March 23 Update: Canada dropping pre arrival testing for fully vaccinated travellers and new Amex Offers for Hugo Boss

Here's your Rewards Canada Daily update! Your near daily dose of loyalty program, credit card and travel news, bonuses, deals and more.

Today we are mostly playing catch up on some items from last week!

The Government of Canada announced last week that as of April 1st pre-arrival testing for travel into Canada via air, land or sea will no longer be required for fully vaccinated travellers. This is great news for those returning home as it is one less step or item to have to worry about when coming back from vacation or business outside of the country! Do note fully vaccinated travellers may be subject to random testing upon arrival into Canada. (Source Government of Canada)

A new Amex Offers offer came out last week for Hugo Boss. There are two variations - one provides bonus points and the other a statement credit. Personally I received the bonus points version on the Cobalt Card.

Spend at least $250 in qualifying purchases using your registered Card at participating Boss Store location(s) or at www.hugoboss.com/ca by 15/05/2022 and earn 5,000 bonus Membership Rewards® points one- time. Terms apply.

Spend at least $250 in qualifying purchases using your registered Card at participating BOSS Store location(s) or at www.hugoboss.com/ca by 15/05/2022 and earn a one-time $50 statement credit. Terms apply.

Simply log in to your Amex account or go onto the Amex app to see if you these offers have been sent to you and to register for them. 

You can find this and many more offers in our Guide to American Express Canada 'Amex Offers'
