Dec 19 Update: WestJet to add inflight Wi-Fi in 2014, Marriott MegaBonus returns, Great Aeroplan offer at Rexall

The second last day of updates for 2013 shows further quieting down of the industry save for the launch of Marriott's newest MegaBonus promotion.

News, Tips & Tricks
According to an article in the Edmonton Journal, WestJet is set to begin offering in flight Wi-Fi sometime in 2014. "CEO Gregg Saretsky confirmed in an interview that WestJet is in the final phases of negotiations with an inflight Internet provider". Air Canada has been testing inflight Wi-Fi between Montreal/Toronto and Los Angeles when in U.S. airspace for a couple of years but have not expanded on that service yet which means WestJet will more than likely be the first airline in Canada to offer it on Canadian flights. Here is a link to the article

The guys running the Milebuzz Canada thread over on FlyerTalk alerted us to a Rexall promotion that ends today where if you include tax (well here in Alberta where it is only 5%) you can get Aeroplan Miles for 1.4 cents each. The offer is 800 bonus Aeroplan Miles when you buy 2 Adidas or Playboy Body Spray or Shower Gel.

Dec 18 Update: Latest Flying Blue Promo Awards are out for 3 Canadian cities, 1,000 Free points with Air India, United Transcontinental Bonus

Third last day of updates for 2013!

News, Tips & Tricks
The latest set of Air France KLM Flying Blue Promo awards are out and this time there are three Canadian cities included instead of the two we saw earlier this month (which are still bookable until Dec 29) . The latest set of offers will be bookable as of December 30th and are good for award travel until the end of February, which is quite odd since the last set of awards had travel periods into March! The offers this time are for 50% off Business Class between Toronto or Montreal and Europe and 25% off economy class between Vancouver and Europe. All very good deals if you have the miles and want to travel to Europe in January or February. Don't have the miles? You could always consider transferring Starpoints earned via the Starwood Preferred Guest Credit Card from American Express to Flying Blue.

What are the promo awards? The promo awards are a discount of 25-50% off the regular Flying Blue mileage requirement for select AF KLM flights in select cabins.  Due to increases in the regular award mileage requirements earlier in the year the promo awards not as grand as they used to be but overall are they are still considered a great deal when compared to the regular mileage requirements or even to what mileage would be required in other programs for a similar ticket. Here is an example of this increased rate: previously you could get a round-trip Montreal-Europe Business Class promo award ticket for 50,000 miles but now it will cost you 62,500 miles. Overall this is still a great deal but of course not as great as it used to be. To take advantage of an award ticket deal you must book your promo award ticket between Dec 30 and Feb 26 for travel until Feb 28. More details can be found here.

SPG Bring On The Nights now open for registration! Earn up to 15,000 Bonus Starpoints

Back on November 25th we brought you the details of Starwood Preferred Guest's newest systemwide promotion called Bring On The Nights. At that time it wasn't open for registration but we are pleased to let you know that it is now open as of this morning! While not the strongest promotion from SPG or when compared to yesterdays promo announcement from Hyatt the one positive with Bring On The Nights is the lack of an excluded hotel list, that's right all Starwood properties are participating this time.

Here is the offer as found on our Starpoints Bonus Offer Page:

SPG Bring on the Nights: Earn 2,500 bonus Starpoints for every five eligible nights you stay (up to 10,000 bonus Starpoints and 20 eligible nights) at all Starwood hotels Worldwide. Plus, get an additional 5,000 bonus Starpoints when you hit 25 eligible nights.

Hyatt announces Winter 2014 promotion: Earn Free Nights or Bonus Gold Passport Points

Jeff Zidell, the VP of Hyatt Gold Passport passed along this announcement on FlyerTalk this morning.

Beginning January 15, 2014, there will be more ways to reward yourself with our Hyatt Gold Passport® Endless Possibilities promotion. You can earn a free night or thousands of bonus points after every five nights you stay with us by April 30.

Choose Free Nights
Earn a free night at any Category 1-4 Hyatt hotel worldwide after every five nights. Enjoy 4 free nights after you stay a maximum of 20 nights. Redeem your free nights with no blackout dates through July 31, 2014.

Or, Choose Bonus Points
Earn 5,000 Hyatt Gold Passport bonus points after your first five nights and thousands more for every additional five nights. After 20 nights, you’ll earn 50,000 bonus points. Here’s how the points add up:

Stay 5 Nights, Earn +5,000 Points = 5,000 Total Points Earned
Stay 10 Nights, Earn +10,000 Points = 15,000 Total Points Earned
Stay 15 Nights, Earn +15,000 Points = 30,000 Total Points Earned
Stay 20 Nights, Earn +20,000 Points = 50,000 Total Points Earned

So which will you choose — free nights or bonus points?

Registration begins on January 9, 2014, for stays from January 15, 2014 through April 30, 2014.

Along with the latest IHG Big Win it appears that the trend of lackluster hotel promos may be over as Hyatt even appears to be climbing out of the hole with this latest offering. In our opinion it is still not amazing like the Faster Free Nights of old (no Category cap, less nights required to earn free nights) it is definitely stronger than some of the other promos that have been announced (Starwood and Choice for examples)


What are your thoughts on this promotion? Which option will you choose? I personally am thinking I will go for the free night as I don't for see me having more than 5 nights at Hyatt during the first four months of 2014 and that free night is worth up to 15,000 points versus the 5,000 bonus in the points version. I'm not 100% sure yet though and at least I have until Jan 9 to decide!

As we mentioned last week, US Airways was planning to have one more bonus on buying Dividend Miles in 2013 and here it is:

Earn up to 100% Bonus Dividend Miles when you buy or gift Dividend Miles. Full details Until Dec 20, 13

Buy/Gift	Bonus
10,000 - 19,000 Miles	50%
20,000 - 29,000 Miles	75%
30,000 - 50,000 Miles	100%

Much like last week's share miles promo this one is only available for 5 days and is one of the easiest, cheapest and best ways to buy American AAdvantage miles. Why? Well in case you have been stuffed under a rock like Patrick Star you'll know that US Airways and American Airlines are merging and the program of choice when all is said and done will be the AAdvantage program. Ultimately your Dividend Miles will become AAdvantage miles if you don't use them while the two programs run separately. Overall whether you buy miles now and redeem them immediately for US Airways or Star Alliance awards until March 30 or wait until after that for a oneworld redemption, this is always one of the best buy miles offers to take advantage of as you are buying the miles for just under 1.9 cents each when you buy at the 100% level of 30,000 to 50,000 miles. Remember you can get business class to North Asia from North America for only 90,000 miles!
