The new 50,000 bonus mile offer after initial purchase on the card in 3 months is a great offer. I hadn’t seen this offer yet, so when I opened the mail and saw 50,000 bonus mile on the cover of the envelope, I figured there was just some bonus for a transfer of balance or something. US Airways 50,000 Mile…
Update: offer has ended. Earlier this year the Weekly Flyer’s got in on a few of the 100,000 offers from American Airlines for the Citi Executive AAdvantage Card from Citi. The card came with 100,000 bonus points after spending, a ton of benefits and it came in a pretty nice package. Sadly that offer appeared to stop working.…
I’ve been on a tear lately with really really large credit card signup bonus offers. So when this one hit my inbox, I was surprised at how small it is, in fact, I’m not sure I’ve seen one any smaller. When there’s 100,000 American Airline bonus offers, 150,000 Amex Business Platinum and 100,000 Amex Business…
Yesterday I tweeted this picture of the latest 100,000 credit card offer. It didn’t look like the others I’ve received in the past, so I was excited to open it up and take a look inside. Any 100,000 point bonus offer is a good one, but I had my hopes high for something unique about this…
A few weeks ago I stumbled on a bunch of Vanilla Reloads at a gas station then just like Delta and United enhancements in 2014 I started seeing Vanilla Reloads everywhere, eventually finding them at these four stores and then more. They were humming along until today when I visited a friendly neighborhood gas station…
Something that I’ve always done is take time to relax between connections. Whether it is checking out some truly great airport restaurants, lounging in a Club, having a drink to relax, or just grabbing a cookie, I try to find something that makes being at the airport enjoyable. A fellow BoardingArea blogger, Rene at DeltaPoints,…
Update: Some of these offers have expired. Last month we shared our top ten list of most best credit card offers. In this post we’ll share the current lineup of some of the best limited time credit card offers. These are offers that have either huge signup bonuses for a limited time or either temporarily…
If you’re looking for an easy way to rack some bonus miles with a sign-up bonus besides with Chase and Amex, consider looking at Barclays. Two of their cards are The Hawaiian Airlines® World Elite MasterCard® and the The Hawaiian Airlines® Business MasterCard®. Each one is offering a 35,000 mileage bonus If you were to pick up both…
Here’s a really useful American Express sync offer that can save you $50 off your next stay at a Hilton Hotel. From now through September 2, 2014, members can save $50 off their bill when they spend a total of $250 on everything during their stay, from room service to room rate. As long as…
The targeted offer for 150,000 points here was an amazing offer. After some ups and downs with meeting the minimum spending, I was finally able to hit the $10,000 spending requirement. As soon as I did the 100,000 points were deposited into my account. Got to say I really like seeing a six figure sum…
Yesterday I shared hints to help you find two gas stations that I found sell Vanilla Reloads with credit cards so you can reload your pre-paid cards to make everyday purchases. Well, we’ve done it again. We’ve found yet another, unpublished gas station that sells VRs to patrons and accepts credit card as payment. Vanilla…
Once CVS went cash tender only, I realized there was still another work around to use Vanilla Reload cards to load my Bluebird, but it required an extra step that I explained in this previous post. But I knew from a previous road trip down south from my home town that I could pick up…
I haven’t done one of these in a while and there are many new big credit card bonus offers to explore. A quick note for those not familiar with how credit card signup bonus offers can help with travel. Back in 2011, credit cards helped us earn a little over 857,000 points and miles. We used…
In a previous post, I shared the new benefits of the US Airways® Premier World MasterCard® starting back on April 30th, 2014. But there are more benefits like the new spring promotion bonus where you can earn up to 2,500 bonus miles on certain categories of spending for a total of 2x points per dollar. Key…
Starting April 30th, 2014, the US Airways® Premier World MasterCard® comes with a new benefit that can really add up. The fact that it offers 40,000 bonus miles after your first purchase, and the card will likely go away once the integration with American Airlines is complete, makes this a really attractive card at the moment.…
Korean Air has some great award redemptions in their award chart. So when opportunities come up to earn bonus Korean Air SKYPASS miles, I give it a little attention, especially after experiencing their 777 Business Class. With the latest offer, they’ve increased the bonus on the Korean Air SKYPASS Visa Signature Card to 30,000 bonus…
Not to long ago the news broke that certain stores would no longer allow the purchase of Vanilla Reloads with credit cards. That was big news as a lot of people only knew how to load Bluebird by using Vanilla Reloads from a three letter store. But there is another way. Below are some steps…
Earlier today I tweeted how I was having a good 100k day. A 100,000 bonus point offer is hard to beat, so it never gets old to get one of these little envelopes with the 100,000 writing on the cover. The only time it gets better than this is when the cover says 150,000 like…
A few weeks ago I shared how I was applying for the SPG Amex credit card. One of the benefits of the card in addition to the signup bonus offer, is the 2 stay and 5 night credit each year. This benefit actually posts immediately upon activating the card. Seeing as though I’m only 4…
Signing up for credit card offers in April is likely on a few folks radar given the rumored changes coming on May 1st. I first narrowed down my strategy to 4 cards from many but then applied to only 3 cards. After applying for all three of them yesterday, I’ve captured the results below. How…
