Wow a day where the news almost outnumbers the bonuses offers!
News, Tips & Tricks
Just in case you missed this email, Club Sobeys sent
out a notice for linking your Air Miles account to your Club Sobeys
account. The main reason you would want to do this is for the chance to
win 5,000 Air Miles for doing so and also for a few days of auto
conversion of Club Sobeys points to Air Miles. The points convert at a
rate of 14 Club Sobeys Points to 1 Air Mile which means without bonuses
your earning 1 Air Mile for every $14 spent. This auto conversion will
start on September 12th and I assume will run until Club Sobeys is wound
down at which point you'll just provide your Air Miles card when you
shop at Sobeys. Find out more here
Jet Airways is making some slight changes to the
earning structure for flights in their JetPrivilege program. They will
now award a minimum amount of miles for flights under 500 actual flights
miles. In most cases this should work out better for members as the
previous earning schedule was strictly a percentage of the miles based
on the fare paid. For example a flight between Chennai and Bangalore
will now earn 500 miles on Jet Airways or 375 miles fon JetKonnect
whereas under the old earning structure you could earn no more than 168
miles. Find out more here.
Jetlines has been quiet since November of last year (see our post here) but the new ultra low cost carrier has it sights on flights within Western
Canada when it plans to launch next spring. Chances are it won't have a
reward program initially (or ever) but if they do launch the good news
for those of us who do like our Frequent Flyer programs we should see
some heavy discounting from Air Canada and WestJet to compete with this
new airline. (Source Global News)
Two more new Air Canada routes to let you know about:
Montreal - San Salvador, Bahamas and Ottawa-Samana. Both are winter
seasonal routes. (Source Airlineroute.net YUL | YOW)

Nov 28 Update: Lindner Nights added to RC, KLM Worldwide seat sale and a new ultra low cost carrier in Canada?
Here is your Thursday round up:
News, Tips & Tricks
We added a new hotel reward program to the arsenal of frequent guest programs that we cover on Rewards Canada. That program is for the German based Lindner Hotels and Resorts. The program is called Lindner Nights and right now if you join the program and link your account to your social media accounts they will give you 2,000 points for free! While not enough for a free night they do run cash+points offers and many of them right now only require 2,000 points plus a small cash amount. You can find the Lindner Nights page on Rewards Canada here and for more details on the Cash+Points offer see our post over on the Frequent Flyer Bonuses blog.
Aeroplan has a short term bonus for shopping at Home Hardware. From today until Saturday you can earn 3x the miles on for every $2 you spend at Home Hardware, Building Centre and Home Furniture locations. Full details
Looks like another group of ex airline execs are looking to start up a new airline here in Canada. JetLines, based out of Vancouver hopes to bring Ultra Low Cost flights (think Ryanair, Spirit Airlines etc) to Western Canada. It is unlikely they'll have a Frequent Flyer program at launch or perhaps ever as many of the ULC airlines don't offer one except for Spirit Airlines and few others. Source: Financial Post
Travel Deals
KLM has launched a pretty awesome Worldwide sale for flights out of Canada. London can be had for $825 all in and Dubai for $985 all in, both from Eastern Canada. For Calgary/Vancouver departures, $200 needs to be added to those fares. Many other destinations are also available. Tickets must be booked by Dec 2 for travel Jan 1 - May 6, 2014 and include a Sunday night. Find all the details at KLM.com
