FIREFIGHTER TRAVELS
Points, miles, and trip planning for firefighters and the people who love them.
It Started With a Question at the Firehouse
Firefighter Travels started because I kept getting the same question at the station: how are you traveling internationally AGAIN?The honest answer is points and miles. I'm a firefighter on a normal salary who has visited 22 countries, flown business class across the Atlantic, and taken trips my wife and I never thought we could afford. None of it required a high income, a travel credit card obsession, or a spreadsheet. Just a few good cards, used correctly, and the patience to wait for a good redemption.Every week I send out a newsletter covering real trip stories, practical points strategy, and the deals and tools worth paying attention to. It's built for firefighters, paramedics, and their families, people with irregular schedules, shift differentials, and not a lot of time to research.If you've ever looked at a flight price and thought "not this year," this is for you.
You've Earned This Trip. Let's Book It.
I work one-on-one with firefighters and their families to help them travel more for less. Whether you want a bulletproof plan for an upcoming trip or a long-term points strategy that actually fits your life, I've got you covered.Points & Miles Strategy — $197You work hard. Your spending should work for you. For $197, I will build you a personalized points and miles strategy that puts at least $1,000 in free travel in your pocket within the first year. That is a five-to-one return before you ever board a plane.Most firefighters have more earning potential than they realize. Between household expenses, car insurance, gear, and normal daily spending, a well-built points strategy can generate multiple free trips a year. The problem is knowing which cards make sense for your situation, how to hit bonuses without overspending, and how to actually use what you earn. That's exactly what this is for.What's included:One 60-minute consultation via Google MeetAnalysis of your current points and credit card setupPersonalized credit card recommendationsPoints optimization strategy12-month travel roadmapPrioritized action plan2 weeks of email support for follow-up questionsDelivery within 2 to 3 business days of your consultationCustom Itinerary Planning (10 days) — $297You tell me where you're going.

What Clients Are Saying
$2,300+ saved on flights for a family trip."Eric is a great resource in helping to plan a trip whether it's concrete or just an idea. It will help create dreams into reality with very little effort, giving you the peace of mind that you did it right.""We had been watching flights for almost a year and prices just kept climbing. Eric helped me save money, earn a significant amount of points using a credit card on the flights, and plan our upcoming trip. He also gave me great tips on future travel we'd love to do but hadn't fully planned yet. I didn't realize going through a larger airport would save such a significant amount of money."— Angel M., Austin, TX
"Eric is friendly and easy to talk to, has a strong understanding of how to make your points go a long way, knows how to book exciting trips, and meets you where you are.""I recently got a card that focuses on points with multiple uses and felt very overwhelmed. I was concerned I wasn't using them correctly. After our session I have a clearer understanding of how to use my points, specifically transferring them to get better value for flights. I was surprised to learn I shouldn't be using the credit card portal for flights at all. That alone was worth the call."— Jessi, Austin, TX
"Working with Eric helped me connect all the little dots of points travel into one big picture that my brain can actually navigate.""My wife and I were getting benefits from our cards but not maximizing them because we didn't fully understand how it all worked. After talking with Eric we quickly realized we were making unforced errors on both ends. We were limiting points earned by sharing cards as authorized users instead of each getting our own, and limiting redemption value by cashing out instead of transferring to partners. By staggering our applications for the same card, we'll easily double a 125,000 point signup bonus. Eric doesn't just regurgitate information, he personalizes it to your situation by drawing on his own first-hand experience. I really think my wife and I can cover a large chunk of our travel expenses through points going forward."— Erin, Austin, TX
