RWRDS Daily Update – January 11

Here’s your Rewards Canada update! Your near daily dose of loyalty program, credit card and travel news, bonuses, deals and more.

You can now convert Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer Miles to Marriott Bonvoy points

Following in the footsteps of Korean Air SKYPASS, Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer now allows transfers of their miles to Marriott Bonvoy. As with most airline to hotel conversion options the conversion rate is not great. The miles covert at a ratio of 2 KrisFlyer Miles to 1 Marriott Bonvoy point with a minimum transfer requirement of 3,000 miles. That being said, the option is nice to have if you happen to earn a few KrisFlyer miles here and there and know you would never earn enough for a flight. Or if you happen to have some KrisFlyer miles due to expire you can convert them to Marriott. Click here to learn more
