World of Hyatt Bonus Journeys: Earn 2,022 bonus points for every 2 nights (Jan 15 - Apr 20, 22)

Hyatt's next systemwide Bonus Journeys promotion is here and celebrates 2022 by awarding 2,022 bonus points for every two qualifying nights that World of Hyatt members complete. The great news is that the nights do not have to be consecutive so if you are someone who makes a lot of one night stays you don't have to worry as you'll earn the bonus after your second one night stay and so. Members can earn the bonus for up 20 nights or a maximum of 20,220 bonus points. Registration and booking is now open for stays made between January 15 and April 20, 2022. You do have to register by March 15, 2022. There is also an additional bonus for World of Hyatt credit cardmembers if you happen to have one of those U.S. cards. (see below).

OFFER EXTENDED 450 WestJet dollars + $0 companion fare when you get the WestJet RBC World Elite Mastercard

WestJet and RBC have extended the combined offer of 450 WestJet dollars  + $0 companion fare on the WestJet RBC World Elite Mastercard. The 450 bonus WestJet dollars are awarded when you spend $5,000 in the first three months and is available on new applications made until January 5, 2022. The $0 companion fare voucher is currently available for applications made until March 7, 2022, it is this latter voucher offer where the extension takes place and confirms our anticipation of them extending it if TD and Aeroplan extended their Buddy Pass offers which they did.

Top 5 Credit Card Sign Up offers for December - These cards provide the most value out of their welcome bonuses

Here are the Rewards Canada Top 5 Travel Credit Card Sign Up offers for the month of December 2021! This is not a 'best' credit card list like our Top Travel Rewards Credit Card rankings but instead a look at cards that have very good acquisition (welcome/sign up) offers. As always when choosing a card you should always take other factors into account other than the just sign up bonus, but when some of these cards are first year free, they can and do pay off even when you grab them strictly for the sign up rewards. This month we see two first year free cards on the list.

Receive four months of Apple Music for free with any Canadian World or World Elite Mastercard

Back in April 2020 Mastercard Canada launched new benefits that became available on all Canadian World and World Elite Mastercard. Those new benefits were free global WiFi from Boingo, a short lived stint with Foodora (not Mastercard's fault), a credit with Ritual and Mastercard Travel Rewards. After launching those new benefits and the loss of Foodora the promise of more exclusive offers for World and World Elite cardholders went dormant. For well over a year no new exclusive offers or benefits were added, that is until now. Actually, since about mid-October or so but I hadn't checked the offer page since the summer and now there is one new benefit afforded to eligible cardholders.

Earn 2x points on all Best Western stays in Canada, the U.S. and Caribbean until February 6

 
Best Western’s next North America wide promotion starts today and it’s one that we like more than their typical gift card offers. The reason why is that their gift card from promotions have a small window to be used and this offer, which is double points on all stays doesn’t bind you to a small redemption window. Best Western doesn’t expire points so by earning double points you can use them when you like without the push to use them or lose them like the certificates.
