For our Million Mile Madness Challenge, Greg, Nick, and Stephen are all competing to complete the SAS EuroBonus Millionaire promo with the most style, affordability, and speed… all in the next two weeks! If you followed along our last challenge – Flying by the Seat of our Points – you remember that we had semi-regular live check-ins where our contestants were required to show up.
We had some exciting live check-ins. On one occasion Nick barely made it, tuning in from just outside the immigration line of his target destination of Morocco! And of course we revealed important scoring (and winner) updates at these live check-ins as well.
We had so much fun with those live check-ins, we’ve done our best to put (at least) one on the schedule for this challenge as well. By the time we all check-in, Greg and Nick will have been traveling about ~5 days and Stephen ~6.
As always, the best way to make sure you don’t miss these live episodes is to subscribe to our YouTube channel here and click the bell icon next to the “subscribe” button to enable notifications from our channel.

For participants in Million Mile Madness, is your life worth so little to you that you’re willing to sacrifice a month of your life for a possible net gain of $4,000-6,000?
I’m guessing that you won’t be making the check-in, so just a couple clarifications:
1. They better not take a month! They’re supposed to do it in two weeks or less!
2. They’ll be earning ~$11-13K worth of points for an out-of-pocket outlay of somewhere in the $2-3K range for a difference of around $8-10K. That said, each one will be giving ~$2,500 worth of points to readers, so their “take home” will be less than that.
3. This is actually what we do for a living…isn’t that bizarre!
