Fast Marriott Elite Status:  Other hotels are doing it, so why not Marriott?  It’s no secret that hotels are hurting for business so they’re pulling out all the stops to lure customers.  These could be great opportunities for us to earn elite status.

This Is Why You Crunch The Numbers:  Every travel blogger was talking about the fast track to Hyatt Globalist status.  It really is amazing.  However I haven’t seen someone crunch the numbers quite like this guy did.  I’m really tempted to replicate his plan.

Portugal On Points And Miles:  It’s easy to forget that booking your next international trip can be done with as little as 2 card bonuses.  With the right combination of points and miles, you can have an amazing vacation and have your flights and hotel stay covered.

Getting Creative On Everyday Spending:  Most of us have a card we use on “everyday” spending, or non bonus spending.  We try to get at least 2% back on spending, whether it be cash back or 2 points per dollar.  Here are some ideas to take your everyday spending to the next level.

Negative Covid Result Required To Enter US By Air:  A lot of us were looking to travel internationally in 2021 after a rough 2020.  I personally have a couple of trips booked.  Another thing we have to consider is getting a negative result prior to coming back to the US.

Guide To Marriott Bonvoy:  If you’re new to this hobby, you may be overwhelmed with the lingo and the rules for every loyalty program.  One of the popular hotel loyalty programs is Marriott Bonvoy for their large worldwide footprint and amazing perks for those with elite status.

Clearing Up Confusion On Avios:  Three airlines use Avios, however they each use them differently.  Here’s a great guide explaining the ins and outs of the Avios program and maximizing those miles.
