See You in Austin: Point Me to First Class Conference 2027 Details

Episode Description

If you’ve ever wished you could talk about points and miles with people who are just as enthusiastic about it as you are—without worrying about annoying anyone—this episode is for you.

Dr. Andrea Mabry and I are officially announcing the 2027 Point Me to First Class Conference, taking place in Austin, Texas from April 29th through May 2nd at the Hyatt Regency Austin. After the incredible response to our first conference in Chicago, we knew we wanted to do this again—and this time, we’re giving you a full year to plan ahead.

Listen in as Andrea and I discuss why we’re hosting another live in-person event, what makes this format so valuable compared to learning online, and all the details you need to know about the conference. We share details from the speaker lineup and our session format to room rates, CME accreditation for medical providers, and how to register. Whether you’ve been to points conferences before or you’re considering attending your first one, this episode walks through what to expect and who this conference is designed for.
