Hyatt Suite Upgrades Available

Friends and countrymen, let me know if you are planning on booking a Hyatt stay. I have 3 suite upgrades that will be going to waste in the next week. I’ll try to edit this post when these are gone (which will probably be at some point in the morning). See, I really do love you!!


Edit: These are gone. Well, they are as good as gone. Lots of emails to respond to. Will do it later tonight. Thanks.

Tuesday’s Deals

  • 600 miles for a survey (if you have a United credit card).
  • Credit cards and manufactured spending are still the top ways to rack up big miles/points. If you haven’t done much spending, I’m enjoying this now 3-part guide (Part 1, Part 2, Part 3).
  • Win 250,000 American miles.
  • 25% bonus buying British Airways points.
  • Use code KLATRAVEL-FTD on your first Silvercar reservation for $50 off. Very limited cities, but cool company that only rents Audi A4 cars. If you haven’t signed up yet, use code RWALIA2 when you register for a free $25.

Win A Million Virgin Australia Points

Just tweet what you’d do with Richard Branson’s points. Include the first 3 digits of your membership number, the answer, and the hashtag #WinRichardsPoints. This contest is for early birds only (ends at 8:00 AM eastern) so act fast. If you still don’t have a Twitter account…this isn’t the year 1985. Ronald Reagan is no longer President. Your name isn’t Marty McFly. Even if you don’t want to tweet, you really need to be signed up just for contests and to stay current with information. Happy Valentine’s Day and have a great weekend…MileNerd is Audi 5000!

Dear Canadians:

You are a complete mystery to me. Your frigid northern land seems like it should be miserable. Yet, your citizens are some of the friendliest people around. How is this possible? What secrets do you hold? How, I ask, can you possibly be so happy? Also, free healthcare seems fun.

Sincerely,

MileNerd

P.S. 25,000 Aeroplan miles for cold and happy Canadians.

P.P.S. Please take Justin Bieber back.
