    Awesome podcast!
    I love listening to this podcast! I feel like I’m getting to hang out with the girls and learn a lot of great info in the process. My goal is to become an airport lounge queen just like Pam!
  • AS Wallace
    Informative and to the point!
    Phenomenal podcast on points and miles-currently binging all episodes and learning so much. Thank you!

    As a fellow podcaster, I love the tight, informative episodes and appreciate that there is no filler. As a “6 month in travel hacking student,” I binged the entire catalog and feel like I have my Bachelors in the subject! Thank you for your work, ladies.

    Too much content that is boring, annoying, and/or unhelpful
    I’ve listened to a lot of episodes of this show, and I’ve gotten a few good tips here and there, but I’m done. I can’t take any more of the constant bragging about luxury trips booked using insane amounts of miles that most “normal” people couldn't accrue (without getting bonuses from listeners using links to sign up for credit cards, etc). The hosts seem more interested in congratulating themselves on their lifestyles than in helping or educating their listeners. I guess they save the actual useful info for people who pay to take their course? And how many times can you use the words “obsessed,” “cute,” and “amazing”? Maybe I’d be willing to spend 50 minutes listening to someone talk about their vacation if they had a better vocabulary, or something interesting to say. If you are new to the game and want to actually learn about points and miles, I recommend “Points for Normal People.” If you are more advanced and want to keep up with the latest developments, I recommend “Frequent Miler on the Air.” But this particular travel mom won’t be recommending Travel Mom Squad ever, to anyone.

    Amazing podcast!
    I love TMS! They make traveling on points so easy to understand.
  • JJP1203
    I listen to every episode!!
    I started the hobby of opening credit cards to earn points in 2019 after stumbling on You Tubers who helped me get started. But finding TMS has helped me so much more because I finally can relate to who I listen to! No one I had found before had the perspective in this hobby as a woman and with a family! Thank you for all the effort you put into helping others!!

    Love this podcast
    Every Tuesday, I’m excited to listen to the latest episode! The TMS do such a great job explaining points and miles in simple terms, and their episodes are fun, informative, and give me great ideas on where to travel next. Keep up the great work ladies!

    Love the Travel Mom Squad
    This podcast is informative and entertaining. All three ladies bring something unique to the table. I’ve learned so much from them. My summer family vacation to Hawaii is completely paid for with points and miles. Thanks Ladies!
  • none37474728&2
    Amazing! Learned SO much!!
    The show is very informative and super well organized to get the most information out! Each of the women have a great personality and I can’t wait to listen each week!

    Life changing!
    This podcast is my favorite part of Tuesday! I have learned so much about points and miles and have been able to plan for and book several absolutely incredible vacations for our family as a result. I am truly grateful every day for TMS and the info they generously share to make nearly free travel possible for everyone! 🩷 best podcast ever.
  • Bkgos
    Thank you
    I’ve been listening since the beginning. I’ve taken many vacations since following you. Thank you for all the advice.
  • Tucker travels
    Love this podcast!!
    Love this podcast! It has taught me everything I needed to get my Companion Pass, get free hotel nights in Maui! Other card Subs to travel round trip to Japan and 8 nights in Hyatt hotels in Japan totally on points! I’m only in for one year!!
  • Thankful for TMS
    Thank you TMS!
    I think Travel Mom Squad is a one stop shop! I have 2 kids so I related to Jess the most with the number of airline tickets and space in a hotel needed being almost the same. Sometimes I travel with my in laws so I’m looking for closer to 6 total tickets and how to budget multiple rooms. So it’s great to listen to Alex’s strategies. Finally, Pam is inspirational with her amazing luxury trips! I also love to hear when other couple take some time to travel. Guilt just comes so naturally but it is so important to reconnect with your partner too! I am so grateful and thankful to find TMS!!!
  • Jess Rezza
    Love them!
    Love this pod! A great introduction to learning about points and miles to help your family travel.
  • Christy Listener
    I look forward all week long
    Love how funny and real these women are. They have taught me so much about points and miles. They keep it real and listening to an episode feels like chatting with friends. Thank you TMS!

    I listen to every episode and also the premium ones! I have learned so much from this wonderful group of ladies.
  • AmandaFoxK
    My favorite podcast!
    I’ve learned so much about traveling in points thanks to this podcast! If it weren’t for me starting with that first episode, my family and I wouldn’t be traveling the way we do!🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

