    Great podcast but…..
    This is a great podcast. Very valuable information and topics which really relate to the beginner-intermediate points travel enthusiast. But…. The latest episode worries me a bit because I have heard/seen too many podcasts in this genre turn to the infomercial format to promote the “paid classes” they offer. It starts innocently enough by mentioning the class each episode. Then, before you know it, a third or more of the podcasts (now more like infomercials) released are interviews with people who took the paid class. They spend most of the episode recounting all the things these paid classes offer and so much less time spent on providing actual information on travel points and strategies for the listener. Yes, this latest episode is a departure from the normal, usually informative format and I hope it it an anomaly. Please don’t become the next “Families Fly Free Podcast” of weekly infomercial fame. Thank you and hopes for continued good work ahead for you ladies.

    So much valuable information
    I discovered this podcast early this year and have learned so much valuable information about traveling on points and miles. Thanks to all the tips I’ve learned, my families hotels for our 3 week road-trip this summer are completely covered by points and I have enough points saved to book Hawaii for next summer as soon as I am able to book. Thank you so much, ladies for all your hard work!

    Fun Ladies with Priceless Info!
    I love, love, love this podcast! During one of their first episodes they talked about their first award redemptions and how excited it made them to learn that a whole new world of affordable travel was now available to them. That episode got me hooked - the excitement was infectious! Every single episode is filled with helpful information that makes it so easy to hack travel for yourself! I’m so excited to book my first redemption and take that almost free trip thanks to all I’ve learned from the TMS!!
  • Nicole@23
    Amazing information!
    I stumbled upon TMS through a mom’s facebook group and have learned so much from these ladies! My husband and I earned over 600k points last year and are on our way to surpass that this year. We have been able to take trips with our kids that never would have happened without points and miles. Thank you for all of the content you share!

    Should’ve known moms do it best
    I don’t even really like podcasts and I’d tried listening to others in the past and could not get through one episode- usually just too boring, too long, or annoying. I listened to one episode here, then another, and before I knew it I had listened to every single one! I have already saved so much $$$$
  • Bahsinelahgekvz
    Amazing!!
    This has been amazing and helped us travel for free! I love their content and their podcast is one of the few that have ever held my attention 😂. They are so enjoyable to listen to; it’s like chatting with good friends. I appreciate the different perspectives that they all three bring!

    Life Changing
    These amazing women changed my life in such a short amount of time. Now I am planning dream vacations to places and destinations I never would’ve thought I could afford. I love hearing about all of the places they have been, and cannot wait to see where this takes me in the future. ✈️

    Always helpful and responsive
    I started my travel journey a few years ago (finding Alex on TikTok over the pandemic) and I’ve learned so much. I’ve met with Pam 1:1 about 3x now and truly appreciate the info they share. I also have asked many questions over the years and the gals are always helpful and responsive.

    Can’t wait to get started!!
    I am new to travel hacking, because frankly it had all overwhelmed me in the past. I just binged listened to their podcasts during a long drive and they make the info SO easy to understand! They break down so easily that I am confident I can successfully travel hack my way to traveling cheaper for my family of 6. Can’t wait to see where this takes us! Edit to add: I wrote this a year ago, and am now coming back to update. With their tips, I am taking my family to Baha Mar in June (2 rooms x 7 nights)…hotel and flights all booked with points!!! 🤩🤩🤩 We also have trips to DC and Bonita Springs booked, as well as more points waiting for the next trip. Travel hacking has changed our travel lives! Thank you ladies!!! 🥰🥰🥰

