Hi, welcome, to Ms Miles.
For years, I’ve been obsessed with a single question: How can I take my family on world-class vacations without the world-class price tag?
Living in Canada, we often feel like the “points and miles” game is rigged against us. We see flashy American credit card offers and wonder why we’re stuck with high annual fees and fewer options. But after a decade of trial, error, and some truly incredible redemptions—like [mention a specific trip, e.g., flying a family of four to Europe for under $200 in taxes]—I realized that the Canadian system isn’t broken. It just requires a different strategy.
Why I Built This for Canadian Moms
I built Ms Miles because I know that for a busy mom, “travel hacking” can feel like a full-time job you didn’t apply for. You don’t have hours to spend on message boards or tracking 15 different spreadsheets.
You need to know:
- Which card actually earns the most at the grocery store?
- How can I pool my Aeroplan points so the whole family flies together?
- Is that Marriott Bonvoy certificate actually worth the annual fee for a family-friendly hotel?
Most travel blogs are written by solo backpackers or digital nomads. Ms Miles is different. This is a space for the women who are managing the household budget, planning the school holidays, and dreaming of showing their kids the world—without draining the college fund.
My “Points” Philosophy
I don’t believe in hoarding points; I believe in Earning and Burning.
Points lose value over time, but memories don’t. Whether it’s using a “5k layover hack” to see an extra city or finding the perfect 35k Marriott redemption for a weekend in Banff, my goal is to help you maximize every cent of your everyday spending.
Let’s Get You Moving
Whether you are a complete beginner looking for your first “Welcome Bonus” or a seasoned pro trying to navigate the shift from Air Miles to Blue Rewards, I’m here to simplify the process.
Travel hacking is the ultimate “Mom Skill.” It’s about being resourceful, staying organized, and making the impossible happen for the people you love.
