News, Tips & Tricks
Relatively quiet today as I am travelling to Toronto for the launch event of the American Express SimplyCash Cards that were announced here on Rewards Canada yesterday. If you want to see pictures of the event be sure to follow us on Instragram and/or Twitter.
American Express® AeroplanPlus®* Platinum Card / American Express® AeroplanPlus®*Gold Card is no longer available as of August 26th, 2020. For more information, please visithttps://www.americanexpress.com/ca/en/credit-cards/aeroplan-cards/
Sad news for Virgin Atlantic Flying Club members in the Vancouver area, Virgin Atlantic has announced that they will not continue with their summer seasonal Vancouver-London service that you have seen for the past three summers. This is unfortunate as Virgin tried Toronto and it didn't work and now Vancouver isn't working. It is a bit of a surprise as this summer saw VS extend the duration of the flight which to some indicated a success but alas Virgin can probably utilize the aircraft on a more profitable route elsewhere.
Starwood Hotels announced a new program for travel and meeting planners (and non-corporate SPG members too) today.) Called SPG Pro it is set to debut in October 2014, this new program will offer meeting and travel professionals SPG elite status, upgrades and Starpoints for B2B business booked at any of Starwood’s nearly 1,200 properties around the world. Plus going forward, any SPG member who books a group stay, event or corporate business meeting, regardless of if they are a travel professional or not, will earn Starpoints and status for the business they influence. (Thanks to Cynthia at Starwood Canada for the details!)
Richer Rewards for Booking Business with Starwood
Beginning today, meeting and travel professionals can immediately register for SPG Pro at www.spg.com/pro Registered professionals, as well as SPG Members who influence group, event and corporate travel, will begin earning Starpoints for business booked starting in October 2014. Additionally, SPG Pro marks the first time accredited travel agents will have the opportunity to earn Starpoints and elite status with SPG.
The more members book the more they earn, which means access to everything SPG has to offer and reaching elite status even faster through combined B2B and personal bookings.
