Ask Mr. Lee

Welcome to Askmrlee.com!

Hi there. This is Ask Mr. Lee and here is my weblog entry. Since I was a kid, I've always loved to travel. When the first frequent flyer programs were created I joined as many as I could thinking that one day I would earn enough for a free trip. That was back in 1983 and since then I've traveled the world often on free tickets.

I discovered EAASYSABRE, which was the predecessor to Travelocity on CompuServe (now integrated into AOL) back in 1985 and learned how to search and price my own airline tickets. I learned how to find the lowest fares and maximize earning mileage.

I've always seen the rewards programs and rebate credit cards and similar promotions as one big game. Over the years, I've learned to get something back for everything I purchase, earn frequent flyer miles everywhere and actually use them.

I am not a business traveler, although you might mistake me for one when I'm in First class section on an upgrade.

So I'm here to help guide you through the sometimes confusing maze of frequent flyer and other travel reward programs.

Take it from me, you don't have to be a frequent flyer or travel often for business to enjoy many of the travel perks they enjoy. Even if you don't travel, I'll show you the way to get a little something back for everything you buy.
