The USA TODAY TRAVEL Frequent Traveler University is heading south to Texas. Join us at the Hyatt Regency DFW Airport on April 17-19, 2015. We’ll have amazing educational sessions, great networking, and plenty of friendly Texan hospitality.
There will be two separate events going on at the same time – FTU Advanced and FTU. If you’re don’t feel comfortable with basic miles and points strategies, mile transfer partners and credit cards, I would recommend signing up for the regular FTU. FTU Advanced is meant for those folks who have the basic knowledge already who want to further their skills.
Negotiated hotel rates are $99 per night for the event, and you can book your room by clicking here.
If you’re hesitant about attending, feel free to read my post on why I love attending FTUs here. Or, read my post here on the benefits of attending an FTU.
