Portland/Seattle Stays

If you happen to be staying in Seattle or Portland before the end of February, this looks like a potentially strong offer (by IHG’s standards).

The up to 10% off part is nothing spectacular…but 10,000 bonus points per night at Kimpton properties is what will appeal to some. Especially if you’re planning on staying for awhile, have an extended work trip, etc. This one could be good for the right person. Have a great weekend, nerds!

Delta Deal

At this point…I don’t even know anymore.

There’s another Delta award deal and, like the rest of them lately, it’s pretty damn good. Some nice round-trip options priced between 10,000 and 15,000 miles.

Here’s how I see it…

Imagine if you took your dog out for his daily dump, pulled out your disposal bag, looked down, and saw a gold coin sitting there instead. And then the next day…you go back out and the same thing happens again.

Shit Turning To Gold: The Delta Story

(for now)

Midweek Triple

  • The up-and-down life of Wall Street Journal subscriptions is up once again. If you go with 12 weeks for $12, it’s worth up to 2,200 miles now.
  • Kimpton’s latest Last Minute Deal list is out. As always, Kimpton has a unique mixed impact. Incredibly loyal fans on one hand and people wondering “What the hell is Kimpton?” on the other hand.
  • The latest Southwest sale is as rare as…traffic in New York? A spelling error on the internet? A strange Nicolas Cage moment? Something like that…

 

Qantas Discounted Award Travel

Many deals appeal to a wide audience here…

…and then there’s today’s post.

In what is almost certainly my last Qantas post ever, save 25% on Economy Classic Flight Rewards if you book by Friday.

P.S. That’s for reader Jackson who, believe it or not, has been wanting more Qantas deals for years.

P.P.S. Nobody else has asked.

 

Monday Stuff

  • Win 100,000 miles from Alaska here.
  • Don’t be alarmed if you actually win the Hilton raffle I mentioned last month. Heard from reader Trevor again…the odds of winning it are currently 1 in 67 with the deadline almost here.
  • A bunch of readers (and me) were given free American status for a few months. Also some 500-mile upgrades thrown in. Definitely worth logging in to see if you’re targeted for anything.
  • Hawaii flights from the west coast under 300 bucks round-trip are also worth a click.
  • The new and almost-certainly-not-improved IHG PointBreaks list will be out later today.
