There is no such thing as "travel hacking" - only creative travel arrangements.
Anyone that says different gets a free vacation to Kabul on a nasty, flea infested camel.
There is also no such thing as a "Starwood Alliance," there is the Star Alliance of airlines and the Starwood Hotel chain whose credit card can transfer points into certain airlines. Which "Starwood Alliance" fits your meaning?
With a nonprofit I would hope you are cost conscious, so you might use more than one airline to assure a competitive rate?
And watch the name calling, all us travel artistes get offended easily.

Should our membership in airline alliances and FF programs be in the name of the corporation or my personal name? Same question in regards to applying for cc offers for mileage points. I am the only person in the corporation that would be using the miles.
Also, would someone please confirm that if I join an airline FF program that is in the starwood alliance, then I am automatically a member of the starwood alliance? Or do I join that separately? And do I join every airline program I would be flying or just a few?
Thanks for your help!
