Alaska Airlines / Atmos Rewards Summit Cardholders: How to Share Points with up to 10 Accounts for Free

Posted on by . 2 Replies

Good afternoon everyone! I hope you had an enjoyable Indigenous Peoples’ Day or a festive Canadian Thanksgiving (both celebrated on October 13 this year).  Speaking of giving thanks, I want to thank the Atmos Rewards team for adding one of my favorite perks (free point sharing) to the Bank of America Atmos Rewards Summit Credit Card. This was one of the best features on the Barclays Hawaiian Airlines Credit Card, and I’m thrilled to see it available on the new Summit credit card.

Laura generously offered to share her Atmos Rewards points with me, so I’ll walk you through the step-by-step process of sharing points with another account.

Maybe the Barclays Hawaiian Airlines Credit Card is a Keeper – Here’s Why

Posted on by . Leave a reply

Good afternoon everyone, happy Friday!  Remember when I wrote Should I Keep or Cancel the Barclays Hawaiian Airlines Credit Card? about three weeks ago? In that post, I mentioned:

“Laura’s Barclays Hawaiian Airlines Credit Card statement just closed and the $99 annual fee posted. As of today, we are 99% sure she will close this card, but I wanted to get a second opinion from readers to make sure we’re not missing an obvious reason to keep the card open for another year.”

Well… a lot can change in three weeks! There have been a few positive developments that turned our decision from a 99% closure into a 100% keeper.

1. The $99 Retention Offer That Changed Everything

When Laura called Barclays to close her credit card, she mentioned that we’d just had a baby and didn’t have any Hawaii trips planned. The rep was incredibly kind (congratulated her on the new baby!) and then offered to waive the $99 annual fee for this year.

The next business day, the $99 credit was backdated to offset the posted annual fee, making the card free for another year. We were both surprised (and grateful) for the generous gesture.  Well done, Barclays!

Should I Keep or Cancel the Barclays Hawaiian Airlines Credit Card?

Posted on by . 4 Replies

Good afternoon everyone, I hope your week is going well. Laura’s Barclays Hawaiian Airlines Credit Card statement just closed and the $99 annual fee posted. As of today, we are 99% sure she will close this card, but I wanted to get a second opinion from readers to make sure we’re not missing an obvious reason to keep the card open for another year. Since her statement just closed a few days ago, we have about 4 weeks to make the final decision.

Check Barclays Account for 2,500 Hawaiian Airlines Miles Offer (Targeted)

Posted on by . Leave a reply

Good afternoon everyone, I hope you had a great weekend.  If you have a Barclays Hawaiian Airlines Credit Card, you might want to log into your Barclays account to see if you are targeted for a great offer: earn 2,500 bonus Hawaiian Airlines Miles after you make 5 purchases of $50 or more.  The offer ends July 31, 2025, and you must enroll in the offer by July 31, 2025.   This is a great offer since you can move the Hawaiian Airlines miles over to your Alaska Airlines account (How to Transfer, Combine, or Move Alaska Airlines and Hawaiian Airlines Miles (with Direct Links)).

Laura was targeted for this offer – she opened this credit card in August 2024 and has not put any spend on the credit card since getting the sign up bonus in October 2025.  Unfortunately, I was not targeted for this offer – I opened my credit card in March 2025 and haven’t put any spend on the credit card since getting the sign up bonus in April 2025.  Therefore, this offer may be targeted to members who have not used their credit card in the last several months.

Here is how you can see if you are targeted for this offer.  These screenshots are from the Barclays app, but the process should be similar if you are starting from your Barclays online account.  Sign into your Barclays app / account, then click on the Offers icon, then select your Hawaiian Airlines account.

Should I Transfer All My AMEX Points to Hawaiian Airlines?

Posted on by . 22 Replies

Good afternoon everyone, I hope you had a great weekend.  I am excited to share that Laura and I are having a baby girl in August.  With our upcoming Player 3 little bundle of joy, our travel plans will be on pause for a while, but I wanted to build up a big Alaska Airlines mileage balance so that when we take to the skies once more, we will have plenty of miles available.

As of May 2025, I have 1.3 million Alaska Airlines miles in my account.  We built up this balance in the last year by transferring lots of AMEX Membership Rewards Points to our Hawaiian Airlines accounts, applying for Barclays Hawaiian Airlines credit cards, and then by consolidating all our miles into my Alaska Airlines account.  For a step by step guide on how to do that, please read How to Transfer, Combine, or Move Alaska Airlines and Hawaiian Airlines Miles (with Direct Links).

With all that said… Should I transfer all my AMEX Membership Rewards Points to Hawaiian Airlines?  After reading this post, please let me know your thoughts.
