IHG Rewards Club: Double Airline Miles on all IHG stays Worldwide (Sep 1 - Dec 31)

So far we have brought you the details IHG Rewards Club latest systemwide promotion called Accelerate. That promotion offers members the chance to earn 50,000 or more IHG Rewards Club points. And we also brought you the details of the Quadruple Aeroplan Miles offer. But what happens though if you don't stay at IHG hotels very often and prefer to credit those stays to your favourite airline program and that program isn't Aeroplan? Double Up Miles happens! This is IHG's promotion for members who prefer to credit stays to airline programs rather than IHG Rewards Club and the bonus kicks in right with the first stay. You can earn Double Miles on all IHG stays up to a maximum of 10,000 miles (or 1,250 miles in the case of Canada's Air Miles coalition program) from September 1 to December 31.


Offer details:
Double Airline Miles for stays at IHG Hotel stays Worldwide. Maximum of 10,000 bonus miles awarded during the promotional period. Full details, online registration and booking (Registration is required) Register by Dec 31 for stays Sep 1 - Dec 31, 15

Participating airlines:

Earn Quadruple Aeroplan Miles for IHG stays Worldwide - Sep 1 to Dec 31, 15

Yesterday we announced the new IHG systemwide promotion 'Accelerate' for IHG Rewards Club members that offers 50,000+ bonus points (or 2 free nights if you are new member) but what if you don't utilize IHG Rewards Club and may have just one or two stays coming up between September 1st and December 31st? Well you are likely better off crediting those stays to your favourite airline program that partners with IHG and for most of us here in Canada that's Aeroplan. So now those stays get even more rewarding as you'll 4x the miles if you choose to earn Aeroplan miles with your IHG Rewards Club account!

No matter what, register for it and do it right now because I can guarantee you won't remember in a few months and then when your employer plops you on one of these routes in November you'll miss out on those miles (sorry for rehashing the same wording from the last two CX posts!)

August 21 Update: Icelandair to launch Montreal service, Air France KLM seat sale, tons of great bonuses!

Final update for this week!

News, Tips & Tricks
Icelandair is adding service to Montreal starting in May 2016! This will be the airline's 5th Canadian destination with four flights per week out of YUL. Not only is Icelandair a great way to get to Iceland but in many cases they have the best fares to get to mainland Europe! Icelandair does have their own frequent flyer program called Saga Club but outside of travel (flights, hotels, car rental) the only way to earn Icelandair Saga Club points in Canada is via Diners Club Club Rewards MasterCard, Hilton HHonors or points.com transfers. (Source Airlineroute.net) Now they just need to launch Ottawa and Calgary service!

Between August 24th – 30th, donate your Aeroplan Miles to Schools Without Borders (SWB) and Aeroplan will match all miles up to 500,000 to help you make double the difference! Full details.

National Car Rental Rent Rent Reward Returns - Earn a free rental after two qualifying rentals

One of the best Car Rental Reward program promotions, National Emerald Club's One Two Free (US) / Rent Rent Reward (Canada) has returned. Once again there is a U.S. version and a Canadian version. The Canadian version is slightly better than the U.S. version on the rental portion as Canadians can credit Canadian and U.S. rentals towards the promo whereas their U.S. counterparts can only credit U.S. rentals (although both versions have a 300 point offer for Latin America/Caribbean and European rentals as well). You can also earn points for opting in for emails, using Emerald Reserve Service and/or booking your car via the mobile app.

Offer Details
Earn a Free Rental day when you earn 600 points or complete two qualifying rentals. A qualifying rental is the paid rental, via the Emerald Club®, of a Midsize or larger vehicle at participating National Car Rental® locations in Canada and the 50 United States, including the District of Columbia, for a period of two or more consecutive days during the promotion. Register Online (Registration is required) Valid for residents of Canada only Until Jan 31, 16

Additional Opportunities to Earn Points:
To be eligible for the email opt-in bonus of 50 points toward a Free Rental Day, you must electively opt in to receive emails from National®. Offer expires January 31, 2016, and is valid for new opt-ins only.
