News, Tips & Tricks

RocketMiles.com, the online hotel booking engine that offers up thousands of miles for booking select hotels in select cities has expaned their presence. Originally offering 15 cities in the U.S. they quickly added other cities including Montreal and Vancouver here in Canada. Now you can add Toronto to the mix as the latest RocketMiles update saw them add three more cities: Toronto, Austin and Seattle. The booking site now has 23 cities in total. You can earn 1,000 miles on your first RocketMiles booking if you use my referral link to join RocketMiles.

Gary over at View from the Wing brings us the details of Alaska Airlines increasing the cost of Air France KLM award ticket redemptions made through the Mileage Plan program. The changes come into effect on June 11 and some examples of them are: North America to Europe in Business Class goes from 100,000 Mileage Plan miles to 125,000 and intra Europe awards jump to 50,000 from 45,000.
