Big day today on Rewards Canada!
News, Tips & Tricks
Of course its a big day here on Rewards Canada as we released our 8th annual Canada’s Top Travel Rewards Credit Cards rankings! This
year we took an additional step in the rankings by adding a new
category, Overall Top Travel Rewards Card and that category was taken by
the American Express Gold Rewards Card. Yes we do believe this the best
overall card in Canada for travel rewards! Find all the rankings here!
Did you know that Rewards Canada was one of the very first websites in Canada to actually rank credit cards?
Almost as soon as they started they stopped. Roughly two weeks ago we
let you know about the new Ultra Low Cost airline here in Canada called newleaf.
The airline, as we mentioned, was actually planning to use Kelowna
based Flair Air to operate their flights for them. Well it looks like
that combination is coming under the scrutiny of the CTA as newleaf will
not be launching on February 12th as originally planned and will be
providing full refunds to anyone who has booked flights with them.
Newleaf does state they will be back but when we do not know. Thanks to
my wife for alerting me to this! Link to their notice
Not so good news for those of you in St. John’s who like to use your Aeroplan miles (or other Star Alliance airline miles) for United‘s flight to Newark as the route is being canceled at the start of February. (Source Airlineroute.net)
