May 14 Update: Receive 50% more value on hotel vouchers for future travel to Australia/New Zealand, don’t use PayPal for Aeroplan’s eStore co-brand card promotion & more!

Think you might travel to Australia or New Zealand by 2022? There is a pretty amazing offer from Swiss Belhotel.
For a limited time you can get 50% more value by buying vouchers for
future stays at their New Zealand and Australia Hotels. That’s right –
50% more. Buy a $1,000 voucher and you’ll get $1,500 in value to use
towards the room and most incidental costs. The vouchers are valid
until September 1, 2022 and come in $100, $200, $500 and $1000
denominations before the bonus.  Find out more here
To ensure the most savings use a No Foreign Transaction fee credit card for the purchase!

Redeemable at Swiss-Belsuites Victoria Park Auckland, Zest OK Auckland,
Swiss-Belsuites Pounamu Queenstown, Swiss-Belresort Coronet Peak, The
York Sydney, Swiss-Belhotel Brisbane. Voucher can be used for any
payment (rooms, food, drinks, incidentals)

One of our readers, Phil M, asked if the current promotion to earn 5x Aeroplan Miles
on Aeroplan eStore purchases with an Aeroplan co-branded card requires
the purchase to be made directly with the card or if a card connected to
PayPal will work. We reached out to Aeroplan and they told us it will
not work. You have to make the purchase with your card directly at the
retailer to earn the bonus..

June and Brewster’s wanted $339 for the same room and the cheapest 3rd
