Frequent Traveler University: December 5-7, Hyatt Regency Crystal City
The next Frequent Traveler University, in partnership with USA Today, promises to be the biggest gathering of frequent flyers ever — topping even last April’s sold out event in Northern Virginia.
The event will be held at the Hyatt Regency Crystal City minutes from Washington’s National airport.
It’s a fantastic venue to support us all, and Hyatt has made available (2) $250 Hyatt gift cards for me to give away here. Gift cards that could be used on your stay during Frequent Traveler University!
All you need to do to be eligible to win is leave a comment on this post. You may answer one of two questions,
- What would you most want to learn at a gathering of frequent flyers? Or..
- What is the most important thing for a conference host hotel to know, or to do?
Since there are two gift cards, and two questions, you may enter up to two times.
Just leave a comment or two comments and I will draw the winning comments at random from those left by October 14 at Noon Eastern. (Void where prohibited by law. All of my decisions are final and unappealable, I want to make giveaways as easy as possible and with the fewest headaches possible.)
And I hope to see you at the upcoming Frequent Traveler University!
- You can join the 40,000+ people who see these deals and analysis every day — sign up to receive posts by email (just one e-mail per day) or subscribe to the RSS feed. It’s free. You can also follow me on Twitter for the latest deals. Don’t miss out!
I would like a key to decipher the Trick It thread on FT
travel savings tips
How to stack promotions to earn even more miles and points
complimentary breakfast
Host hotels should have wi-fi
I’d like to learn some basic guidelines on what tier/type of flights are the best uses for miles.
I would like to learn how to book aware seats
Host hotels should provide free wifi and breakfast a and discounted parking if not free.
Definitely manufactured spending, in depth. And finding sweet spots in award redemption.
What I would like most to learn at a FF conference would be how to make contacts that I could learn from in the future. I’m new to this and I recently lost my job with an airline. I live for travel and by obtaining miles it keeps me close to my family 2000+ miles away. It also allows me to continue my hopes of exploring the world and learning of different cultures and ways of life.
“In partnership with USA TODAY”? Enjoy your short-term profit from this affiliation but once UST publishes its stories, kiss this hobby goodbye as every bored, middle-America housewife blunders into the “free” points and travel arena. wtf.
What is the most important thing for a conference host hotel to know, or to do? They should give a bag with information brochures and favors to all attendees
What would you most want to learn at a gathering of frequent flyers? I would like to know all the inside secrets and information most people don’t know.

I think I would like to hear about MS methods that failed, so that discussions can be generated to maybe turn that method into a viable one.
If host hotel gave out goodie bags, that would be awesome.
Would love to win these…
I’d love some info on how to reclaim credit card rewards points if a trip has to be cancelled, something not covered by trip insurance!
2. Have proper working wifi! I hate it when the bandwidth of the hotel can’t handle so many people.
Awesome idea
1. What would you most want to learn at a gathering of frequent flyers?
A: Details of things I won’t see on blogs. Top aspirational trips from each of the presenters 🙂

For FTU? Pretty much everything!!
Would love to learn more about manufactured spend or other ways besides credit card sign up to earn points.
Thx for the gift card!
I want to learn about MS.
To learn more about manufactured spending.
Host hotels should make sure that their WiFi performance in hotel rooms, public areas, and meeting/conference rooms is seamless and flawless and with high performance throughout. Especially during FTU’s where participants need to have high performing online access to “hands on” try tips and techniques presented.
Unlike Europe, Africa, esp East Africa like Tanzania and Kenya, hasn’t been talked about much in most blogs. I’d like to learn about finding F seats to Africa.