    How to travel as a mom? Leave the kids!
    I get that there’s a grandma involved but the two main woman are millennials with seven or so children between them. However, they’re going to the Maldives - no children. All these bucket list trips - kids aren’t there. Kids go to Mexico and Texas. So, it is hypocritical to teach their same demographic that we can travel like them when we can’t. We have kids like them but don’t have a job that is based around travel. We want to travel as a family. It feels very MLM-y and that it doesn’t matter if their kids travel because they’re selling cards. I heard the other complaint and wanted to say that I agree.
  • TN Amy
    Love this podcasts!
    I have learned so much listening to Pam, Alex, and Jess! Super excited about the travel possibilities now open to my family, thanks to these ladies and the content they are sharing!
  • MSmithTahoe
    Always an immediate listen!
    I’ve been listening since day one and I still get pumped every Tuesday morning to see what this weeks episode is!! Very helpful info and it doesn’t hurt that all three hosts are very charming. Love the travel mom squad!
  • patriotfortrump
    Great Podcast for EVERYONE!!
    These three ladies provide so much information and insight on how you can travel for almost free. I love their different perspectives and I am creating a travel list for my family from hearing their travel experiences. I look forward to Pam talk about the best “breakfastes”( if you know you know)😉. After hearing about Jess and her family trip to Scotland I am going to plan a trip there. This place was never on my radar prior to hearing about their trip. Thank you Alex for starting this podcast. Keep up the great work!!!!
  • Susanne A.
    Binge worthy!
    I absolutely adore these three women who have taught me so much about traveling on points and miles! Thanks to them, I learned how to earn enough points for my husband and I to take our son on a senior trip to Japan for 16 days. All of our flights and hotels were completely covered with points! I listen to every single episode!
  • stfl05
    The best, most relatable “travel on points” podcast out there!
    The travel mom squad gals are amazing! I love that between the 3 of them you have a mom with grown kids who loves to travel with her friends and family, a mom with one older daughter and a mom with multiple young kids. What could be more relatable? When I first found the podcast; I binged so many of them, I followed their tips and I’ve now traveled on points to Aspen, CO, Jamaica, London, Hawaii next month and Greece next year! They share their stories and experiences and provide easy to understand how-to’s that can get you wherever you want to go, whether that’s a solo trip; a trip with friends or a trip with your young family- you name it, they’ve got you covered!
  • Cava E
    Done the research and it shows
    Great content and detail on how you can travel hack. They’ve done the research and it shows and is helpful.
  • Jdrose68
    Great and informative
    Enjoyed listening and learning. Easy and very helpful content. Provide information for people who travel with young and older kids along with friends
  • MeganLSU
    Love them
    Love their podcast and Instagram account. Have learned a lot from them and have many trips planned thanks to their advice and stories!
  • MMadiM
    Incredibly Helpful
    Love these ladies! Incredibly helpful information. Because of them I was able to cover flight and hotel cost to Disneyland for my family of 4, flight and hotel for my husband and I to go to Maui for our 10 year anniversary, and I almost have enough to do hotel and flights to Kauai for my whole family. We can’t afford to travel like this otherwise, so this has been life changing for us! Thank you Pam, Alex, and Jess 💜
  • Demi Bush
    I listen every week
    I enjoy listening about their various adventures and honestly listen thinking I wonder how I could get invited along one day. I feel like Pam Alex and Jess are my friends at this point. I wait patiently every week to get a new podcast. I not only get inspiration for future trips I want to take but I’m also learning something new in the travel credit card game. I have listened to the podcast from the very start and I enjoy the little things like hearing Pam incorrectly pronounce breakfasts and charcuterie. As I ATA student I trust these women to guide me through the expansive world of traveling with points and miles and I am always recommending them to friends and family.
  • Bsecrist
    Travel dreams coming alive
    Love love tuesdays because I get to listen to their new podcast when I drive my son to preschool! We are big time Disneyland people, so our money has always gone to those trips, but this podcast has taught me how I can do Disney plus another sweet vacation with my family and husband each year!!
