IHG Rewards Club Pointbreaks  April 30 – July 31st, 2018

Rooms from only 5000 or 10,000 or 15000 points per night.

Book HERE. 

IHG (Intercontinental Hotels Group), the worlds largest hotel and loyalty programme has released a full hotel list for booking.

If you are un-familiar on how to stay for free at top end Intercontinental and Crowne Plaza Hotels kindly read on:

What is Pointbreaks ?

Pointbreaks is the hotel industry’s most economical ( un-matched and un-rivalled) promotion as +200 hotels ( out of 4900 +) are available for the redemption of a mere 5000 points ( it has now been changed to allocate better hotels at 10,000 and 15,000 points per night) regardless of what the normal points reward rate is per night.

How do you earn IHG points ?

You can earn points from stays at hotels or taking up their super lucrative challenges every quarter ( personally I earn massive points in their on-going quarterly Accelerate promo blended with 100% bonuses as a Spire Elite – see my Instagram @traveloyalty )

If you don’t have points, Traveloyalty can show you how to manufacture points using this method HERE at a rate of $35 per 5000. ( That’s half the rate the website sells them at ). It can now be done at $30 per 5000 and on a good points+cash sale at $22.50 per 5000 points

You can also buy points on sale offers during the year and earn up to 100% bonus on purchases. Currently there is a 80% bonus offering HERE.

Off course personally, I would rather spend the money on a stay and collect all the points + bonuses for free.

Remember when you book on points you SAVE ON TAXES.

First Class trip to Disney World, Orlando. Scoring upgrades and scoring more. Repeat.

What started out as a random conversation in traffic one afternoon during mid June regarding my late 1980’s adventures to Disney World in my youth and how awesome it was as I still rate it as one of best days of my life, got the kids worked up again , ‘please lets not go to back Maldives, lets do Disney’ was their response after experiencing a bit of theme parks in Malaysia and Singapore during April’s trips abroad.

4  Saa Voyager Journeyblitz. Ends March12.

Posted this few days back on my Instagram way before SAA had it up when avail was oh-so-plentiful.

Take note there are quite a few changes. Mostly positive for economy and Negative for Business class routes. My favourite booking to Hong Kong in Business now costs 42k miles and taxes have gone up too, booking return swop the country of booking and taxes are lower on the Inbound. Economy New York is now 13k miles…  who on earth redeems Voyager miles for domestic travel.

If you new on this and not sure what to do, use the window search ‘journeyblitz’ on www.traveloyalty.com for all previous advice and tips to avoid errors.

Log into Voyager to book.

Access the new award chart info HERE.

5  Daily Getaways are up soon. Preview April 2.

If you new to travelling #thesmarterway you will love this promo where many are able to buy extra deals on top of their yearly thresholds. Apparently Amex is now back on board as a sponsor so lets hope we score the extra -10% off that eluded us last year.

Simply the most awesome sale of buying hotel points, buying loyalty status and theme park tickets that comes along only once a year. I invested in heaps of specials is the last few years. Don’t miss out.

Stocks are limited. Some are so limited, jetsetters sit at their laptops and ipads clicking refresh continuously waiting for the sale to go live at the time stipulated and then in a matter of 15 seconds it will be sold out as it always does in previous years. ( take note of your time zone)

Please note: points takes 10 days to ship to your Loyalty account and use any American address when filling out the billing.

IHG Rewards Club Pointbreaks  January 29 – April 30, 2018

Rooms from only 5000 or 10,000 or 15000 points per night.

Book HERE. 

Link above will only be updated Monday 29th for bookings.

IHG (Intercontinental Hotels Group), the worlds largest hotel and loyalty programme has released a full hotel list for booking.

If you are un-familiar on how to stay for free at top end Intercontinental and Crowne Plaza Hotels kindly read on:

What is Pointbreaks ?

Pointbreaks is the hotel industry’s most economical ( un-matched and un-rivalled) promotion as +200 hotels ( out of 4900 +) are available for the redemption of a mere 5000 points ( it has now been changed to allocate better hotels at 10,000 and 15,000 points per night) regardless of what the normal points reward rate is per night.

How do you earn IHG points ?

You can earn points from stays at hotels or taking up their super lucrative challenges every quarter ( personally I earn massive points in their on-going quarterly Accelerate promo blended with 100% bonuses as a Spire Elite – see my Instagram @traveloyalty )

If you don’t have points, Traveloyalty can show you how to manufacture points using this method HERE at a rate of $35 per 5000. ( That’s half the rate the website sells them at ). It can now be done at $30 per 5000 and on a good points+cash sale at $22.50 per 5000 points

You can also buy points on sale offers during the year and earn up to 100% bonus on purchases. Currently there is a 75% bonus offering HERE. ( Offer ends Feb 28 )

Off course personally, I would rather spend the money on a stay and collect all the points + bonuses for free.

Remember when you book on points you SAVE ON TAXES.

My Take:

Check the cancellation policy with the new Pointbreaks, They should be refundable close to check in as previous offers. Hopefully Pointbreaks will add many premium properties, especially the Intercontinental’s that have now moved to 70k points per night. Its been a really dry few seasons without great hotels where previously Intercontinental Tahiti, Bora Bora and Kandooma Maldives ( my all time favorite and most craved for holiday destination, review HERE) have made their appearances.

I visited the Antalya Crowne Plaza property some time back when many Turkish IHG hotels were on Pointbreaks. Will definitely load some bookings here for the upcoming travel season, as 5k is a steal. Trip review HERE.

They also allowing points+cash… wow this opens up so many more avenues to stretching trips and a budget. Cant wait for the full list to see how to max it.

2 Hilton Honors changes.

Hilton just mailed out ” Breakfast now included at Waldorf Astoria ‘ brands late December followed by this weeks news on what seems to be yearly changes to the programme, while mostly positive in all especially for Diamonds, the luck of scoring “double dip” in bonus “points” will cease to exist post April.

3. Business class to Cairo return for R6800.

2018 is set to be bumper year! Especially if you scored Dubai last week for R2200 return. But this in business is a massive score.

Availability seems wide open for 2018 up to November ( I got 7 at a time , you may get more) including peak, December 2017,  January 2019  and holidays ahead.

Please READ the instructions below, do not email me asking me to type what I typed below. If you don’t get avail try a search with less passengers and different dates and if you get nothing. It could be late and sold out.

Search with dates in Momondo ( this is a search site) it will link to a OTA ( online travel agency) to book through. you can use any flavour (country version) of Momondo

Out on KQ ( thats the code for Kenyan Airways) seems you will get the new Dreamliner B787 in Business class. With MS ( this is Egypt Air’s code) you will get a 737. You can search on Seatguru ( a website) using your KQ and MS code to have seat inventory and type of craft. I hope all days have the Dreamliner out JNB ( this is OR Tambo’s code)

B787 Dream)liner bliss for under $500, unheard of!

You can credit your KQ flight to Etihad at best ( this stacks with family bonus and the J class payout beautifully), or any Skyteam member you choose. With MS you can credit to any Star Alliance member I choose TK ( Turkish) or SA ( South African)

What to do in Egypt?

Definitely go to Sharm  El Shaikh. Read my trip review HERE.

Theres heaps more info on the website from Cairo to Alexandria.
