At the Chicago Seminars last weekend, Scott gave two presentations:
- Airbnb Mastery
- Sweetspots 2017
I published the Airbnb Mastery slides yesterday below I’ve shared the slides from the Sweet Spots 2017 talk for the people in attendance and those who couldn’t make it.
Many of the sweet spots mentioned in these slides come from the post How to Book a RTW Trip in 2017. Use These Underpriced Awards Around the World. That post is a list of award prices arranged by region. Many of the prices are links that lead to a full post explaining a time Scott or myself booked the award for ourselves or a MileValue Award Booking Service client.
Did you make it to this year’s Chicago Seminars? Let us know your thoughts if you saw MileValue’s presentations.

Your sweet spot lecture is terrific! Thanks for sharing.
As someone who prefers vacationing in remote places, my “sweet spot” favorite is Calm Air from Winnipeg to Churchill on the Hudson Bay for 15,000 Aeroplan points round trip. The cash value of this flight was $1000 when I booked it months ago. I leave next week to see polar bears in the wild.
