During his junior year study abroad, Max Morganroth, traveled to 30 countries, primarily flying in business and first class. His jet-setting was funded almost entirely by airline points he collected through strategic credit card applications and miles redemptions.

Morganroth told TechCrunch that just about everyone he knew was “begging” him to teach them how to get free flights through airline miles programs, a term he calls “travel hacking.” However, most people in his circle, including fellow Wharton students, either didn’t qualify for the best airline rewards credit cards or lacked the time to maximize their mile conversions for optimal flights.
