Hump Day Deals

Rapid-fire time…

  • There’s nothing as predictable as death and taxes. Except Southwest and JetBlue sales.
  • IHG has a 15 to 30% off sale going in the United States, Canada, and Latin America. It’s up to 50% for Europe.
  • Save some Delta SkyDongs to London (their domestic deal is still going too). I like these promos. It’s so nice to see dongs going a little further these days.
  • For me, Starwood’s Pay Your Birth Year promo is much like a Martin Lawrence movie. Not that good, but I get strangely excited whenever I see it.
  • The Capital One Spark credit card bonus is up to $1,000. Good money if spending $10,000 isn’t an issue.

Tuesday Triple

  • Call right at 11:00 AM CST to have a good shot at an $11 room at the Conrad Chicago.
  • Spend a buck, get 1,000 United miles, and a Wall Street Journal subscription. Just make sure to cancel after 45 days.
  • Total Rewards and Wyndham platinum status is available as a thank you to members of the military if you can show up in person.

Airline Promos

  • Register here, book a flight with JetBlue points by tomorrow, and get 15% of them back. Will I take advantage? Come on. Is the sky blue? Is Harvey Weinstein’s career over? Is it annoying when people use the word “bae”? Of course I’m taking advantage.
  • Register here for up to 50,000 bonus American miles for going through their list of activities. At the link, scroll down to “General” and “Earning bonus miles” for the specifics. I’m passing on this one.
  • Save some SkyDongs if you have a Delta domestic flight to book. This one is a solid “maybe.”

End Of Week Stuff

  • A bunch of good new card links this week. Crazily, I might actually get approved for these two – Barclays American Business (40,000 points with no spend) and Amex Hilton Surpass (125,000 points, might need to try the link in an incognito browser).
  • This may be hard to believe, but through the end of the day, there’s a JetBlue sale on the internet.
  • American is giving away a million miles. Jetsmarter is giving away a free private jet flight if you’re a fancy person with a fancy watch.

Have a great weekend, nerds!

JetBlue Two

Since I never shut up about it being my favorite airline for domestic coach travel…of course I’m happy to see an all-time high JetBlue bonus. I’ll definitely give this one a shot for 60,000 points. Speaking of JetBlue, here’s something unique and potentially interesting for the right person. A complimentary trip to Jamaica, Houston, or the Bahamas if you’re interested in volunteering.
