Hotel Discount Codes
Orbitz is offering $50 Off hotel bookings of 3 or more nights. Discount code is 831750. It’s valid for stays through April 30th but the booking must be made by March 22. This presumably applies only to OrbitzSaver prepaid hotel deals. Meanwhile, Travelocity is offering $10 off “Good Buy” hotels with code HTL10. This can be used even on a single night stay, but can only be used once per Travelocity account (except for Travelocity VIPs who can use it an unlimited number of times). Flyertalk member CalItalian reported these discounts and noted, regarding the $50 Orbitz coupon, Best deals I found were weeknights in Reno or Laughlin, NV. 3*, 3 night stay with coupon for $25 to $28 plus tax.

Diners Club BA Transfer Bonus is Back
Mar

2006
Looks like the 50% bonus on Diners Club transfers to British Airways is back, valid between May 1 and August 31, 2006. There’s no information online yet but it’s mentioned in the program insert that comes with March bills. Not as good as the old days where the bonus was 100% during the summer, but better than a hole in the head and a welcome relief considering recent cutbacks in the Diners Club Club Rewards program. I’ll be taking advantage of this one, topping off my BA account for some transatlantic premium class flying… especially since the alternate uses for Diners Club points have dwindled with the departure of United, USAirways, America West, Northwest, and Continental from the program. Update: Details are available on the British Airways website though not yet on the Diners Club…

2006
Freepay, aka Gratis Networks (the free iPod folks), has made a really annoying unilateral change to their terms and conditions. First, you’ll have only 90 days start to finish to complete their requirements. Second, you now have to place your orders by mail instead of electronically and there are deadlines for doing so. Apparently this was announced March 1 and everyone with existing accounts therefore has until the end of May to finish their existing free electronics offers. Here’s the note sent out to all accounts: Important Change to Terms & Conditions With a start date of March 1, 2006 – users of FreePay websites have 90 days to complete all offer requirements. Upon completion of all offer requirements, existing users will need to print a “Redemption Form” that must be filled out in its…
