Mini bio
How it started.
Nicky loved planes as a child and travelled using his sister’s British Airways cabin-crew concessions. When those benefits passed to her family, he turned to points, miles and credit cards to keep travelling. While working as a lawyer at Virgin EMI Records, he began blogging and vlogging as The Miles Mogul.
Finding his audience.
That personal project caught the attention of TPG founder Brian Kelly, who hired him to establish the UK franchise. Nicky joined TPG in 2018. The team’s British Airways four-cabin comparison became a viral hit in 2019, helping build an audience for its flight reviews and travel comparisons.
What fans find now.
At The Points Guy, Nicky focuses on aviation, video and social media. His work includes multicabin reviews, races with fellow presenter Liam Spencer and the series Airplane Mode. On TikTok, he also shares his Jewish heritage through his Jewish Stuff series.
