Extra Bonus on buying Avianca TACA LifeMiles during the 100% Bonus Period (Targeted, YMMV)

Back on April 8th I showcased the latest version of Avianca TACA LifeMiles' 100% Buy Miles promotion and now there is a targeted offer floating around adding extra miles on top for those who have not been active with their accounts in the past 12 months.

The offer I got in my email:

It looks like LoyaltyLobby got it as well and John points out that you can take the targeted link from the email
https://www.lifemiles.com/eng/mya/prt/myaprtone.aspx?id=1&action=oto&codpro=LMAB06&ftnum=Numberhere
and replace Numberhere with your LifeMiles number to register for the offer. There is no guarantee that this will work and that you'll get the extra bonus miles but if you were contemplating buying LifeMiles before the end of the month to take advantage of this great offer it doesn't hurt to try to get the extra little bit of miles

It appears that using the method of adding your LifeMiles # to the URL does not work. LifeMiles definitely worked this one good to ensure only those targeted would get it.

Apr 22 Update: 1,000 Free HHonors Points (New Members), Accor Hotels Platinum Status (again), Aeroplan bonus for Miele appliances

Happy Monday Everyone! A decent amount of news and bonus offers to bring you today however the next two weeks there is a lot going to happen behind the scenes here so there may not be as many featured posts etc. on Rewards Canada until May. I will try to pass along the usual news and bonus offers however each and every business day!

News, Tips & Tricks
The best tip I can offer today is that if you are not a Hilton HHonors member yet and plan on some stays soon you can earn 1,000 Free HHonors points for joining the program via the Aeroflot/Hilton offer listed below in the Bonus Offers section. The offer is written out in Russian but the whole sign up process is done in English so it should be pretty easy to do.

LoyaltyLobby outlines another Le Club accorhotels instant Platinum status offer. You can sign up for the program here (and get the instant status) however you cannot use an email address that they already have on file, so you basically need to create a new account. The sign up page does not state it is a Platinum offer but once you sign up and log into your account you should be able to see that you have received the status. These offers come and go very quick so I would sign up now rather than wait as the offer can (and will be) pulled at anytime.

EVA Air announced over the weekend that they will be officially joining the Star Alliance on June 18th.This is good news for not only Aeroplan members but also the large contingent of United MileagePlus, Miles&More and other Star Alliance members in Canada. It is always good to have more earning and redeeming options that are actually travel based. ;-) EVA Air currently serves both Toronto and Vancouver from their hub in Taipei.

View from the Wing outlines the details on United Airlines increasing their ticket changes fees by $50. Domestic tickets will now cost US$150 to change and International tickets are now US$300.

Apr 19 Update: Aeroplan Earn Your Wings update, Bonus Miles+ Elite Qualiftying on China Southern & Scandic Hotels Systemwide bonus

Final day of updates for this week and this is what I have for you:

News, Tips & Tricks
In case you were one of the people who had issues signing up for the Air Canada Earn Your Wings promotion (I know two of you commented that you did) here is the response from Air Canada as their are no known technical issues:

Thank you for your email about our Earn Your Wings promotion. I've taken a look at the comments on your blog to better understand the nature of the issues experienced by two of your readers. Currently, the promotion is running without any known issues but the following may help to explain certain problems:
-On the afternoon of April 15, a fix was implemented addressing an issue where customers who have a hyphen or an apostrophe in their name could not register (they would of received an error saying their Aeroplan information is invalid).
-In order to register, the name that is provided needs to be an exact match to what would appear on someone's Aeroplan card. If it's not an exact match, an 'invalid information' message will appear.
-As the promotion needs to authenticate every user against the Aeroplan database, a good internet connection is required. We know of at least one occurence where due to what was likely an intermittent connection, someone's registration failed because the authentication check with the Aeroplan database timed-out. The easiest option is to try again.

In order to assist customers who may be experiencing issues, we've also set-up the following email address in order to provide customer support: earnyourwings@aircanada.ca. Should you have any other questions, I would be happy to answer them.

 Some decent bonus offers in the section below, there is a new Aeroplan Coast Hotels stay bonus (book online at Coast Hotels to make the most of it) and you can earn bonus SkyPearl Kilometers + Bonus Elite Qualifying segments on China Southern's Vancouver-Guangzhou route (and every other route they fly).

RC Credit Card Comparison Chart Updates

I managed to make some updates to several of Rewards Canada's Credit Card comparison charts yesterday. The updates were as follows:

I added the new National Bank World MasterCard to the 'All' Chart and the 'Travel Points' chart. Links to all the charts are below. This card is essentially an enhanced version of their Platinum MasterCard. The only difference that I can tell is that this card awards .5 more points per dollar spent in the $20,001 to $30,000 spend range and offers Travel Concierge Service due to the World branding.

A lot of the Capital One cards were updated as Capital One has allowed us to publish more information on the benefits side. Now we just have to wait for them to allow us to publish more details on the redemption side.

And finally, I don't know how this one escaped me but I never updated the Platinum Card from American Express after the big revamp last year so that has been done now as well.

Rewards Canada's Credit Card Comparison Charts:
1. Most Popular Travel Rewards Credit Cards
2. All Canadian Travel Rewards Credit Cards
3. Travel Points Credit Cards Only
4. Hybrid Credit Cards Only
5. Airline (Frequent Flyer) Credit Cards Only
6. Hotel (Frequent Guest) Credit Cards Only
7. Cash Back Credit Cards Only

Apr 17 Update: Diners Club Personal Assistant, Le Club accorhotels bonus points in Montreal, Ottawa & Toronto

Another quiet day here on RC as I focused on some consulting work and some upcoming Rewards Canada projects.

