Rewards Canada was off last week for some R&R
but of course that was interrupted with the Air Canada news that they
along with TD, CIBC and Visa want to buy Aeroplan from Aimia so we did a
lot of interviews about it from Southern California! We’ll have full
coverage of that news tomorrow and we’ll also play catch up on other
news from mbna (not good news), Aeroplan (the transfer bonus is back),
WestJet and more.
Last week the newest IHG Rewards Club PointBreaks
were released, we prescheduled our post as we were travelling when it
went live so we couldn’t cover what Canadian hotels were on the list and
really not much was missed. Only three Canadian hotels were included
this time at the 10,000 point level. The Holiday Inn Calgary-Airport,
Holiday Inn Express & Suites Terrace and Staybridge Suites London
are the hotels being offered at a discounted rate. You can find all the details here.
Jsut a heads up – some BMO credit cards will have
some slight changes coming to them on August 8th. Keep an eye out on our
blog for that news in a little over a week!
