Brandon: tech-head

Brandon is a flexible and cost-conscious traveller, equally happy to be flying to a new destination in Economy or the comforts of First Class - as long as it's a great deal. Value for money is important to him, but so are quality and versatility. For his travel gear and tech, Brandon tends to aim for high-end products that are worth the cost and will function well. But he'll also wait for a great sale, cashback or points deal to come along before buying (and also line it up with an upcoming trip to claim the tax back!).
