Good morning everyone, happy TGI Friday. I just wanted to remind everyone that I have a travel hacker meetup tomorrow afternoon at the In-N-Out in Mountain View.
If you already RSVP’d to the previous post, no need to RSVP on this post. If you have any questions, please leave a comment below. Have a great weekend everyone!
Good evening everyone. I received a targeted offer from Virgin America in the form of a postcard that offers me 5,000 Virgin America Elevate miles for creating a new Virgin America account. This is strange because I already have a Virgin America account, I status matched to Virgin America Elevate Gold elite status, and I was recently approved for the Comenity Virgin America Premium Visa Signature Credit Card. Apparently, Virgin America still does not think I have a Virgin America account. The small print on the front of the postcard says that this offer is only available for those living at the address printed on the postcard, but you are welcome to create a new Virgin America account and see if you get the 5,000 bonus Virgin America Elevate miles.
Good morning everyone. I am sure by this point everyone and their mother has at least one Visa Infinite credit card, right? If you do and you happen to find yourself traveling through Montreal, Vancouver, or Ottawa airport, remember to check out the “Dedicated VIP security fast track lane.” My friend was flying back from Vancouver, Canada, last weekend and he saw a special security line for Visa Infinite cardmembers. He pulled out his new Chase Sapphire Reserve Credit Card and breezed through security. He said the line was much faster and easier than TSA PreCheck in the United States.
I couldn’t find much information about this benefit, but I stumbled onto visainfinite.ca (Canadian site – no corresponding US site) that is exclusively for “Visa Infinite Privilege cardholders.” Truth be told, I’m not sure if “Visa Infinite Privilege” is the same thing as “Visa Infinite” or if it is a higher, *more privileged* level. Does anyone know?
Good evening everyone! In tonight’s post, I am going to show you how to stack these 2 AMEX Offers:
Hopefully you can add both AMEX Offers to the same AMEX card (preferably the AMEX Hilton HHonors Surpass Credit Card). In my case, I added both AMEX Offers to my AMEX Platinum Charge Card.
Good morning everyone, I hope you had a great weekend. I played tourist in San Francisco and rode a bright yellow GoCar around the city, down Lombard Street and up to Coit Tower, then I had a delicious dinner at Boudin’s at Fisherman’s Wharf. Anyway, I have an important post for anyone with the Comenity Virgin America Premium Visa Signature Credit Card. I was recently approved for this credit card during my June 2016 App-O-Rama. As a cardmember perk, you get a companion code discount worth up to $150 off a Virgin America flight every year you pay the $149 annual fee (Virgin America’s version of the Alaska Airlines companion pass).
The terms and conditions of the discount companion code say that the code will be emailed 6-8 weeks after you paid the annual fee. I paid the annual fee longer than that, but I did not receive the email from Virgin America (it could have been mistakenly deleted, went to spam, or just never sent – I don’t know what is more likely). In this post, I will show you how to request the missing or lost Virgin America discount companion code.
