For example, he thinks a lot of people who are in the Aadvantage program would be better off joining the Cathay Pacific program. He also had some good ideas about buying Mexicana miles (which used to be very cheap) in order to fly on American or British Airways. He focuses on the cheapest way to get from one place to another in business or first class. I find the publication entertaining and useful, but I'm not sure how good a value it is.
