Attention loyalty program managers! Need help to
develop promotional concepts? We have spent over 15 years researching,
tracking, and aggregating loyalty promotions. We’ve seen the ones that
work and the ones that don’t. Today WestJet released a cross Canada
promotion that we helped develop. This is the second promotion from our
consulting ranks to go live! Feel free to contact us for more details on
how the FFB Group can help you develop new and exciting loyalty promotions!

If you are flying through Seattle, Portland or Los Angeles and were planning on using Alaska Airlines lounges with Priority Pass beware that they are limiting entry to cardholders only and not allowing guests. (Source One Mile at a Time)

most proprietary credit card programs to redeem for flights on them! (Source Wasaya)
