Oct 2 Update: Up to 100K+ Avios for Canada-Europe Flights, Aeroplan Transfer bonus, up to 6K Gold Points per night and more!

News, Tips & Tricks
Today was a crazy day for new bonus offers, so that is where my focus was. In fact I can't recall the last time that so many new offers were released at the start of the month. I tried to get to as many as I could today but there are still tons more where these came from! Be sure to take your time with the entire list of promos below as there are tons of good offers like the increased sign up bonus for joining Aegean (half way to Star Alliance Silver status with the promo!), the Aeroplan bonus on Points.com transfers (better than no bonus if you know what I mean and want to get rid of orphaned miles/points), ANA's Double Miles between North America and Asia, a couple more Hilton Airline offers and Emirates' October Miles Accelerator offers which includes Toronto to Dubai..

The best bonus offers to look out for however are Carlson Hotels' fall promo that will award up to 6,000 bonus points per night and the British Airways 100,000+ Bonus Avios promo for premium class fares between Canada and Europe.

WestJet and RBC have officially released the World Elite version of their MasterCard which replaces the World version. I will have more details on it tomorrow or you can check it out on the RBC website here.

Elite Status tip of day: Another Accor Hotels Le Club instant status promotion is out, the page doesn't state it specificaly but if you complete the registration process you should be awarded Platinum status with the program. These offers come around every once and while and dissappear pretty quick so jump on this sooner than later. Apply for it here. Then you can leverage that Platinum Status to get yourself status with Best Western Rewards with their Status Match No Catch offer. (Tip of the hat to View from the Wing)  Offer is dead
