Omad

Omad cofounded The Points Party and writes under a pen name. That's the only thing about him you won't get straight.

He plans trips around things with a date on them. A concert three time zones away, a race weekend he's been watching the calendar for since January. F1 is the expensive habit, and it's taught him more about award availability than any guide could, because a Grand Prix weekend is exactly when every seat and every room disappears at once.

He covers transfer partners, sweet spots and welcome-bonus maths. A 30% transfer bonus into a programme that just devalued is worse than no bonus at all, and he'd rather you kept the points than moved them somewhere he wouldn't.
