Mike FriedmanTRAVEL DEALS – Points and Miles Promos
A lot of us aren’t traveling these days, but that hasn’t stopped the travel companies from offering travel deals and promotions (Points And Miles Promos) for those who are. Rather than write about each one individually, we’ve decided that it’s easier to centralize them on one page, which we’ll update as bonus opportunities are added. Enjoy!

Points and Miles Promos
February and March 2022
Travel Deals – Airline Promotions
It’s always good to pay attention to the travel deals that are focused around airlines, especially the points and miles promos
Delta
Be sure to link both your Lyft and Starbucks account to your Delta account so that you can earn miles whenever you use the merchants. Maybe take a Lyft to pick up your Starbucks?
United Airlines
Check out Bilt Rewards for a free status match to United Airlines elite status.
Travel Deals – Hotel Promotions
Hotel Deals, they can be huge, as well as a massive part of your travel deals optimization strategy. In any case, you should always pay attention to travel deals and it never hurts to register for new promotions. If you are just getting started in the world of points and miles, be sure to check out our guide.
Accor Hotels
Best Western
Stay two nights and get an 8,000 point bonus, through May 7. Don’t forget to register. Max of 16,000 points.
Hilton
Hilton has gone back to its double points promo which, all things considered, is pretty good. Added bonus of 1,000 points each time you stay at a different brand.
Hyatt
Sadly, Hyatt has picked up Marriott’s bad habit of offering targeted promotions. Check your email for yours.
IHG
IHG continues their “stay 2 nights and get 2,000 points” promo through April 14. Be sure to register.
Marriott
Marriott has gotten away from single offers for everyone and moved toward targeted promotions. Sign into your account and look under the promotions tab.
Radisson
Finally, a decent offer other than Hilton. Earn 5,000 points per stay through March 20.
Credit Cards
Credit cards can be a great way to rack up miles in a hurry, particularly if you find a lucrative sign-up bonus.* We’re going to focus only on the ones that are offering better-than-normal bonuses (e.g., a card that normally offers a 30K points bonus has a limited-time-only promotion offering 50K).
Right now, the best offer that I am seeing is the Chase Sapphire Preferred, which has a 60,000 point sign-up bonus when you spend $4,000 in the first three months.
Cash Back Shopping
Points and miles rule #2 states that you should never shop online without getting some sort of rebate. We discuss the best ways to do so on our page about cash back shopping portals.
While any of these sites are good ones, Mr. Rebates seems to be pushing the hardest this month to offer the best rewards. That would be my first stop.

But please keep two things in mind: First, we will never post a card simply because of the opportunity to earn money. In fact, we own most of the cards personally that show up on the “our favorite cards” page. And second, if we see a better offer for the same card that we can give you, we will direct you to it. We promise. The content on this page is all ours. The companies that we discuss do not review or endorse it. All opinions are ours. You can’t have them.
