 Long time followers of Rewards Canada will know our charity partner very well! That partner is Give A Mile who have recently added United MileagePlus as a donation partner. The addition of United as a partner was key as Give A Mile recently received charity status in the U.S. and can operate south of the border with the same mission that have done here in Canada for many years now!

Give A Mile 2020 Flight Hero Christmas Campaign: Help Rewards Canada raise 50,000 points for flights of compassion

 

Rewards Canada's charity partner Give A Mile has launched their annual Flight Hero Christmas Campaign. We have covered Give A Mile many times before on the blog and our podcast but as a quick refresher here is what Give A Mile is all about:

October 9 Update: Purchase Give A Mile's limited edition Pilsner to help fund flights of compassion, Amex Centurion Lounge in JFK now open & Turkish Airlines further delays Vancouver launch

 Shout to our friends at Give A Mile who sent us their limited edition Reservoir Pigs Pilsner brewed by Calgary's Village Brewery. A portion of each sale of this beer goes to Give A Miles to help provide their flights of compassion. As you may or may not know we have been partnered with Give A Mile for several years now and super proud to support them in any way we can and we do have to thank our readers as well who have donated miles or cash to them to help fund their fligths of compassion. The charity recently provided their 712th flight of compassion which is a huge accomplishment considering they were at 300 flights when we starting working together. Be sure to order some of this brew to help them out! Learn more about and order the beer here

American Express opened up their newest Centurion Lounge today. Their new flagship lounge is open at New York's JFK airport. It's located in Terminal 4 and that's the terminal that WestJet is in so this is good news for those who hold The Platinum Card from American Express as you'll be able to access this lounge once WestJest resumes flights to JFK. Learn more about the lounge here. And check out this video on twitter of the very first person to visit the new lounge.

It has been awhile since we provided HNN's hotel occupancy statistics for Canada. Now that we are in fall and starting to see higher rates of COVID-19 cases the overall occupancy rates are dropping again. We peaked in the 40% range back in August but the latest stats for September 27 to October 3 show occupancy down to 34%! (Source HNN)

For the week ending with 3 October, British Columbia (43.2%) was the only province to reach or surpass a 40% occupancy level.

Among the major markets, Vancouver saw the highest occupancy level (34.2%).

The lowest occupancy among provinces was reported in Quebec (19.7%). At the market level, the lowest occupancy was reported in Montreal (16.0%).

Give A Mile 2019 Flight Hero Christmas Campaign - Help Rewards Canada raise 50,000 miles for flights of compassion

Rewards Canada's charity partner Give A Mile has launched their annual Flight Hero Christmas Campaign. We have covered Give A Mile many times before on the blog and our podcast but as a quick refresher here is what Give A Miles is all about:

Established in Calgary, Canada in February 2013, Give A Mile is dedicated to bringing together the terminally ill, or critically sick, with family members or close friends by crowdfunding airline flights through micro-donations of travel loyalty miles. We work across Canada. We are 100% donation model so all miles donated go to flights.  We are 100% volunteer team with a Big Hairy Audacious Goal of giving 1 billion miles to families that need these flights.  A federally registered not-for-profit agency in Canada, Give A Mile is recognized as a charity by Aeroplan’s Beyond Miles program, and offers tax receipts for money donations to donors through an agreement with the Place2Give Foundation.

For the 2019 Flight Hero Christmas Campaign Give A Mile's goals are to raise enough miles to provide 60 flights of compassion. 

Rewards Canada has signed on to be a Flight Hero for the 2019 campaign and our Flight Hero goal is to raise 50,000 miles!

We are asking our readers to help us reach that goal! Rewards Canada has donated 10,000 miles to kick start our portion of the campaign and as we do each year we ask the Rewards Canada community to help Give A Mile and Canadians in dire circumstances get the flights they need to visit their loved ones. Whether it is 40 of you at 1,000 miles each or any other combination - any donation is greatly appreciated!

Donate today via Rewards Canada's Flight Hero Page on Give A Mile

To donate simply click the link above and then click on Donate to this Story

 

You'll go through a couple of steps and be able to choose which program to donate from and once your donation is complete the total should be updated on the Give A Mile site within a few minutes.

Give A Mile and Rewards Canada appreciate and are very thankful for any and all donations!

Finally we ask that you comment below after you donate! Don't be shy, let us and our readers know how much you donated and feel free to pass along any comments or well wishes to Give A Mile!

Give A Mile Flight Hero Christmas Campaign - Help a recipient visit their dad diagnosed with Stage 4 Cancer

 We wanted to update the Rewards Canada community on our progress with this year's Give A Mile Flight Hero Campaign. As you all know we have worked closely with Give A Mile for several years now and we hold this charity close to our hearts. Every year as the Christmas season approaches Give A Miles launches their holiday campaign to boost donations to give flights of compassion to those who otherwise could not afford it.

When we kicked off the 2018 campaign we didn't have a specific flight of compassion assigned to us but Give A Mile has let us know we do have one now.

Here is a message from our campaign flight recipient:

My dad has been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. I would be grateful for the opportunity to keep my promise to my dad. I know it would give him something to smile about and also I can be support to my mother who has had to bare this heavy weight for months. Thank you so much for your consideration. We believe in miracles and opportunity gives us some comfort and hope

Our goal as a 2018 Flight Hero is to reach donations of 100,000 Aeroplan Miles. We started the campaign off with a 50,000 mile donation from ourselves and our readers have kicked in an additional 5,500 miles plus some cash from Reason2Roam! Actually we'll make that 6,500 miles as one reader mentioned they donated 1,000 miles via the general link!

We are asking our readers to help us reach that goal of 100,000 miles! We only need 44,500 more miles. So whether it's 45 of you at 1,000 miles each or any other combination it doesn't matter! Help us help Give A Mile and Canadians in dire circumstances the flights they need to visit their loved ones.

Donate today via Rewards Canada's Flight Hero Page on Give A Mile

You'll go through a couple of steps and be able to choose which program to donate from and once your donation is complete the total should be updated on the Give A Mile site within a few minutes.

Give A Mile and Rewards Canada appreciate and are very thankful for any and all donations!

November 14 Update: Podcast Episode 35 is here with Give A Mile, first Air Canada 737 MAX routes, 8 new bonus offers

Podcast Episode 35 is here! You can listen to or download it on Apple iTunes, Google Play, our website and Soundcloud. In this episode we welcome back Kevin Crowe of giveamile.org. Give A Mile should be well known to many of our readers now and it's great to have him back on the show. Kevin discusses what Give A Mile is all about and tells us about their Christmas Campaign where they want to raise enough miles or cash to donate 50 flights of support!

About a month ago we brought you details of WestJet's first Boeing 737 MAX 8 flight but they aren't the only airline in Canada to order the plane. Air Canada is also bringing them in and their first revenue flight with their new 737 MAX 8 will be from Montreal to Calgary on December 11. It is kind of interesting that Air Canada is putting the plane onto the Calgary route first - almost seems like a jab at WestJet and saying "Hey we've got the plane too and we're going to fly it into your territory" The planes will also fly between Montreal and Vancouver, Montreal and Toronto as well as Toronto to Ottawa. (Source Routes Online)

We're going to keep this reminder going in each update until Christmas:
Check out the Give A Mile Flight Hero campaign! The charity can really use donations of miles to help provide flights to those who otherwise would be unable to travel to visit terminally ill or critically sick family and friends. Rewards Canada has pledged to raise 100,000 miles and we are half way there! We are putting the call out to all of our fans, readers and even new visitors, if you can give please do so. It can be as little as 1,000 miles! You can find out more and donate here.
