Hi, I'm Zac! What started as a points and travel blog in my early teen years has evolved into a platform where I share my journeys, insights, and passion for all things Aviation and beyond. Over the years, I've had the privilege of working in and around the aviation industry in various capacities. Today, I own and operate a global company called JETPAX and dedicate a vast majority of my time on exciting startup projects. This website is where I pull back the curtain on certain aspects of my work, my travel experiences as well as news and updates related to the ever fast changing industry well all love. Thank you for stopping by!
