Playing catch up here as we missed the daily update yesterday!
News, Tips & Tricks
Hyatt Gold Passport has announced their hotel award
night category changes for 2015. Most of it is good news! Of the 70
hotels changing in category, only 22 are increasing while 48 are going
down. So what do you do? Try to book those that are going up now while
waiting to book hotels that are going down to after January 22nd if you
can! Here in Canada, two properties are changing. The Hyatt Regency
Toronto is going from Category 2 to Category 3 while the Hyatt Regency
Montreal is moving down to 2 from 3. Find all the details here.
Preferred Hotel Group is offering their iPrefer members Double Points on all bookings made by December 11th for stays until March 31st. Find out more here.
A couple of days ago we mentioned that Airlineroute.net had announced that Air Canada
was changing their Vancouver-New York flight from Newark to JFK but
that looks like it was either a mistake or they changed their mind. The
Vancouver-Newark route will remain in 2015. (Source Airlineroute.net)
