Last week I reported the launch of Air Italy and the planned expansion with flights to the US and Asia. This week, there are fares available for business class flights from Cairo via Milan to New York JFK from $599 round-trip for days in July and August. It’s unclear whether this is a (poorly advertised) […]
Carlson Rezidor Hotels and their Club Carlson Rewards program had a rough few years: After getting a lot of attention for their aggressive changes to the rewards program and a high-value credit card offer, they devalued the program and removed the credit card benefits, turning many fans away. Now, they are back with regular promotions
The year is young, but the hotel promotions keep coming! Wyndham is launching another chance to earn 15,000 points, enough for a free night, with only two stays. After having similar promotions with Visa Checkout and MasterPass, this time any payment method will do! Given the many cheap Wyndham properties, 15,000 points (valued at $150)
Accor offers some of the best hotel promotions in the industry – and the next one is hear. It tends to switch between deeply discounted “Private Sales” and point promotions and this month it’s time for a point promotion: You can earn 6,000 points (worth $145) with three stays of 2 nights each! With many
As the year comes to an end, hotel loyalty programs announce their new promotions for the new year. Hilton has launched their “points unlimited” offering 2,000 points per stay between January 1st and April 30th, 2018. You’ll earn an additional 10,000 points after 5 stays and there is no limit for the number of points
InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) unveiled their next Accelerate Promotion for January-April 2018. The personalized promotions are different for each member and in my case would offer up to 17,500 points for a single night stay and a total of 59,200 points if I meet all goals! Despite the issues I’ve encountered with previous IHG Accelerate promotions,
Each quarter, the IHG Rewards Club PointBreaks promotion is hotly anticipated: You can book hotels for only 5,000 points (worth $25) per night around the world, one of the best bargains among hotel award programs. From today, October 30th, 2017 through January 31st, 2018, you can book a free night at more than 100 hotels
Accor Hotels’ latest Super Sale offers 30% off and free breakfast at over 2,900 hotels around the world. You can book by October 20th for stays from December 8th through March 11th, 2018. I love Accor Hotels’ Private Sales – they happen 3-4 times a year, usually offer the best deals throughout the year and
Accor Hotels has frequent “Private Sales” with significant discounts for its hotels around the world and I make it a habit to book upcoming stays during these sales. The current sale allows bookings until September 14th, 2017 for stays through next year at up to 40% off with different times and discounts depending on the
Wyndham Rewards, is running a promotion until October 31, 2017: Book through their mobile app and pay through MasterPass and earn 7,500 bonus points for up to two stays. You can earn 15,000 points with two stays, enough for one free night at any of 8,000 Wyndham Hotels worldwide – or up to 5 nights
The AirAsia ASEAN Pass made my ASEAN Explorer Trip possible – I only paid $360 for 11 flights of 6,541 miles around South East Asia! In more than 20 years of traveling and 4 Million miles of flying, these were the cheapest flights I’ve done! But there are some pitfalls with the ASEAN pass, like availability, fees and conditions. So,
IHG Rewards Club just published their PointBreaks list for stays through October, 31, 2017, including 107 hotels available for 5,000 points/night. It’s IHG’s most popular rewards promotion and a great deal. The list for this quarter is a little disappointing for me, with only 4 properties in Asia, 11 in Europe and one for Africa
