Here's your Rewards Canada Daily update! Your daily dose (or near daily dose) of loyalty program, credit card and travel news, bonuses, deals and more. This update is brought to you by the HSBC World Elite Mastercard.
Do you have Hilton Honors Diamond status? If so you should have received an email from Hilton letting you know that you can gift Gold elite status to a family member or friend for a year. This is normally a benefit that you receive as a Diamond member after you complete 60 stays so this is a nice gift for this year where it would be tough to reach that many nights.
- Gift Hilton Honors Elite Status to a loved one. Hilton Honors is extending a one-time opportunity to its global Diamond and Lifetime Diamond members. Beginning next week until January 31, 2021, these elite members will be able to gift status for one year to a family member or friend. Typically, the Elite Status Gifting benefit is reserved for members who complete a standard, annual night requirement.

Air Canada has become the first Canadian airline to offer Biometric boarding for flights departing the US to Canada. Right now if you depart from San Francisco on an Air Canada flight you can choose to use the Biometric boarding option. Air Canada plans to expand the option to more U.S. airports as time progresses.
Biometric boarding enables customers to present themselves at the boarding gate, have their photo taken which is then validated and confirmed to their passport document details and photo which are already captured via the U.S. Customs and Border Protection's (CBP) Traveler Verification Service. In a matter of seconds, CBP's biometric facial comparison service will automatically compare the new photo of the traveller to images that the traveller has already provided to the government, such as passport and visa photos. Overall, the use of facial biometrics provides travellers with a secure, touchless process that streamlines air travel.

Here's another YYC American Express Cobalt Card confirmed multiplier. It's an amazing bakery on 17th Avenue near downtown called The Black Sheep Fine Foods and Patisserie. My recent purchase there earned the 5x eats and drinks multiplier on the Cobalt Card. You can find this and many more confirmed 5x locations from across Canada and the world on our page here. You can order from Black Sheep online as well although I'm not 100% sure if online will count as 5x.
