In episode 133 of World Travel Made Easy With Itinerary Boss, Discover how positioning flights can turn “I don’t live near a hub” into real business-class options. Hunter Threadgill aka the Professor of Points breaks down what positioning flights are, why they work, and how to use them without blowing up your trip when delays happen.

You’ll learn how to spot the best airports to position through (think Chicago, Boston, Seattle, Vancouver, and more), how to protect the long-haul seat you actually care about, and how to plan stress-free buffers especially when you’re on separate tickets or switching airports. Hunter also shares how he uses hotel points (like Hyatt and free-night certificates) to turn an overnight into a bonus vacation day, plus a simple way to think about fuel surcharges and smarter Europe gateways like Paris and Amsterdam. We also touch award availability patterns and why competition at “someone else’s hub” can create opportunities.
