Hello fellow Canucks! I've been putting some time into getting my finances in order, and I'm realizing how unimpressive my BMO Airmiles Mastercard is on the travel hacking front. What cards have you guys had success with? Which would you recommend? Thanks a million, tricky

So I figured this was probably the best area to discuss this. So "travel hacking" is a pretty popular thing and although I don't travel as much as I'd like I'd definitely get some of the benefits from learning how to get free trips around the world. I'm particularly fond of Asia and have been to South Korea, Japan, and the Philippines a few times and I plan on visiting a new country every year. I'd like to start doing it, especially since I could use the miles to visit my family as well and maybe even help my mom fly out once in while to visit me. So with all that said does anyone do this kind of stuff? Any recommendations for getting started? I've been reading thepointsguy.com for some useful info but I'm not sure if it's as easy as signing up for a credit card then accruing miles that I can use later in the year for flights. I'm going to do my research but I wanted to create these thread to have a place to talk about this kind of stuff and to share the info with everyone.
