March 2 Update: Petro-Points to drop Asia Miles conversion option, Hyatt introduces The Unbound Collection, KLM to Geneva for $799

We can take a bit of a breather today compared to yesterday!

News, Tips & Tricks

Rewards Canada reader David alerted us to this disappointing change in the Petro-Points program.
As of April 1st you’ll no longer be able to redeem Petro-Points for
Cathay Pacific Asia Miles! This comes just as we were working on an
Ultimate Asia Miles Credit Card portfolio as the CIBC Petro-Points card
is a decent Asia Miles earner. We haven’t talked very much about this
partnership on the site (we do list it on our Airlines you can earn miles with Canadian Credit Cards chart)
but we are sad to see this option go. Also leaving the program on that
day are the Canadian Cancer Society donations and Digital Media Rewards.

Hyatt announced the launch of new brand of hotels for their portfolio. The Unbound Collection by Hyatt will be a group of independently owned hotels that will benefit from Hyatt brand management and the Gold Passport program while providing Hyatt a chance to grow their presence without building, owning and operating additional hotels. Here is an excerpt from the press release:

…a global collection of unique and independent stay experiences. The
Unbound Collection by Hyatt will include a portfolio of new and existing
upper-upscale and luxury properties that will maintain a distinct
character while providing guests and owners Hyatt’s award-winning
customer loyalty program, robust operational and marketing resources and
trusted, quality brand.

The first Unbound Hotels will be  The Driskill Hotel in Austin, Texas; the Hôtel du Louvre in Paris,
France; the Carmelo Resort & Spa in Carmelo, Uruguay; and the Coco
Palms Resort in Kauai, Hawaii, which is expected to undergo a
revitalization and re-open in spring 2018. Find out more here
