July 30 Update: WestJet to add 767s in 2015, Thai Airways reverses Award Chart devaluations, Starwood targeted bonuses return

WestJet confirms the purchase of widebody aircraft and a program that listened to their members!

News, Tips & Tricks
Big news from the folks at WestJet! As we mentioned a few weeks ago, they were exploring adding widebody aircraft to their fleet and as of yesterday this has been confirmed! WestJet will be buying four 767-300ERW aircraft from Boeing (used planes that will be retrofitted) that will enter service in 2015. After flights within Canada and the U.S. the planes will be used on Alberta-Hawaii flights once they receive their ETOPS ratings and we can only assume that they will be used on Europe or other long haul International flights in the summer of 2016. (Source WestJet)


Sometime ago we brought you the news that Thai Airways Royal Orchid Plus was going to have a major award chart devaluation. Well it appears they have listened to all the customer complaints and reversed their decision to do so! I am sure that many of you are like me and wish the North American programs that have had devaluations over the past few years would have done the same! (Source View from the Wing)

More Aeroplan or Star Alliance flight earning and redemption options keep coming up. The latest is Air Canada adding flights between Montreal and Curacaoin January 2015. (Source: Airlineroute.net)

In the bonus offer section we see the return of SPG's targeted free night or bonus Starpoints offers. You can follow the link and input your SPG number to see if you are eligible. For me I had the free night offer last year after one stay but this year no luck as I was not targeted.

June 18 Update: mbna Choice MasterCard update, Thai Airways decimates their award flights, Starwood Asia Pacific sale

#RackUpRewards twitter chat, Cathay Pacific Upgrade Auction and more!

News, Tips & Tricks
We reached out to TD mbna for some clarification on the end of their partnership with Choice Hotels for the mbna Choice Privileges MasterCard to see what happens to those cardholders who have the card or just applied by June 9th to get the larger sign up bonus. The good news is that it looks like you can keep the card until Sep 27 and also get the larger sign up bonus as long you meet the minimum spend by July as was requried int he promotion.
"Choice Hotel customers will have all the same benefits of the program up until the 27th of September. Any regular or bonus points they incur will be added to their account. All customers will receive a notification of the termination by August. This notification will explain the termination and what will be happening to their Choice Hotel points. The notification will also cover the terms and conditions of their new rewards program."

Thai Airways is making some drastic, negative changes to their Royal Orchid Plus flight awards this September. I know there aren't that many Canadian's using Royal Orchid Plus but for those of you who are should look at cashing out your miles before September 1st as many award flights are going up in price (as much as double, for example Bangkok-Los Angeles in First Class goes from 230,000 ROP miles to 460,000 ROP miles!)

June 20 Update: Fast Track to SPG Gold Elite Status, Delta Hotels sale, Thai Airways discounted award tickets

I hope that everyone else in the YYC area are staying as dry as possible after our torrential downpour overnight and this morning. The sun is actually peaking through the clouds as I write this! Thoughts go out to those in Canmore, Black Diamond, Turner Valley and High River whose homes are being devastated by the flash flooding that is occurring.

News, Tips & Tricks

Yesterday LoyaltyLobby passed along an offer for a fast track to Gold Elite Status with the Starwood Preferred Guest program. Now the offer is meant for World Elite and World MasterCard holders in the Asia Pacific region who register and complete one stay at a Starwood Hotel in the Asia Pacific region. However, similar to an offer from Hilton over a year ago you only need to input the first 6 digits of the credit card and these can be found on Google so there is a potential for anyone to take advantage of this new SPG offer. I did take advantage of the Hilton offer and am now Gold until early next year with the HHonors program, it worked for me but for some others it didn't. So if you have an upcoming stay in the Asia Pacific region you can try the same thing with this SPG promotion. There are no guarantees that it will work but it doesn't hurt to try. Find out more here.
