You know how there are filler articles around the churning-blog-o-sphere on slow news days? All I can say about yesterday, is: wow next level guys. Anyway, there are a couple of notes:
- New American Express Hilton no-lifetime language links surfaced for the personal cards:
– Aspire: 175,000 points after $6,000 spend in six months
– Surpass: 130,000 points after $3,000 spend in six months, $0 first year fee
– Honors: 100,000 points + $100 statement credit after $2,000 spend in six months
There’s no business no-lifetime language version unfortunately. If you don’t care about lifetime language, the business also has a heightened offer of 130,000 points and a waived annual fee for the first year here. (Thanks to DDG) - Emirates devalued award redemptions, the summary:
– First: 14.7%-15.2% increase in my searches
– Business: 14.9% increase in my searches
– Economy: No change in my searches
– Upgrades: 10%-15% increase in my searches
There’s a small positive change too: one-way saver business fares are now bookable, a round-trip is no longer required.
Happy Thursday, and if you want a bonus for today, check here or here.
A solid metaphor for yesterday’s content in the churnosphere.
