A new Marriott Amex Offer gives targeted cardholders the opportunity to save $50 when spending at least $200 on room rates and room charges at participating Marriott Bonvoy hotels.
Chase just announced an increased limited time offer for the Marriott Bonvoy Boundless Credit Card — allowing new applicants a chance to scoop up six figures worth of bonus Bonvoy points.
U.S. News & World Report crowned Delta SkyMiles the first runner-up in the Best Airlines Rewards Programs survey — for the third consecutive year.
The topics of “independence” and “travel,” got my mind going a bit. I thought about “free agents”: people who shop around for the best deal and don’t stick to just one airline or hotel loyalty program.
Many Rene’s Points readers are very loyal — or at least rather partial — to Delta Air Lines. Because I’m a Delta Medallion and fly the mothership during 90% of my travels, really I’m not an airline free agent per se.
At least not yet, though the mothership sometimes does cute things to test us (like upgrade people in Basic Economy, sell first class seats for $2, devalue SkyMiles…)
Hotel-wise, that’s a different story. That’s where I am a free agent and I must say — I kind of like it.
Like most things in life, it has its pros and cons.