    Family Travel
    I just THOUGHT I was travel hacking. Then I came across TMS. My three year old has been to three countries, but at great expense. With the addition of our 2nd child a few months ago, I really needed to step up my travel hacking game. I’ve learned so much, and I’m still learning, but these ladies have already enabled me to do a couple of family trips for basically free since I really dove in with them about a year ago. I am already planning our next family trip, and I look forward to being able to show my children more of the world!
  • Karly Gevas
    Love this podcast
    I love listening to these traveling moms every week. I started last year 2024 caught up and love going back to certain episodes if I’m planning on opening a certain card, looking up a hotel, or need a refresher. I have just returned from my first trip to Maui and will return again this Spring because of the information Jess, Alex, and Pam and shared. It’s weird to say, but at this point I feel like I’m listening to my friends have a fun conversation about one of my favorite hobbies now.
  • Katha.Lee.10
    👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
    These women are simply the best in the game. They talk to you like a friend that only wants the best for you and your family. I’ve learned so much from them- I’m a teacher that used to travel with students in order to travel for free. It was exhausting and not fulfilling. But now my life is full of adventure, relaxation, and everything in between thanks to TMS. I evangelize points and miles and TMS to anyone with ears! Don’t ever stop!
  • NikkiTart
    Love this podcast
    I listened to an episode that featured a friend of mine, but now I’m hooked! Love the podcast and love the classes. We just went to Paris for our anniversary and have a family trip booked to Cancun at the end of the year all because of what I learned from these ladies!
  • Mommyneedsavacay
    The Best in Points and Miles
    TMS is my go-to source for all things points and miles! Their content is always clear, up-to-date, and packed with actionable strategies to maximize rewards. Whether it's travel hacking tips, credit card insights, or the latest deals, they break it down in a way that's easy to understand and implement. Their deep expertise and no-nonsense approach set them apart from the rest. If you're serious about making the most of your points, TMS is the place to be!
  • Shender7
    The best travel pod to learn from!
    I’ve been listening to TMS since 2023 and greatly value all of the information they provide through their podcast. They are relatable and explain strategies in a clear and understandable way!
  • LindsayAnderson
    One of my favorites!
    Of all the points podcasts I come back to this one time and time again. I love learning from these ladies and I love how honest and straightforward they are about their love for points and miles. I feel like I get to geek out with friends.
  • MissBluebelle
    Listen and learn!
    Love this podcast. I’m now listening the second time through. I’m so thankful to have found y’all. A family and woman centered travel hacking podcast is exactly what I needed and didn’t know it. Truly life changing.

    I have been following the squad for a few years. Their team has been great at teaching me tricks to earn and redeem points. Thanks ladies!
  • Tammhall
    Love the Mom Squad
    I have listen to almost every podcast and a few of the a couple of times. They give great information and inspiration to get trips booked using points!
  • Linzjo3
    Only listen if you want to take amazing trips that don’t cost money!!
    Jess, Alex and Pam have taught me so much and have allowed me to take trips with my family, couples’ getaways with my husband, and girls trips with me best friends. The experiences are priceless, and the actual cost is almost too 😂
  • Meg121102
    Love this podcast!
    I’ve listened to all the episodes and I love hearing the mom’s perspective on travel. I have added so many places to my travel bucket list after hearing them talk about it!
  • MelissaCorso
    Simply the best!
    The Travel Mom Squad podcast is my favorite podcast! It has completely changed the game for me when it comes to travel. I’ve leveled up my skills in ways I never thought possible, thanks to their incredible tips, hacks, and expert advice. But beyond that, it’s just so wildly entertaining and fun! I find myself laughing, learning, and getting inspired every single episode.
  • nikpacker
    Best travel podcast out there
    I listen to a lot of travel podcasts. This is, hands down, my favorite. I can’t wait for Tuesdays when a new episode is released. These ladies know their stuff and are so fun and easy to listen to!
  • StephTaylor KC Girl
    I listen every week!
    The Travel Mom Squad podcast is one of my favorite award travel podcasts, and I listen to several! Theirs is a great blend of practical direction and aspiration-inspiring travel stories and reviews! The relationship between the three is fun and fresh, and it’s great to see Pam thriving in this role in her retirement!
  • Jenfife
    The best travel and points podcast
    Love the points and miles information as well as the travel inspiration. By far my favorite point and miles podcast!
  • Meg Milam Home
    Thank you!!
    I found these ladies just over a year ago and they have helped me to turn the high cost of living into travel for my family of 4. Feeling like I had very few options for taking my family on trips, they’ve made me feel like I have some control and options for travel. We are taking our 2nd trip on points next month (value of 4200.00 all covered in points), and planning for 2026 (and 2027!).
  • Mogirl11
    Great podcast
    Such a great trio of ladies. Love every episode. I have learned so much from their podcasts.
  • JessGass
    Favorite Podcast
    I look forward to the release of your new episodes every week. I have listened to them all multiple times. Thanks to finding your podcast a year ago, I started opening cards in February 2024 and took my family of five to Maui in November of 2024. We flew Southwest and stayed at the Hyatt vacation club for 7 nights. Points saved me $10,000. I have trips booked this year to Grand Cayman, San Diego, and Cabo. Last week I booked Costa Rica for 2026! Thanks for sharing everything you do.
  • Rebs ❤️
    I’m a points person now!
    I’ve always wanted to be a points person, but could never get over the hump because it seemed too complicated. Once I started listening to the mom squad though, I’ve now done it! I’m over the hump! Since October I’ve used points for 16 hotel nights! SIXTEEN! At nice Hyatts! So pleased with myself 🤣. And it’s all because of the mom squad advice ❤️❤️❤️
  • Lil1nbigboots
    You can do it too!
    Thanks to the TMS I was able to learn and gain the confidence that me AND my family could travel for free or nearly free. I didn't have to be single or be just my hubby and I. I'm so grateful for all they have taught me and it has provided my family so many free or nearly free vacations and memories!❤️
  • Pinterested in more pins
    Recommend to everyone!

    This podcast is literally life changing
    I’ve been tuning in for 2 years and I have saved thousands of dollars on family trips and visited places I never would have even known about without TMS! I have Andaz Papagayo booked for this summer, 2 rooms for 5 nights for FREE! Cash price over $10,000. NEVER would I pay that amount. Thank you TMS!!
