The Ultimate Guide to Credit Card & Loyalty Programs for the All Inclusive Vacationer
– RewardsCanada.ca
Here’s an excerpt of this new guide we released on Rewards Canada today:As Canadians we know what it’s like to live with long, drawn out winters. We dread the short daylight hours and the biting wind. So how do we as a nation battle the season we look forward to before Christmas but are sick of by the first week of January? We travel. We travel to warmer sun drenched locales and for many of us that means an all inclusive vacation. Canadian winters and all inclusive vacations go hand in hand. However, when it comes to travel loyalty programs and credit cards, all inclusive vacations are neglected. Have you ever seen a credit card ad detailing an all inclusive vacation? No, it’s almost always flights and to a lesser extend hotel stays. That’s because we’ve been trained to think that credit card and travel reward programs are just for flights. And we’re trained that way because that’s what most programs used to be. Think about it, you ask any Canadian on the street to name a travel reward program and you’re almost guaranteed you’ll only hear Aeroplan or AIR MILES…British Airways Executive Club: 35% Bonus Avios when you transfer hotel points into Avios until December 2
– RewardsCanada.ca
British Airways Executive Club has brought back their transfer bonus for moving points from hotel programs into Avios. The bonus is 5% more than we saw this past spring as it is 35% this time which we haven’t seen since March of 2018. It good for six major hotel programs: Marriott Bonvoy, IHG Rewards Club, Radisson Rewards, Shangri-La’s Golden Circle, MeliáRewards and Best Western Rewards. If you are looking to boost your BA balance your best bet is converting Marriott Bonvoy points. 60,000 Marriott Bonvoy points will get you 20,000 Avios + the 5,000 bonus miles from Marriott + the 35% for a total of 33,750 Avios. Although unlikely, there may just be enough time for you to get in on this even if you don’t have enough Marriott points by grabbing the Marriott Bonvoy American Express Card with its 50,000 point Welcome bonus and getting some spend on it right away. This is also a good way to use up orphaned points in these hotel programs that you may never use otherwise!For details on some of the best ways to use British Airways Executive Club Avios read our article on Utilizing British Airways’ Executive Club for flights in North America Offer details35% Bonus Avios when you convert hotel points to British Airways Executive Club…
