TAP Air Portugal has launched a great Valentine's Day sale for travel for their flights out of Toronto. It is available in both Economy and Executive (Business) Class but I'll focus on the latter in this post as that really seems like the good deal! With this sale you can fly round trip business class from Toronto to Portugal from $1,999 all in or travel beyond to other European destinations for $2,499. On top of this, for the Executive/Business Class fares they are offering double status miles in TAP's Miles&Go program. This means you would earn 10,746 status miles each way if you fly Toronto to Lisbon.

We see the return of an IHG Rewards' buy points bonus offer for the next month and a bit and this time it is a mystery bonus. Some members will receive a 100% bonus offer while others will get a different offer, like the 80% we received here at Rewards Canada. The bonus is offered when you purchase 5,000 or more points at a time and for this promotion they have not raised the annual limit of points that you can buy.

Star Alliance airline SAS (Scandinavian Airlines System) and partner of Air Canada announced today the launch of flights from Toronto. Starting this June the airline will fly 3x per week from Toronto to Copenhagen and 4x per week from Toronto to Stockholm. The airline will use their Airbus A321LR aircraft on the route which feature 22 lay flat business class seats, 12 premium economy seats and 123 economy class seats. These new routes are great news for Aeroplan members as SAS is part of the Star Alliance which means you will be able to earn and more importantly redeem points for award flights on these routes.

Here are the Rewards Canada Top 5 Small Business Credit Card Sign Up offers for this month! This is not a 'best' credit card list like our Top Travel Rewards Credit Card rankings but instead a look at cards for small businesses 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 three first year free cards on the list! And remember this list is based on minimum value towards travel which we calculate as the minimum value of the welcome bonus less the annual fee. It is entirely possible to receive more value out of the welcome bonuses on all of these cards since they earn Aeroplan points or Marriott Bonvoy points - both of which can provide some huge outsized value rewards!
