Good afternoon everyone, happy Thursday! I was working on my Buy Miles & Points Page and found 5 offers that end in the next week. 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, Virgin Atlantic is offering up to a 70% bonus, depending on the number of Virgin Atlantic Points you purchase. This offer expires tomorrow – March 31.
Good morning everyone, I hope you had a great weekend. Back in December 2022, Laura and I were both impacted by the Southwest Airlines travel disruption. I filled out the online form, provided our alternative travel receipts (we ended up flying Alaska Airlines instead of Southwest Airlines), and then received this Southwest Airlines confirmation email with our case number. That was back on December 30, 2022, and I expected to hear back from Southwest Airlines sometime in January.
On January 4, we did receive 2 emails regarding Southwest Airlines Gesture of Goodwill 25,000 Point Award Codes (which I wrote about here), but we didn’t hear anything about our case number through the end of February. Since the email below does not have an email address that you can respond to, I submitted another request with Southwest Airlines and asked for a status update on our case.
Good afternoon everyone. Yesterday, Frequent Miler reported Southwest compensating passengers with 25K points each as a goodwill gesture (check your email!). Since I read that post, I eagerly awaited my email since Laura and I were both affected by Southwest Airlines when we tried to fly home on December 26. This morning, at 10am PT, I received the Southwest Airlines email that contained 2 sets of award codes for 25,000 Southwest Airlines Rapid Rewards Points each. This is a very nice goodwill gesture by Southwest Airlines and I really appreciate it. In this post, I will show you how to redeem the award codes to get the points deposited into your account. Lastly, if you would rather redeem your points for gift cards, I will show you how to do that too.
Good afternoon, from rainy Northern California. Every year, I like to check out my stats from Google Analytics to see which blog posts were the most popular. I created 2 lists by looking at all blog posts written in 2022 and then I looked at which posts were read the most in 2022, but written in previous years (#stayingpower). I will list the blog posts from top to bottom based on pageviews, share the original published date, and provide my thoughts or a short summary of each blog post. If you are curious, here were the most popular posts from 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2021.
Good morning everyone, I hope you had a great New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day! One of my yearly traditions is to write my predictions for the coming year and you can check out how I did in 2022 here: Let’s Review my 2022 Airline, Hotel & Credit Card Predictions. I plan on doing a mid-year review in July to see if I am on track, but without further ado, here are my predictions for 2023…
