Book hotel stays in Vancouver, Calgary & Edmonton and receive American Express or Amazon gift cards

You may recall many of our posts in the past about BeVancouver - the website tied in with Vancouver Tourism that offered American Express gift cards when you booked hotels via their site (And the value was really good) Well that offer has returned however it is no longer BeVancouver rather it is now StayVancouver (HT Points, Miles & Bling) and not only is it Vancouver. As well in the past we let you know about similar offers in Calgary and Edmonton as those are still around!

Vancouver

November 6 Update: Air France KLM Flying Blue going revenue based, beVancouver Amex Gift Card offer returns & more


Air France KLM have announced changes to their Flying Blue program that will take place on April 1, 2018. The big news, is that they are following suit of many other airline programs and moving to a strict revenue based earning system rather than distance based. Earning for flights will be as follows:
Ivory members (Base level): 4 miles per EUR
Silver members: 6 miles per EUR
Gold members: 7 miles per EUR
Platinum members: 8 miles per EUR
Earning elite status will change to earning Experience Points (XP) rather than status miles/qualifying flights. Hit 100 XP in a rolling 12 month period and you'll get Silver status, 180 for Gold or 300 for Platinum. The key term now is rolling 12 month period, rather than calendar year. This will kick in on April 1.


Mileage expiry is also changing, the 24 month rule stays in place but all miles earned remain valid if you fly with Air France KLM or other SkyTeam airlines or use a Flying Blue credit card once every 2 years however miles earned on their own from flying non-SkyTeam partners, car rentals, hotels etc. will continue to be valid as long as you earn from those partners once every two years if you don't have an AF KLM SkyTeam flight or credit card purhcase. Make sense?

They don't reveal too much on the redemption side other than all seats will be available, which we can assume will be on a sliding scale much like Aeroplan's Market Fare awards and they will also give you the option to use Miles+Cash for awards (up to 25% of an award can be paid for with cash if you don't have enough miles) Promo Awards will continue however under the new moniker of Promo Reward Tickets. The redemption options are slated to go live in June 2018.

I'm sure we'll write about this even more as April and June of 2018 approach!

Find out more about the Flying Blue changes here.

Finally we released another 'Tips & Tricks' post today. We look at how you can maximize the value of the RBC Avion airline award chart. Many of you can probably tell from posts of past and this one that we aren't huge fans of this redemption option with the card but when a good portion of Canadian's hold an Avion card it makes sense to discuss how you can maximize it!
