Alaska Airlines Hawaii sale - $99 each way


Alaska Airlines has just announced a 3-day sale to Hawaii, with fares starting at $99 each way in basic economy ($129 for regular economy) for flights between West Coast cities and Hawaii.  The sale is good for flights booked by 11:59pm PST on March 5, 2020 with travel between April 21 and May 20, 2020, but the best fares could be booked up far before then.  Here are a number of their sample fares:


  • Sale Dates: 3/3/20 @ 12:00am PT – 3/5/20 @ 11:59pm PT
  • Travel Dates: 4/21/20 – 5/20/20, flights to/from Hawaii on Tues/Wed only
  • Pricing: Fares start at $99 one-way (Saver) / $129 one-way (Main)
Alaska Airlines also has their "Book with confidence" policy currently in place, which waives all change and cancellation fees for flights booked between February 27 and March 12 for travel through June 1, 2020, so these cheap fares to Hawaii would all be exempt from change and cancellation fees.


Quick thoughts

These are some good deals to Hawaii as you can score tickets for <$200 roundtrip from West Coast cities to Hawaii.  In addition, you'll be able to cancel or change your flights without a fee, though the fare difference (if any) will still apply.  If you've been contemplating a trip to the Aloha State this spring, this would be the perfect opportunity with cheap fares and no change/cancellation fees.

Citi temporarily adds American Airlines as a mileage transfer partner!

Image
In a surprise move, Citi has added American Airlines as a transfer partner for their ThankYou Points (TYP) earning credit cards.  What's especially intriguing is that even no annual fee cards that normally don't offer transfers to loyalty programs are eligible for this new and temporary partnership, albeit at a lower transfer ratio.  Citi's premium line of cards, including the Prestige and the Premier, both have 1:1 transfer capability with AAdvantage miles (1,000 TYP = 1,000 AAdvantage miles).  Whereas no annual fee cards, including the ThankYou Preferred and the Rewards+, get a 2:1 transfer ratio (1,000 TYP = 500 AAdvantage miles).  This transfer partnership is valid from July 18 through November 13, though one could speculate that it could be extended. American Airlines AAdvantage program was the only loyalty program out of the three U.S. legacy carriers that didn't have a 1:1 transfer partner with any credit card accounts.  Delta has long been a transfer partner wit

Park Hyatt Sydney review

Image
For our trip to Australia's east coast, we started off with a 4-night stay in Sydney.  We decided to stay at the Park Hyatt Sydney as it has been consistently rated as one of the best Hyatt luxury properties worldwide.  The hotel, located in the heart of Sydney Harbor at the Rocks, is famous for its stunning views of the Opera House and Harbour Bridge. Price As a category 8 hotel, the Park Hyatt Sydney is Hyatt's most expensive award category ranging from 35k-45k points per night.  Fortunately, since we were traveling during Australia's "slower" winter season, we were able to get off-peak rates of 35k for most of our nights in a standard 1 King Bed room. Seeing how the hotel's standard rooms were over $700 a night during our stay, this was a pretty good redemption value at well over 2 cents per point.  This hotel is also known for releasing tons of free night award space, even during peak travel times.  This is atypical for many Hyatt top-tier hotels such as t
