February 29 Udpate: WestJet 20th Anniversary offers, Delta Airlines becomes an AIR MILES partner, Starwood Leap Day Sale

Last update of the month but first of the week!

News, Tips & Tricks

WestJet turns 20 years old today, or are they really only 5
years old since they celebrate on the leap day every four years? Either
way congratulations to WestJet! To celebrate their 20th they have two
offers, a seat sale and a WestJet Rewards bonus. Check out both below!

While being added to AIR MILES a few years ago as an airline where you could redeem ‘more’ miles for flights, Delta Airlines has
now become a full fledged partner airline of AIR MILES. What does this
mean? This means Delta flights will now be priced at the award chart
prices (low and high season) that many of you are used to for Air
Canada, WestJet, American Airlines etc. I’m not exactly sure when this
commenced so it could be old news but I just noticed it when I logged
into the travel rewards section of the AIR MILES website.

We were going to have a separate post today for the latest Air France KLM Flying Blue
promo awards as Edmonton is included again, however the new offers were
only up for a few hours only to be pulled by AF KLM. Maybe they are
adding more offers or waiting until it is actually March 1st to release
them. Stay tuned for an update tomorrow.
