Is it a scam?
Are points even worth it anymore?
Do you need millions of points to fly business class?

After 150 discovery calls with Australian founders across construction, agriculture, professional services, FMCG and tech, this episode of Always Business Class breaks down the most common myths about points, business class travel, and the Flights Club model.

We unpack the psychology of dynamic pricing, why business class fares to the US are now $10,000+, and how points create a fixed-price alternative in a volatile travel market.

This is not about hacks or shortcuts.
It is about cost versus benefit, systems versus guessing, and using business expenses strategically.

If you are a founder spending money anyway and want more comfort, more flexibility and more meaningful travel experiences, this episode is for you.
