Here is the start of the week news and bonuses for you!
News, Tips & Tricks
IHG Rewards Club’s PR team let it’s slate of website
and bloggers on their mailing list know last night that the next set of
IHG PointBreaks will be released on Tuesday Feb 24. From the preview
list of 7 hotels, we know at least one Canadian property is
participating, the Staybridge Suites West Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
Keep an eye out right here on Rewards Canada for the entire list of
hotels on 24th!
Choice Hotels has launched their latest systemwide
promotion and it is the same one we see over and over again! The offer
awards bonus points so that you reach the 8,000 Point level so that you
can redeem at over 1,500 of their locations Worldwide, lots of which are
here on our home turf. I know there are a lot of our readers who
frequent Choice properties here in Canada so I thought it best to
highlight it up here in the news and tips. Find out more here!
I had the luxury of speaking with WestJet about the targeted offer that select WestJet Rewards Gold members have been receiving and wanted to clarify who got it and how they got it.
- Members were strictly targeted based on the Status Match promotion only.
- It was not based on having any flight
history with WestJet. - Members who earned status the hard way with WestJet weren’t targeted.
- If you did do status match and didn’t receive the offer there is a good chance you didn’t opt in for communications from WestJet Rewards when you joined the program so you
wouldn’t have been on the list. - There isn’t anyway you can get the
offer after the fact if you opt-in now. So if you didn’t get this offer sent to you make
sure opt-in for future opportunities and this applies for all reward programs not just WestJet.
