October 7 Update: Double Miles & More Miles on all Lufthansa flights, 50,000 bonus PC Optimum points when you spend $150 with Shoppers online & 9 new bonus offers

 

 

As you know a big part of Rewards Canada and pretty much 99.9% of our global site FrequentFlyerBonuses.com is tracking and the posting of bonus offers from all the various travel loyalty programs around the world. One type of bonus that was a rarity up until a few months ago was systemwide bonus for flying on an airline. Pre-COVID airlines were in pretty good shape so they didn't have to entice customers to fly with mileage promotions. Now that's changed due to the pandemic and airlines are doing anything and everything to get butts in seats - or at the very least sway those who are going to fly from competing airlines to their own. So we've seen the re-emergence of systemwide flight bonuses from many airlines around the world and one of the latest to do so is Lufthansa. Right now they are offering double miles on all flights in all bookings classes as long as your register for the offer and then book by October 31 for travel November 1 to December 31. Lufthansa are flying several flights per week to Canada so if you are needing to travel and Lufthansa was on your radar for those flights and you don't credit to another frequent flyer program this promotion is for you! Register online for the promotion (Registration is required then book your tickets online at Lufthansa.com

February 27 Update: Shangri-La Hotels extending Golden Circle Elite status due to Coronavirus, Lufthansa to fly Calgary-Frankfurt with their Eurowings subsidiary & 5x More Rewards Points for Coast Hotels stays

If you listened to the latest Rewards Canada Podcast episode you'll have heard us discussing hotel loyalty programs extending elite status for members in China or those who travel to China frequently. Shangri-La Hotels is the latest to do so and they are going beyond just residents of or frequent travellers to China and giving all their elite members an extension of status. We received our status via the Platinum Card from American Express so it would automatically renew anyways but this still a great move by the hotel chain in just extending it for everyone!

Looks like the with the sale of Condor Airlines to Poland's LOT, Lufthansa will be bringing in their charter carrier Eurowings to the Calgary-Frankfurt route for the 2020 Summer season. It will operate 4x weekly for most of the season and can be booked directly with Lufthansa (great for Miles & More, Aeroplan and other Star Alliance members). Details aren't out yet if you can book direct with Eurowings and choose to credit to Eurowings' own loyalty program - the cool named Boomerang Club. We cover Boomerang Club on our global site (see that page here) and will add it shortly to the Rewards Canada site if it does become available. If I'm not mistaken this will be first city served in Canada by Eurowings. The flight will operate with an A330-200. (Source RoutesOnline)