  • CollegeGirl22
    Professional Leveragers!
    I have listened for a year now, and I’ve learned so much about leveraging points and miles! I’m a working mom who wants my travel budget to take me further and listening to this podcast on my commute (and reading their blog) has helped me do just that!
  • AimeeInAustin
    Love
    This podcast has taught me so much about travel and points! Thanks to them, I have gotten 500k points in the last year. Wish I had found sooner. Also love the moms! They are all great and love hearing about how they travel in different stages of life.
  • Heatherquittouchingsh@t
    Best Podcast Ever!!
    This is my favorite podcast for points and miles information and for general travel as well! These three women are SO helpful, so relatable, so knowledgeable, so funny and I don’t ever miss an episode! They have literally changed my life in the best way!!
  • nofrogsforme
    Wonderful Podcast!!!
    Love the podcast! Such great information and you all so fun to listen to!
  • Alexis Wessel
    Best source for getting started- moms or not!
    This podcast and this group of ladies inspired me to dive into travel hacking! I dipped my feet in two years ago and took small trips here and there- all on points! We haven’t paid for a flight in over three years except for fees. My husband and I are currently waiting to board a business class flight to Rome, Italy all because of this podcast and all of the information and resources this wonderful group of moms have provided!! I have not found a better podcast that has a better source of information on how to get started and continue to learn more.
  • kankles4
    Travel hacking at its finest
    Every episode may not pertain to my travel, but they cover everything in this podcast. I started following them before their merge and have learned so much from them along the way! Give it a listen and you won’t be disappointed!
  • madsnovak
    Newbie feeling inspired
    I’ve been listening to these ladies for almost a year and I am obsessed! Travel hacking is stressful for me, and they break down concepts so easily and make it simple to follow. Just got my southwest companion pass last month and it’s all due to this podcast! Can’t recommend enough, obsessed with these hot moms!
  • klwaggon
    HIGHLY recommend!
    One of the few podcasts I anticipate all week and listen to immediately. These ladies make travel hacking so approachable and easy to get into, plus their perspective as Moms is hugely valuable to me. But even if you’re not a Mom, if you have ANY interest in taking amazing trips for nearly free, this is a must-listen!
  • Pduran08
    Such a fun group of travel ladies!
    I enjoy listening to this podcast on my daily commute. Keeps me motivated. :)
  • JSMohr
    Life Changing!
    These ladies teach you the basics, then the advanced, and everything in between! I started at episode one and haven’t missed an episode since I started! 1.3 million miles earned and 250k redeemed in 7 months says it all! 🤯 TMS is the bomb! 💥
  • Brcarroll93
    Love
    I’ve learned a lot through this podcast. And they don’t make it overwhelming at all.
  • Tltp253
    My Kids Should Thanks These Moms LOL
    As a mom of 2 (family of 4) & my mom, it’s so expensive to travel. Even when I followed other influencers, they have good tips but it’s not relatable…until these moms! I mean if Alex can travel with her family of 6 on points, why can’t I? I learned SO MUCH just from their IG & Podcast content but decided to take it to the next level and signed up for the Next Level Academy. The course is great but the private Facebook group is invaluable! Also they are super responsive when I needed help! These mom allowed us (family of 4) to go on trips that we could normally do once every 5 years…now we are already going on 2 international trips this year! My kids and husband should thanks these ladies for these trips. Without these ladies, my bank account would have screamed at me for paying cash for these trips lol. Great ladies, great content! Grateful I found them!
  • Cali238
    Hands down best points and miles podcast for families
    This podcast has it all. Tons of information, great delivery, and genuinely entertaining rapport between the TMS. I look forward to hearing their voices every week. Keep up the great work, ladies!!
  • rwsrscott
    Very Helpful Team!
    Thankful for women who do the research for me to make this easier!
  • Superwoman_200
    My favorite travel podcast
    This is my favorite points and miles podcast by far. They offer so many different viewpoints and options for travel and points and miles tips. I got into this world because of their podcast!
  • Kldude
    Jumpstarted the Obsession
