Random News: New Travel with Grant Logo, 10% Rebate for IHG Rewards Club Credit Card Holders, and Free Cash Back Buying Groceries for 4th of July

Happy 4th of July!  Here is a quick sample of random news from my mind. One of my blog readers, Nick, redesigned my blog logo, what do you guys think?

After a recent Award Wallet account update, I noticed that my IHG rewards balance increased.  After investigating, it looks like I received 3,500 bonus IHG points, thanks to the 10% rebate on reward night points.

Quick Updates Regarding the New Chase IHG MasterCard and Visa Savings Edge Program

This is a follow up post to an earlier post (Friday Rundown: Free Lounge Access for Chase Ink Bold/Plus, New IHG MasterCard…).  In that post, I said that I had received a letter from Chase regarding my Chase IHG Visa Credit Card.  My card would soon be converted to a Chase IHG MasterCard Credit Card.

The letter stated that I would received my new MasterCard credit card by May 17, but my card would be automatically changed at/on April 1.  Apparently my calendars are a few days late or Chase is a few days early, because it looks like they have already made the change to my current IHG credit card.  I assume I will receive a new credit card in the mail any day now.   Continue reading

Planning your Cabo San Lucas Trip (from Orange County)

Planning your Cabo San Lucas Trip (from Orange County)

If you haven’t already, please read New Southwest Airlines Routes (Orange County to Cabo).

Anyways, since flights are relatively cheap from Orange County (SNA), I convinced my brother to go with me for a short weekend getaway.  Since Southwest points will be devalued started April 1, I strongly recommend burning your stockpile before then.  Southwest has free change and cancellation fees, so there is no excusing to hold onto your Southwest points now.  With that said, flights from SNA to Cabo San Lucas (SJD) are only 11,400 points round trip plus $85 in taxes/fees starting August 10.

For those without massive stockpiles of Southwest points, round trip flights can be had for $315.  Much cheaper than $400+ flights on US Airways connecting in Phoenix.  Continue reading
