Let’s begin…

“Why care about points?”

Think about your next flight. You're standing at the aircraft door. Left leads to Business Class with spacious seats, champagne, and proper sleep. Right leads to Economy with cramped seats and no privacy.

Which would you choose? Naturally, every business owner would pick Business Class. But they don’t, because of the hefty price tag.

But what if business class was almost the same price as economy?

Here’s the secret: when you use points smartly, you close the price gap, and may never have to pay full price for expensive airfares again.

Hi, I'm Steve Hui, Founder of iFLYflat

Over 12 years ago, I cracked the code to unlock the immense value hidden in points.

This approach has transformed the way I travel, and now I’m on a mission to share this blissful way of flying with you.

My team at iFLYflat have helped thousands of business owners (just like you) turn their business expenses into Business Class flights — saving $5,000—$10,000 per flight. We’ve redeemed 1+ billion points and counting!

Ways to earn points

There are so many ways to earn points from your everyday business bills, pay and expenses.

Every time you pay a supplier, the ATO, even paying wages—these are all opportunities to get you closer to your next Business Class trip.

At iFLYflat, we can help you create a points travel strategy that’s tailored to your business spending and travel goals. Simply book a 1:1 Points Travel Strategy Session with Steve.

Any business with a turnover of more than $1 million is suited to take advantage of working with us.

The costs vs benefits

Whether or not points are worth using comes down to simple maths. At iFLYflat, we use a financial accounting approach to ensure you fly Business Class at the lowest cost.

A Quick Example:

For every $300,000 you spend on business outflows, our iFLYflat strategy can help you collect 300,000 airline points for a cost of $6,000 in transaction fees, or less.

But why pay fees to earn these points?

Because 300,000 points can unlock Business Class Sydney to Europe return, which would typically cost $12,000+ at retail price.

  • Pay: 2% av Transaction Fees: $6,000 ($300,000 X 2%)

  • Get: $12,000+ value

  • Fly: Return Business Class to Europe

  • Saving: $6,000 / 50% per ticket.

FAQs

Some of the common questions Steve gets asked about points:

  • This will NOT work for you if:

    • You don’t want to fly Business Class (points offer minimal savings for Economy)

    • You have 5 passengers or more (very rare to find 5 business class seats on one flight)

    • Chasing platinum status (because points flights don’t earn status)

    • Your spending is less than $250,000 per annum (you’ll earn points too slowly)

  • We’re NOT a credit care comparison service.

    In the Points Travel Strategy session, we will provide you specific recommendations on how to earn points the best way, including business credit/charge cards and payment services.

  • If you have existing credit card or airline points, our Points Flight Booking Concierge can help you find and book Business Class seats using your points.

    We don’t provide recommendations for personal credit cards.

  • We have services that serve both business owners and individuals.

    Business Owners:

    • Points Travel Strategy Session

    • Points Flight Booking Concierge

    Individuals:
