Condé Nast Traveler called and I had a lot to say!
I had some ideas about how to make travel more affordable in 2025 and they were all ears.
I’ll try to keep this post short since TikTok is back now and I am guessing many of you are back to scrolling away there ;)
TLDR: Brooklyn Family Travelers got some great press!
Condé Nast Traveler reached out and asked me to contribute to a piece about how to make travel less stressful in 2025.
It’s out now and I’m so grateful to have been a part of it!
Here’s an excerpt, but you can read the whole piece here!
And there’s this part:
“At the same time, some travel brands now offer high elite status just by holding a particular credit card, according to Lipson, which means more competition for precious upgrades. “Putting more of your spending on a card that earns transferable points offers significantly more flexibility when it comes time to choose a hotel or flight,” Lipson says.

…like THESE cards. Or better yet, drop me a line and I can help you figure out personally, which one is best for you at NO CHARGE!
One easy way to show your support for Brooklyn Family Travelers is to use my credit card links anytime you sign up for a new card. Reach out anytime for a link!
If you’d like advice on which card is best for you (there is a strategy to this!) you can book a free Wallet Edit HERE or a free 15 minute phone call HERE to strategize.
And obviously, you might not be as excited to talk about credit card strategies as I am and I get that lol. But the reason I am excited about it is not because I love credit cards or love promoting banks or anything of the sort. I want to help YOU learn to use points in a smart way so your family can travel like we do. We all spend money, why not be smart with it?
Travel like this is in your reach:
