One Mile at a Time
Ben Schlappig launched One Mile at a Time from his college dorm room in 2008 — not as a business, but as a hobby. He’d been flying back and forth between the US and Germany since childhood, and as a teenager discovered the world of miles and points and what premium travel those miles could unlock. Weekend mileage runs, obsessive research, and eventually redeeming miles for Lufthansa first class to Europe: that was the spark.
