that I’m biased, but I hope this shows you how Daily Drop Pro has helped me with a couple of my upcoming trips, and the value that it brings to any eager traveler 🙂
