December 11 Update: Best Western’s awesome redemption offer continues, get in on those holiday shopping bonuses & more!

The Best Western Rewards offer of being able to
redeem 10,000 points for stays at any Best Western hotel in North
America is actually still available for booking. We were wrong when we
posted towards the end of November that it was also ending for bookings
on November 30th. At that time the T&Cs seemed to indicate it would
end on November 30 but that was strictly for the double points portion
of the promotion. So the good news is that you haven’t missed out! You
can still redeem only 10,000 points for hotels that may go for as much
as 24,000 points per night! Learn more about the promotion here or see
our past posts on it:

Air Canada became the second airline in Canada to fly the new Boeing
737 MAX aircraft commercially today. The airline inaugurated revenue
service with a flight between Toronto and Calgary. Air Canada has firm
orders for 61 of the new planes with 18 of them due to enter the fleet
during 2018. (Source Air Canada)

We’re going to keep this reminder going in each update until Christmas:

Check out the Give A Mile Flight Hero campaign! The
charity can really use donations of miles to help provide flights to
those who otherwise would be unable to travel to visit terminally ill or
critically sick family and friends. Rewards Canada has pledged to raise
100,000 miles and we are half way there! We are putting the call out to
all of our fans, readers and even new visitors, if you can give please
do so. It can be as little as 1,000 miles! You can find out more and donate here.
