About Travel Technician

Your guide to smarter travel through points & miles

Travel Technician is a personal travel review and resource site dedicated to helping everyday travelers unlock the full potential of airline loyalty programs, credit card points, and frequent flyer miles. Whether you're a complete beginner or a seasoned points collector, this site is built to give you honest, first-hand insights you can actually use.

The site covers a wide range of topics: in-depth airline cabin reviews across Economy, Business, and First Class; airport lounge ratings from Priority Pass lounges to exclusive first-class facilities; and reviews of the travel tools, apps, and credit cards that make the whole points-and-miles game easier to play.

Every review is written from real experience — no sponsored fluff, no guesswork. The goal is to help you decide whether a redemption is worth it, what to expect when you board, and which programs deliver the most value for your travel style.

Travel Technician is created and maintained by Jim, a passionate traveler and points enthusiast based in the United States. Jim has flown business and first class with Singapore Airlines, Qatar Airways, American Airlines, British Airways, and many more — always on points, always looking for the best redemption value.
