See you next year, same weekend (Oct 18 – 20, 2019!)

Next month will bring the 9th annual Chicago Seminars back to Elk Grove Village, Illinois (right outside of Chicago O'Hare International Airport (ORD)), the largest and longest running gathering of points and miles enthusiasts in the world.

If you're looking to book your first award ticket, identify the best airline sweet spots that no one talks about, or simply want the opportunity to meet some of the most genuine people that'll help you achieve your travel goals — this is the event.

AwardWallet proudly sponsors the Chicago Seminars — every attendee will receive a code for a free 6 months of AwardWallet Plus.

There will be over a dozen speakers covering various topics, and we've even set up several “Ask Me Anything” sessions so that you can get your specific questions answered.

The AwardWallet and Award Travel 101 team will all be in attendance: Howie (me — the event organizer), Richard (Runs our Facebook Community, and Toni (One of our Facebook Community Moderators) will all be speaking at the event. (Full Event Schedule)