    2+ years ago, Travel Mom Squad showed me that traveling for nearly free is possible! I never want these podcast episodes to end even if they’re an hour long. I look forward to their episodes every week and will listen to them BEFORE any of my other points/miles podcasts. Alex, Pam, and Jess are the REAL deal, so much FUN, and the best of the best in this space! GO SQUAD GO 🤗🥹🥰
  • KateA4
    My favorite!
    I listen to this show any uninterrupted chance I get. These ladies are so inspiring and fun to follow. Each hosts offers a unique perspective, which I love. If you need a newbie travel mom with teens, let me know!
  • east43rdst
    3 for the price of 1!
    All 3 of these lovely, well-informed ladies add amazing value to the podcast and the Instagram account! Whether you are curious about credit card strategy, looking for tips on point redemptions, or curious about specific destinations - these ladies have you covered! From traveling with littles to traveling with your significant other and/or other adults-only trips - they cover it all!!! I haven’t listened to all of the episodes yet, but I sure plan to!
  • Will travel for concerts
    So informative! Every episode has amazing tips
    I cannot say enough good things about this team/podcast. I have been traveling for nearly free for 3 years now because of these 3 ladies. They always provide tangible, easy to follow tips and tricks. I’d be lost without them. Run, don’t walk and listen/follow all their content!
  • SusanSightsees
    One of the best!
    I stumbled on this podcast when I started travel hacking several months ago. I found other blogs and podcasts were confusion for a beginner. I quickly binged every episode on a long drive and felt so prepared to start traveling on points. I’ve now booked over $40K of nearly free travel, and it all started here. I look forward to the new episodes every week. Jess, Alex and Pam are so relatable, funny and entertaining. I love hearing their adventures and I always learn something new about earning or redeeming my points! This podcast is a great place to start if you’re new, but definitely not only for beginners. It’s absolutely worth the listen, but prepared to get hooked!
  • vonners80
    The realest of the real
    I absolutely LOVE listening to these gals talk all about their travels. Families come in so many sizes that I need to know how to be able to book just for my husband and I. Our kid is out and grown, so we love hearing all their stories and interesting ways to book. They are Always there to answer questions! They are true and real with everything they say and post!!! Love, love, love! Keep on doing what you do!
  • Kristalynn19
    Literally saved me thousands
    I’m so grateful for these women. Crazy to think how much money I’ve saved because of them. I’ve taken my family to Washington DC, Florida (multiple times), Hawaii (multiple times), and dozen and dozens of weekend trips. Their podcast always gives me new ideas whether it’s traveling with my entire family, just my husband, or girls trips.
  • JesseMorell310
    Love Listening
    I started listening for tips and stayed for the awesome and entertaining content. Love hearing about all the places you ladies go! Love the dynamic between Jess, Alex, and Pam.
  • Hockeychick229
    So helpful and relatable
    I love this show and look forward to it every week. The ladies have so much points and miles wisdom to share!
  • KatWed22
    Great learning tool
    I would recommend this podcast to anyone getting started with using points and miles. I stumbled upon the Travel Mom Squad several months ago and I’m totally hooked. I’ve been able to earn multiple welcome bonuses and I’m constantly adding to my bucket list based on some of their trips and experiences. Thanks for providing practical family advice and reviews so that all your listeners can enjoy travel with their loved ones of all ages.
  • bye-bye girl
    Travel Mom is a misnomer
    The secret to their travel hacking seems to be leaving the kids at home while they travel. Pam as a retiree does not add value to the concept of family travel, and her comments about being a lounge snob and not flying anything other than business class are entitled and whiney. There are much better points and miles shows out there.
  • Love totravel
    Very Helpful
    Really enjoy listening to these ladies talk about their wonderful adventures using points. Not sure I will ever be able to spend enough to keep getting the bonuses on the credit cards or as one of the ladies discussed $25,000 in spend to keep two hotel card benefits going for a year.
  • aries4902
    Dont learn much from them
    Only hear them talk about their redemptions and that’s it. If you want to learn follow frequent miler. This is the group where they started anyways
  • Bradystewart
    Love!
    I love these 3 ladies and all their tips for those of us who love traveling and saving $$! Definitely one of my top favorite podcasts!
