In this Quick Hits episode, DeAndre breaks down a busy week across the points and miles world, with a strong focus on recent devaluations, shifting transfer bonuses, and new opportunities to watch.
He covers Bilt’s latest Rent Day promo, highlighting reduced Avios transfer bonuses and newly introduced caps that signal a shift in strategy after previous generous offers. The episode also dives into multiple airline devaluations, including upcoming changes to Aeroplan and LifeMiles, emphasizing the importance of locking in redemptions before prices increase.
On the positive side, DeAndre explores new competition in the transfer partner space, including Wells Fargo adding Cathay Pacific Asia Miles, which could shake up the ecosystem moving forward. He also outlines Hyatt’s confirmed devaluation date and what it means for award bookings and free night certificates.
To close, he shares a valuable tool for travelers, Autopilot, which helps track and automatically reprice flights and hotels, along with current transfer bonuses and updates on the upcoming BoldlyGo community meetup in Miami.
