Congratulations! It’s Friday, and you survived the work week!

I’ve got a reward for all that hard work: some amazing points and miles deals to help you turn that mid-Friday daydream into a real trip.

Here’s what we’ve got:

• ✈️ Use this award tool to save points

✈️ Use this award tool to save points

If you don’t have Daily Drop Pro yet, you might want to reconsider… Before I tell you why, I’ll tell you that we’re currently offering $50 off your first year with our Labor Day Sale.

What is Daily Drop Pro, you ask?

At its core, it’s an award search tool. When you have a trip in mind and want to find how to book it with points, you can simply run searches in Daily Drop Pro to find the best deals.

Even if you’re savvy with points and miles, you might be surprised at some of the results you find.

For example, I needed to book a flight from Montreal to Toronto next week. It’s a short domestic flight in Canada, so your first instinct might be to go to Aeroplan, book a flight for 11,000 points, and call it a day.

But that would be a mistake, and you’d be wasting points.

If you run a search in Daily Drop Pro, you’ll see that there are actually tons of daily flights on Porter Airlines for 4,500 points, bookable with Atmos Rewards.

If you didn’t know about this unique partnership, you’d be spending double what you actually need to.

Oh, and if the screenshot above looks a little different than what you’re used to seeing on Daily Drop Pro, that’s because we’ve got brand-new search functionality. It looks better, works faster, and most importantly – has a much wider range of results. 😎

Sign up now while your first year is $50 off. The sale is only valid through September 8, so you’ll want to move quickly. 👇

🌎 Atmos Rewards Global Getaways

Speaking of Atmos Rewards… there’s another reason you’re about to wish you had a pile of them sitting around.

Atmos is back with their monthly Global Getaways promo, offering discounted award flights around the world for a limited time.

You need to book these deals by TOMORROW, and each destination has a specific travel window where the pricing applies (mostly early in 2027).

Before we get into it, I just gotta say – it’s kind of annoying how last-minute these sales are. Like… at least give us a week or something.😒 

Okay, enough complaining into the void.

Here are the destinations and prices:

• London, England for 20,000 points

• Apia, Samoa for 25,500 points

• Athens, Greece for 25,000 points

• Taipei, Taiwan for 30,000 points

• La Paz, Mexico for 20,000 points

• Tokyo, Japan for 27,500 points

So, which of these deals are worth it and which ones should you skip?

London and Athens are both bookable for WAY fewer points using programs like Flying Blue and Virgin Atlantic, sometimes for just 6,000 miles.

So those two are out.

Tokyo is a good deal, but you can also fly there using just 27,000 JAL miles (which transfer from Bilt, Capital One, and Rove) for the same price from the U.S.

The big difference is that Atmos will charge you lower cash fees than JAL… but Atmos points are also harder to earn.

Taipei, Samoa, and La Paz are all good deals. The first two are far away, expensive cities to fly to. Samoa is literally on the other side of the world from most of the U.S., so getting there for 25,000 points is awesome.

La Paz isn’t as far, but it is a pretty small airport with limited options, so paying 20,000 points isn’t crazy.

This is another example of why we love Atmos Rewards so much… they really have some of the best deals in any part of the world.

The only way to transfer to Atmos is from Bilt Rewards, so if you want to get in on next month’s deals, make sure you go rack up some Bilt Points ASAP.

🏨 Earn 2k IHG points per 2 nights (targeted)

IHG is out with a new targeted promotion to earn 2,000 bonus points per two nights.

This one is short and simple, so here are the details:

• You must be targeted and register for the offer

• Valid only for cash stays

• Valid for stays between September 1 and September 30

• Maximum of 6,000 points earned

For reference, you can buy IHG points for just $0.005 each when they have a sale going on, so these 2,000 bonus points are worth about $10, and the cap of 6,000 points is worth about $30.

So yeah… nothing to write home about.

Still, if you’ve been targeted for the offer and have any IHG stays coming up, you might as well register and get the extra bonus points.

If you’re looking to maximize your stays further, you can pay for the stay with an IHG co-branded credit card.

When you tally up the points from being an IHG member, card earnings, and these bonus points, it starts to get interesting.

Anyway… IHG – do better next time, please. 🙏🏼

💳 Current Transfer Bonuses 💳

That does it for this week, folks. I’ll be off all of next week, so you’ll be getting emails from the rest of our wonderful team until I’m back.