News, Tips & Tricks

The only news I have for you comes from one of my favourite credit cards, Diners Club. I got a letter yesterday from them outlining the travel services/benefits provided by the card. Most of them I knew about but I had never heard about the new concierge service they now offer call Diners Club Personal Assistant. Now there are numerous articles out there and I believe even in some of my reviews that I don't find concierge service to be a huge benefit offered by credit card companies (typically found on Visa Infinite and World MasterCard cards along with some Amex cards) and I usually don't make use of it on my other cards and I most likely won't use it with my Diners. I will check it out however and I believe there are some people who are so time crunched that these concierge services come in handy and I'm sure that those of us Diners Club cardholders (you can't apply for the card at this time) who need a concierge service will greatly appreciate this one especially considering that this card costs less per year then most other premium cards with similar benefits. If you are a Diners cardholder you can check out the Personal Assistant at www.dinersclubassistant.ca

Apr 16 Update: Our Air Miles page is back, Aeroflot Bonus Miles for Toronto-Moscow flights, Saudia Alfursan now on RC

Today was a short work day for me so I didn't get too much added to Rewards Canada:

News, Tips & Tricks
After a hiatus of over 5 years (or more) I am pleased to announce the return of Rewards Canada's Air Miles Bonus Mile Opportunities page. Many moons ago there were some legal wranglings that forced us to remove this page and other Air Miles items but in that time the relationship between Rewards Canada and Air Miles has changed significantly which warrents the relaunching of this page. The page will stand to benefit Rewards Canada readers, the Air Miles program and the Air Miles partners whose offers are posted. On the page you will find select major offers from Air Miles and its partners that are available to the generally all Air Miles members but not all offers as there are just too many to list along with many being have a short duration that by the time I post the offer it could be over. Check out the page here.

 

Saudia Airlines has announced that they will start service between Toronto and Riyadh this coming October. The service will operate on Mondays, Thursdays and Saturdays utilizing their new Boeing 777s. As with any new airline starting service to Canada, there is a page added to Rewards Canada's Bonus Offer section for that airline's loyalty program. So even though they are not starting service for another 6+ months I have added their Alfursan program today for those using the program so that you can find ways to earn more miles right away.

In the bonus offer section the primary Canadian offer posted has Aeroflot bonusing up their Toronto-Moscow route for June and July and the addition of Fairmont's Everyone's an Original Summer offer that I posted here on the blog yesterday.

Fairmont Hotels: Everyone's an Original Summer Promotion = Double Airline Miles & Discounts

Now that winter is pretty much over (well not here in YYC!), we will see the end of Fairmont's Everyone's an Original Winter promotion on April 30th which will be replacedd as it is every year, with the Everyone's an Original Summer promotion. The promotion has not changed for years, its still Double Airline miles but the rest of the offer usually changes on an almost weekly basis. Sometimes they throw in free nights or Food & Beverage credits depending on the week and the location.

To launch the latest version of this offer, Fairmont is offering up to 20% off or a free night depending on the location you book at. Fairmont President's Club members will enjoy an additional 5% off the Everyone's an Original summer rate. The 20% off/Free Night is good for bookings made by April 30th for stays until Sept. 30. In addition to these discounts you can earn double miles with participating airlines which for the summer version has a lot more of Fairmont's airline partners when compared to this past winter's offer.  The double miles is not affected by April 30 booking deadline and is available straight through to Sept. 30.

Here is the offer as it will appear on FFB's Fairmont page tomorrow and also provides access to the complete offering as listed above.

Transfer points to Aeroplan to earn up to 40,000 Bonus Aeroplan Miles

Aeroplan has once again brought back their partner transfer bonus that we saw last November and last spring. Basically what it entails is transferring points out of other select loyalty programs into your Aeroplan account. Just like in November, the offer is once again cumulative across all participating partners. That is, you can transfer from partners like CIBC, Starwood, Hertz and more (see the last graphic) and as long as the total Aeroplan miles deposited from all of them reaches one of the bonus target levels you will be awarded the respective bonus miles.

And just like last November, American Express Membership Rewards is unfortunately not included. so chances are I will not use the promo this time.

If you are a Starwood Preferred Guest collector you can really up the bonus by taking advantage of their 5,000 Mile bonus offer when you convert 20,000 Starpoints into Aeroplan. Which means in this promotion you can get 29,000 Aeroplan Miles for 20,000 Starpoints or if you transfer 20k four times, you'll get 125,000 Aeroplan Miles for 80,000 Starpoints. Of course I like to keep Starpoints for award nights or cash+points stays within the Starwood family but some of you may like this transfer option.

The offer as pulled from our Aeroplan Bonus Mile Promotions page is as follows:

Earn up to 40,000 Bonus Aeroplan Miles when you convert points from a wide selection of Aeroplan partner loyalty programs (hotel, car rental, credit card and points.com). Bonuses are as follows and are awarded on a cumulative basis. Convert Points to
5,000 Aeroplan Miles to earn a 1,000 Mile bonus
10,000 Aeroplan Miles to earn a 2,000 Mile bonus
20,000 Aeroplan Miles to earn 4,000 Mile bonus
50,000 Aeroplan Miles to earn a 10,000 Mile bonus
100,000 Aeroplan Miles to earn a 25,000 Mile bonus
150,000 Aeroplan Miles to earn a 40,000 Mile bonus
Full details Valid until May 13, 13
