Hilton and Marriott Hotel Promos: Take Advantage of These Two!

Posted on by . Leave a reply

Hotel points are ours for the taking if we qualify for offers or spend a few minutes of our time gathering them up. And it’s best to have hotel points across a few different programs, too. Make sure you take a look at these two promotions. Here’s an offer for some Hilton Honors points in exchange for credit card spend. Ian at PWAC explains it here. Marriott’s latest “game” can be worth it, so check this promotion out as well. It’s detailed here at PMTTP. Have a great Sunday, everyone!

Buy Miles/Points Promos Ending Soon: Alaska Airlines 40% Bonus, IHG 100% Bonus, American Airlines 42.5K Bonus & Choice Hotels 40% Bonus

Updated 1:40pm PT on 10/29: Alaska Airlines has extended their buy mils promo through October 30.

Good afternoon everyone.  I was working on my Buy Miles & Points Page and found a few offers that are ending in the next 7 days.  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 the 4 promos that are ending in the next 7 days. First up, Alaska Airlines is offering a 40% bonus when you purchase 20,000+ Alaska Airlines miles.  This offer expires on October 28.  Offer extended through October 30.

Do you Want to View Passwords in the AwardWallet App?

Posted on by . 8 Replies

Good morning everyone.  During the Chicago Seminars, Dia @ The Deal Mommy mentioned wanting the ability to view passwords in the AwardWallet app.  I thought about it for a minute and totally agree with her.  If you can view passwords on the desktop version of AwardWallet, you should have the same ability on the AwardWallet app.  At the end of this post, I have a reader poll – please vote and let me know if you would use this new feature. 

Here is what the current version of the AwardWallet app looks like.  You can sign in using Face ID (iPhone X or XS) or a PIN, so the app is pretty secure.  I then went to my KLM account (since I had a 0 mile balance) to see if I could view my password.  I clicked the Edit button, since that seemed like the most logical place to view the password (and that is how the desktop version of AwardWallet works).

When Will the 6,000 Wyndham Rewards Anniversary Points Post to My Account?

Posted on by . 10 Replies

Good morning everyone.  I had a great time at the Chicago Seminars travel conference and enjoyed meeting several TWG readers over the weekend.  It is always great to put names to faces.  In credit card news, my $75 annual fee posted to my Barclays Wyndham Rewards Credit Card on August 31.  One of the main reasons (or only reasons) to keep the credit card is the 6,000 anniversary points.  I was anxious for the 6,000 anniversary points to post to my Wyndham Rewards account, but the points posted slower than I expected.

Hyatt Hotel Promos: Take Advantage of These Two

World of Hyatt is offering 1,000 bonus American Airlines miles

If you’ve got Hyatt Place and Hyatt House stays coming up, this promo is for you. Heck, this promo runs through the end of January and you never know, so might as well register for it now just in case. I haven’t had a Hyatt Place stay in a while since I had that strange episode of lobby music.

World of Hyatt is offering 1,000 bonus American Airlines miles on every stay at either of these brands. Even award stays count towards the bonus. That always sweetens the deal on these promotions. Registration is required, so here’s the link.
