Points and Deals Update

April 8, 2014 By Leana Leave a Comment

1) Frontier Airlines Barclaycard added a new benefit to their credit card offer. You can get 0% APR on purchases for a year. This card is my number one choice in the secondary list of bonuses and does pay me referral. However, I would apply for US Airways card (pays no commission) before any other Barclaycards.

2) There is a promo from Air France for 50% off awards, including coach. Flights start at only  12500 miles one-way and  taxes are not exorbitant. Air France is a transfer partner of SPG and Amex Membership Rewards program. You can read more about it HERE 

3) US Airways has brought back their “Share miles” promotion, where you get a 100 percent bonus after transferring 30000 miles or more to/from your friend’s account. It runs through April 13th, so not a lot of time to take advantage of this deal. The cost works out to be a little over 1.1 cent per mile if you transfer 50000 miles. This might be the last chance to do it because of the merger with American Airlines. More details HERE

4) I’ve written about this benefit before, but it’s worth mentioning again. If you have an Amex card, you may qualify to get a  Shoprunner benefit, which offers a free 2-day shipping. I’ve used it myself for purchases on Newegg. Check if your card qualifies HERE (h/t Million Mile Secrets)
