Good afternoon everyone, happy Friday! I was working on my Buy Miles & Points Page and found 5 offers that are ending this month. Always check the math to make sure that buying miles & points makes sense for you. Do not buy miles & points speculatively unless you have a use in mind. With that said, here are 5 offers that end soon. Up first, Avianca Airlines is offering up to a 135% bonus, depending on the number of Avianca Airlines LifeMiles you purchase. This offer expires today – August 27.

Good morning everyone, I hope you all had a great weekend. Long story short, I planned an awesome award trip to Africa (Victoria Falls, South Africa, and Madagascar) for August 2020, but due to the Coronavirus Pandemic, we decided to cancel the trip and try again next year. I planned / booked this trip in October 2019 and part of the award booking process involved booking an Avianca LifeMiles award ticket to fly in business class on Ethiopian Airlines from Toronto, Canada (YYZ) through Addis Ababa, Ethiopia (ADD) to Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe (VFA). In this post, I will document the timeline of cancelling my award ticket, when my Avianca LifeMiles were redeposited and when my taxes/fees were refunded. Similarly, you can read about my experience with Air Canada is my post Anatomy & Timeline of 2 Cancelled Air Canada Aeroplan Award Tickets.

I planned / booked this award trip in October 2019 and part of the award booking process involved transferring 77,000 American Express Membership Rewards Points to my Air Canada Aeroplan account. I recently wrote about my Anatomy and Timeline of a Cancelled American Airlines Award Ticket, so I decided I would write something similar for my experience cancelling 2 Air Canada Aeroplan award tickets.
Good afternoon everyone, happy Friday. I started sharing my thoughts regarding working from home in a series of Work from Home Diary posts. Feel free to share your work from home feelings in the comments section below. For today’s update, I wanted to discuss upcoming travel plans and my plans for those trips. As of today, I have 4 trips on the books. These trips are not set in stone and could be cancelled by myself or the airlines before departure depending upon how things are going in the world. We are taking things slowly and focusing on 1 day at a time.
My next trip is in mid-May for Mother’s Day Weekend. I was planning on flying down from San Francisco (SFO) to Orange County (SNA) to visit my parents and grandparents. I have flown down for Mother’s Day weekend for the last few years and enjoy seeing my family. This trip was booked with Citi Thank You Points for basic economy travel on Alaska Airlines. If the situation in California remains the same (all Californias are told to stay home to prevent the spread of coronavirus), I will probably cancel my trip and hold onto travel funds for a future trip.
