November 16 Update: New Sears Club launched today, Marriott to buy Starwood and Hainan Airlines to serve Calgary?

Of course the big news today is the Marriott Starwood deal but we do have other things to bring you:

News, Tips & Tricks
The new Sears Club program launched today! Now you don't have to have Sears branded credit card to earn points. The new program offers:
"1 Sears Club Point for every 1 dollar you spend* at Sears, whether you use cash, debit or any credit card. accepted by Sears Canada, when you present your new Sears Club™ Rewards Card." 
To celebrate they are offering 3x points until the end of the year. You can sign up for the new Sears Club program here. Now we just have to wait to see what the credit card offerings for this program will be from Scotiabank!


Although not concrete it looks like Calgary will be getting their first direct service to China in June of 2016 and its not on Air Canada! If applications go throught it will be China's Hainan Airlines offering 4x weekly service between Calgary and Beijing. Find out more here.


Also on the news of Calgary, Air Canada is going all 787 service for Europe flights in the summer of 2016 as will AC's Toronto to Tokyo Narita service. (Source Airlineroute.net)

October 19 Update: Scotia buys Sears Card portfolio from Chase, Sonesta Hotels added to Rewards Canada

Election day here in Canada and lots of things going on behind the scenes mean our daily update is being posted later than usual today!


News, Tips & Tricks
Last Thursday news broke the Scotiabank had bought JP Morgan Chase's credit card portfolio here in Canada. There was mixed news as to whether it was just the Sears card portfolio being bought seeing as that agreement ends in November or if it was all of Chase's cards including Amazon and Marriott. We have spoken with both Chase and Scotiabank representatives and have confirmed it is strictly the Sears Card portfolio that Scotia has bought. This is good news as I know some of you were worried about what might happen to your Marriott Premier Visa in particular. We don't have the details yet as to what the Sears cards from Scotia will be like but hopefully they keep the Voyage MasterCard as it was a decent card.


We added yet another new loyalty program to Rewards Canada today. Sonesta Hotels Travel Pass. This hotel chain has over 30 hotels in the U.S.,  4 in the Caribbean, over 15 in South America and several Egyptian properties. They have an elite status match so if you hold status in another hotel program be sure to get it matched before you stay with Sonesta! See our Travel Pass bonus points page here.
