Emirates first class is a fantastic way to fly. Emirates offers incredible service and top-notch food and beverage options to first class passengers.
The best way to earn points & miles quickly is through credit card welcome offers. If you meet the minimum spend requirements and pay your bill in
“Don't save your money. Spend it as fast as you can.” Can you imagine anyone giving that advice? And, if they did, would you listen to them? No way.
In Tim's post “ Which hotel credit card is the most rewarding for spending? ” the World of Hyatt credit card didn't perform particularly well.
World of Hyatt is my favorite hotel loyalty program. Hyatt's program offers published award charts, great value for their points, multiple ways to achieve suite upgrades, best-in-class top-tier elite benefits, and many options for sharing perks and free nights with friends and family members. But it's not perfect. There are things I'd love to see changed. Here's my wishlist…
Hawaiian miles can be valuable in certain very specific situations. For example, miles can be used to upgrade Hawaiian Airlines flights between the U.S. mainland and Hawaii for 25,000 to 50,000 miles one-way. Or you can use as few as 65,000 miles to fly one-way business class between Hawaii and Japan, Korea, Australia, or New Zealand. Outside of a child-sized handful of sweet-spots, though, Hawaiian miles are not all that useful or valuable. That's why when we first saw that
For those with hotel points and free night certificates across multiple hotel programs, finding the best places to use your points and free nights can be a pain. It can be especially hard when your heart is set on a booking a popular hotel or resort which is rarely available for award stays. Luckily there […]
On last week's podcast , Nick and I discussed Alaska Airlines' pending Hawaiian Airlines purchase. Following the Department of Justice's lack of objection, the merger seems increasingly likely. Further, Alaska Airlines has stated that they will combine the two loyalty programs into one: Alaska Mileage Plan. Additionally, Alaska Airlines confirmed to Beat of Hawaii that miles will convert 1 to 1 from Hawaiian . Given that most of us find Alaska miles to be far more valuable than Hawaiian miles, this situation has raised some near term questions:
One of the cool things you can do with Choice Privileges points is to use them at select Preferred Hotels & Resorts . Not long ago, the top point price for these properties was 55,000 points per night. Then, this past June, they bumped the top end up to 87,000 points per night. Now, apparently enough time has lapsed to bump things up again. The new top rate is 118,000 points per night. Yeesh.
On paper, Marriott Bonvoy is an excellent loyalty program. It offers many ways to earn and redeem points, and its elite program offers upgrade certificates, free breakfast and more. But… it's no accident that “Bonvoy” has become a negative verb (as in “you've been Bonvoyed!”). We get nickel and dimed with ever-increasing resort fees; our free breakfasts often aren't free; those upgrades frequently fail; and our free night certificates often fall short.
