Howdy folks,

I was wondering what if anything ya'll use to manage your FF miles, etc...

For example:

1. Yodlee (www.yodlee.com)
2. Free
3. Automatically logs into 1000's of sites,
banks, airlines, hotels, car,
email, news, stocks, etc...
4. Let's me setup custom accounts.
5. All my information is on one page
and I can auto-login to anything.

Anyway - what do ya'll use use? Excel Spreadsheets, Moonlight Labs products, what do you like and why?

Thanks,

Pakse

Excel: never down, works offline, and offers privacy.

Obviously, it is a low-tech, labor intensive approach, but I do not care to have a third party aware of all my travel patterns.

Just downloaded MileTracker (Moonlight Labs) - seems pretty darn good!

Excel...I've been using this spreadsheet for about a year now that I've created. It's slowly becoming a masterpiece. I've got it so it will show me how many miles I'll have at any point prior to year end (assuming I put in flights) and automatically do the bonuses. I also keep in it a record of all good/bad seats, routings, United Rules (S*PMO/....). It's my little life saver.

mymiles2go - Sounds like a great Excel tool... care to share a generic .xls with some friendly FTers?

Excel has been my tool of choice. I won't share personal data with the great unknown.

I use Miletracker. It's very convenient and allows me to track 4 family accounts at the same time. (milepro only allows 1 account) This saves me tons of time. Plus I even use it to access the individual programs since it's much quicker than going into the individual programs and through the various layers to get to the mileage info. In other words, I open Miletracker and through it access my Hhonors, Starwood, AA, UA, Northwest and Marriott Rewards. Great product and it's free! (but donations are appreciated and well deserved!)

UAL to Hilton Honors 20,000, a second UAL transfer to Hilton Honors. Starwood to UAL, Mariott to Delta, Creation of Hilton Honors Mutual Fund, Transfer of wife's Delta points to Hilton Honors, Redeemed three round trips from my Delta account, building residual balance on Delta to 5,000 to transfer to Hilton, Accuing Safeway and Idine to round up my United account back to 5000 . . . My Points to rescue orphan Marriott points . . .

Consolidate Consolidate Consolidate

Needless to say keeping track of balances crossing between the programs would be a nightmare without a product like MileTracker.
