Conferences & Events

Do you ever feel like you are alone out there as a mile and point junkie?  No family or friends understand what you do and why you do it.  They think you are just plain crazy at times.  Well if you are a miles & point addict it’s okay.  There are plenty of us out here.  You are definitely not alone.  Many of us mile and point hounds converse and strategize in forums like Milepoint or Flyertalk.  But there are actual conferences, seminars, meetups and megados for people in the mile and point world like us. These conferences are a great way to meet fellow travelers and connect with people of like-mind who do what you do every day.  Connecting with friends you’ve known only online in Flyertalk or Milepoint. or meeting some of your favorite bloggers.  It’s a great way to learn so much from others in a very short period of time.  The same knowledge might take you hours and hours of reading online to gain.

There are becoming increasingly more conferences and events for mile and point collectors to attend.  This page is intended to be a resource to keep you up-to-date on all these types of events.  If you know of other major community events please let me know.  Thank you!

MEGADO

What’s a MegaDo? You might be wondering, “What in the world is a MegaDo?”  Well, I thought that too when I first heard about them.  A MegaDo is the ultimate frequent flyer adventure, where 150-200 enthusiastic folks get together, charter an aircraft, and go on behind-the-scenes tours of airlines and aircraft, while picking up swag and tons of miles and elite status along the way.
