News in brief:
American Express transfers to Singapore Airlines will return
A few readers got in touch over the weekend to say that Singapore Airlines had disappeared as a transfer partner from the American Express Membership Rewards website.
It is usually best to assume that these sort of things are just temporary IT issues – Amex doesn’t have a track record of making no-notice changes to Membership Rewards.
I checked with the company yesterday and they confirmed that there has been no permanent change and that you will be able to make transfers again soon.
The IHG winter sale is on
IHG has launched its winter sale covering its hotels in Europe, India, the Middle East and Africa.
Booking is open now and runs until 21st January.
You can book for stays up to 31st March.
The headline offer is 15% off Best Available Rate, albeit sale rates are non-refundable and non-cancellable. In reality, you are probably saving about 5% on the usual Advanced Purchase rate.
You can find out more on this special page of the IHG website.
This offer will double up with the current IHG One Rewards ‘double points’ bonus. This gives you double base points on all cash stays until 31st March but only from your second cash stay after registration.
You can find out more about the bonus points offer here and the all-important registration link is here.
The home page for the sale is here.
