1. The Synchrony Mastercard has an increased sign-up bonus of $100 after $1,000 spend in 60 days. The card earns a flat 2%, and carries no annual fee. Also, I know it’s redundant but it’s Synchrony.
  2. American Express has a 30% transfer bonus to Virgin Atlantic through November 30.
  3. Capital One added Copa ConnectMiles as a 2000:1500 transfer partner. There’s a 30% transfer bonus through December 1, pushing the ratio to 2000:1950 because why keep it simple when you can be annoying? Sweet spots:

    – United domestic Polaris, 25,000 miles each way, plus decent non-saver award pricing
    – Emirates business: 80,000 miles each way with minimal surcharge

    Copa ConnectMiles expire after 24 months but expiration is easily reset with activity.
  4. Giftcards.com has a $10 bonus giftcards.com gift card with the purchase of a $100 Visa e-gift card using promo code GIVEMORE. This code is now on all the major airline portals, so hit those bonuses.

Happy Tuesday friends!
