Cathay Pacific loyalists can use miles for any available seat on any Cathay Pacific or partner flight via a Miles Plus Cash booking. Does this spell trouble for Cathay’s beloved loyalty program?

For non-business travelers, airline elite status presents a conundrum. It’s desirable to improve your travel, but airlines only tend to bestow it to those who fly (and suffer) a ton without it. But what if you could shortcut your way to elite status without paying your dues first? In this post, we’ll show you how.

American Express is currently offering a transfer bonus to Asia Miles (Cathay Pacific’s loyalty program). Often overlooked, Asia Miles can provide fantastic value, particularly on select Oneworld partner redemptions. Great sweet spots opened up by this transfer bonus include 59k-point Cathay Pacific business class flights to Asia or 70k-point Qatar and Japan Airlines business class as far as you can fly.

American Express just launched a unique new Amex Offer to incentivize cardmembers to “shop small”.

Iberia just launched its newest mileage sale, offering a 50% bonus on Avios purchases through November 12, 2021. If maximized, Iberia members can grab Avios for as little as 1.39¢ a piece.

Restaurant and delivery spending is a large portion of many American’s budgets. In fact, over 37% of all spending on food in the U.S. is spent dining out.

Sonesta is a rising star among U.S. hotel brands. Over the last few months, it’s more than tripled the number of properties it has in the U.S. thanks to rebranding over 200 former IHG and Marriott properties. Here’s a briefer on the Sonesta Travel Pass program.

The World of Hyatt program is an incredible example of hotel loyalty done right. Hyatt charges far fewer points for a free night than the competition—including to book the best rooms at top-tier properties. My favorite Hyatt redemptions are for ‘Premium Suites’, which members can book for double the standard award rate. Here are our picks for the best Hyatt Suites across the globe.
