New Virgin America Offer
As always, I love seeing any non-Chase/Citibank credit card offers. This one from Barclays is for 10,000 points and a free roundtrip after spending $1,000. The offer is here.
What To Do About Hilton
Judging by the “Hilton Is Dead To Me” emails, many of you know Hilton points will be worth a lot less very soon. A good summary is here. Unfortunately, this devaluation will hit us where it hurts most – at the really nice properties. I’m not at liberty to share my experience with Hilton complaints, but I know for a fact that your Twitter and Facebook outrage can be very, very effective. Many of you have been saving up Hilton points like crazy, so with this news, here’s what I suggest:
- Complain on Twitter and Facebook. Be persistent, angry, and loud.
- If you’ve been saving for something big, book before March 28th. Some of the best Hilton Honors options are in the Maldives, Tokyo, Hong Kong, Rome, Maui, Thailand, and Venice.
- Start looking at Starwood, Hyatt, and Club Carlson credit cards.
- If you have either of the Ink cards (or the Sapphire), consider Hyatt point transfers with your Ultimate Rewards points.
