July 18 Update: Major changes coming to LifeMiles award flight mileage requirements, Marriott updates its Plus Points promotion

A busier day to close off the week! Aeroplan contest winner, not so good news from Avianca and Marriott… News, Tips & Tricks Congrats to Jason S. of Newfoundland who is the winner of our Aeroplan Turns 30 contest!

You can find out more at www.marriottrewardspluspoints.com Avianca LifeMiles sent out emails to their members over the past 24 hours or so giving advance notice of some upcoming award chart changes that take effect on October 15th…
