Get yourselves a nice travel credit card with good perks.

Chase Sapphire Reserve, for example, comes with lounge access when flying, tons of ways to spend points, and pretty fantastic customer service for when shit hits the fan.

Its like $550 per year, but you get $300 back when you use the card for travel expenses, free priority pass access for the card holder and 2 guests, TSA pre-check, and more.

On top of that, you get zero fees for foreign transactions and the like.

Travel credit cards never made sense to me when the most I'd use it for would be a trip every year or two, but as a DN I find ample ways to take advantage of the perks. I no longer mind waiting in airports, I essentially get free flights for just paying rent by getting points for airbnbs, etc.

By just using my card to pay rent I've managed to rack up enough points to fly my friends/family to come meet me where I'm at around the world. Even if it doesn't cover everything, it helps me share my joy as a DN to subsidize my loved ones' flights to travel outside of the USA when they might otherwise not be able to afford a flight outside of the US.
