WestJet changes: Partial sale, Sunwing, points, portal, Canadian Tire

3 days ago | flytrippers.com | Andrew D'Amours

That’s a lot, so I’m summarizing the essentials of this airline’s updates regarding this airline that we haven’t covered much because frankly it was quite uninteresting… but it is certainly a bit more interesting now! In addition to Porter becoming a true major airline and launching new credit cards with absolutely phenomenal offers (≈ $1142 (CAD 1590) in points redeemable on Air Transat or Porter), the more competitive future of the Canadian travel rewards market gives us reason to be...

Reviews of the 17 airlines of my round-the-world trip (part 2)

You can read part 1 which also explains the context, if you missed it. Airline #10: Vietnam Airlines 🇻🇳Vietnam Airlines is a Vietnamese airline with a fleet of 96 aircraft. It has been part of SkyTeam since 2010. In Canada, Vietnam Airlines has no routes. In the United States, it serves San Francisco (incidentally, I almost took that route for my return; it was among the cheapest transpacific flights for my dates).
Upcoming changes within global airline alliances

1 week ago | flytrippers.com | Andrew D'Amours

We’ll probably never see anything like the most phenomenal promotion related to an alliance change when SAS (Scandinavian Airlines) gave 1 million points to travelers like me last fall. Still… airline points are the most valuable reward currencies, by far (for economy class but especially for business class). Thanks to not tied to the flight’s cash price.
How it is to enter the United States for Canadians (May 2025)

1 week ago | flytrippers.com | Andrew D'Amours

To be very clear: of course, you can boycott the United States. Long live freedom! You should always go (or *not* go) wherever you want. And Trump is doing a lot of stupid things, of course!However, we must still be clear that being afraid to enter the United States… that’s really not a good reason not to go. As for the other reasons… that’s up to each responsible adult and has nothing to do with travel. But the fear of the border deserves to be debunked.
24-hour free cancellation rule for flights

1 week ago | flytrippers.com | Andrew D'Amours

There are different cancellation and change policy options offered when purchasing a plane ticket, and it makes sense: every traveler has different priorities (saving money or having flexibility). We have a very good overview of this in our ultimate guide on airplane ticket fare classes. But several major airlines have this 24-hour free cancellation rule that is really very useful and that I use very often myself. Here’s what you need to know about the 24-hour free cancellation rule for flights.
Reviews of the 17 airlines from my round-the-world trip (part 1)

1 week ago | flytrippers.com | Andrew D'Amours

I’ve already shared my reviews of my 15 Marriott Bonvoy hotels (and 3 hostels) from the trip. I’ll also soon share my reviews of the 20+ different VIP airport lounges easily accessible for free that I visited during the trip as well (I’ll briefly mention some of them below because they’re undeniably part of the experience at each airline’s hub airport). Here are my brief impressions of the 1st half of the 17 airlines (part 2 is coming next week).

Pakistan airspace ban for Indian airlines

2 weeks ago | flytrippers.com | Andrew D'Amours

Canada had its own political conflict with India recently, which even prevented us from visiting for a short time. This conflict doesn’t involve Canada at all, but several flights between here and India are still affected, unfortunately. Here are the details of the Pakistan airspace ban. What is the Pakistan airspace ban? It’s not new for an airspace ban to have a significant impact on the aviation world.
3 scenarios to show the return rate with bill payment services (taxes, rent, car payments, tuition, utilities, etc.)

2 weeks ago | flytrippers.com | Andrew D'Amours

Knowing how to do the math properly is literally one of the 6 most important things in the world of travel rewards. It’s vital!!! We can evidently never repeat this often enough. Even if you don’t like math, you really need to learn. It’s going to help you save so much money and points. So I’m taking advantage of the recent update to our guide on bill payment services (a must-read if you haven’t done so already) to take a closer look at these simple calculations. Here are the 3 scenarios.
