✈️ Flash sale on Delta One long-haul flights

Speaking of airlines and flight deals, Delta is having a flash sale that has good news and bad news.

The bad news is that the sale ends TODAY. The good news is that… the sale ends today… so you can still lock in some deals.

Specifically, this is a sale for Delta One seats, which is their most premium long-haul business class product.

And while the prices are high, there are some ways to ease the pain.

The deals

The best way to find deals with this sale is to go to the sale page, select your origin city, and see what pops up.

From New York City, here are some of the offers:

As you can see, 230,00 miles round trip is about as low as this sale goes…

But 115,000 miles each way for long-haul Delta One isn’t terrible. Plus, if you have a Delta co-branded card (most of which have elevated offers right now), you get 15% off those award flights thanks to the TakeOff15 benefit.

That means you could really pay just under 98,000 miles each way to places like Portugal, Italy, Ghana, Nigeria, and beyond.

Speaking of cards…

If that still seems high to you, you’re not wrong.

But also, you can frequently earn hundreds of thousands of Delta miles with the welcome offers on their co-branded cards.

For example, I opened up this premium Delta business card last year, which currently has a six-figure welcome offer. 🤑 

Obviously, that won’t help you with a sale that ends today – but it shows that it’s actually easier than you might think to get that many miles in your account so you can be ready for the next sale.

The bottom line

Delta is having a sale on premium awards. It’s expensive, but not terrible for what you get.

If you’ve got a stash of SkyMiles in your account, check out the sale before it ends tonight.

If not, I’ll point you to where you can get some miles for next time. 👇

🏨 Transfer Hyatt points between accounts

I know the world can seem like a pretty dark and hopeless place sometimes. Trust me, I feel the same.

But I want to tell you something. It’s all going to be okay – because World of Hyatt now allows you to transfer points between accounts. For free.

Obviously, this does cure all of the world’s issues.

So let me tell you how it works.

The details

There are some restrictions around this, as follows:

• Both accounts must be open for 60 days before sending or receiving a transfer

• You can transfer up to 525,000 points per year

• You can only make six free transfers per calendar year (so choose them wisely)

• You must transfer a minimum of 1,000 points in 500-point increments beyond that

So yeah, it’s pretty chill. And the process is easy:

How to actually do it

First, you’ll simply go to this page on Hyatt’s site. There, you’ll see the option to “gift points.”

After logging in to your account, you’ll select the number of points you want to transfer, along with how many points you’ll have left over afterward.

Finally, you’ll arrive at a form where you’ll need to enter the recipient’s name, World of Hyatt number, and a few other details.

And voila. You’ve now transferred Hyatt points.

Why this is very good

Let’s say you want to book a trip with your spouse or friend.

Maybe you each have some Hyatt points, or you both sign up for a Hyatt credit card and rack up some points for the stay.

You could each book nights at the same hotel, but wouldn’t automatically get the same benefits, be able to stay in the same room, etc.

Now, you can simply funnel all of your points to the person with the best status (or who needs the elite nights most) and book a single stay.

If you play in 2-player mode, this also means you can now effectively transfer points from UR points and Bilt Rewards to your partner’s Hyatt account.

Simply open a card with a solid welcome offer, transfer points to your own account, then on to your partner’s account.

The bottom line

This is good news, and long overdue. It’s nice to see that after all of the devaluations, we at least have a tiny win with Hyatt.

And if you have Hyatt points that you can’t use, reach out to me – I’ll be happy to take them off your hands. 😉
