Nearly a year ago JetBlue Airways announced they were launching
flights to Canada – more specifically Vancouver and that got me
wondering as to when the flights would be starting up!, JetBlue has
published those start dates and we’ll see Vancouver-New York JFK launch
in June 9 while Vancouver-Boston will launch on June 16. Both of these
routes are available for purchase on JetBlue’s site. The New York JFK
flight will be operated with an Airbus A320 while the Boston flight will
be an Airbus A220 – so unfortunately no Mint Products are available on
these flights. That’s too bad as the flights departing from Vancouver
are redeyes and it would be great to have those Mint seats as an option!

 Here are the flight schedules:

Vancouver – New York Dep 11:30pm Arr 7:48am

New York – Vancouver Dep 6:59pm Arr 10:26pm

Vancouver – Boston Dep 10:05pm Arr 6:19am

Boston – Vancouver Dep 5:45pm Arr 9:04pm

One more American Express Cobalt Card Multiplier
update for you. This one is Carmine’s Pizzeria in North Calgary – we
tried it out last week and not only the New York style pizza delicious,
the restaurant codes properly as a 5x multiplier on the Cobalt Card! I
have also removed Calgary’s Bownesian Grocer from the list as that
business is no longer around. Check out our American Express Cobalt™ Card Confirmed Multiplier Locations here.

World of Hyatt has introduced a new all-inclusive
award chart designed for their nine all-inclusive resort brands,
including Hyatt Ziva and Hyatt Zilara. The latter two have been part of
the program but this new chart has been made as Hyatt slowly brings more
than 100 locations on board from the AMR brand. Initially you can
redeem points at 6 of these AMR locations in the Cancun area with more
coming on board in May and months following that. Click here to learn more.

Here is the new all inclusive award chart for standard rooms:
