The Points Tool You've Always Wanted

Bilt's November Rent Day promotion is the weakest we've seen in a while, as it doesn't include a traditional transfer bonus. Bilt members can receive up to a 100% bonus on gift card redemptions and up to $150 off hotel bookings through the Bilt Travel Portal. Gift card bonuses depend on Bilt status: Blue members get a 25% bonus, Silver 50%, Gold 75%, and Platinum 100%, bringing redemption values up to 1.4 cents per point for Platinum members. The hotel discount is available on eligible bookings made between October 28 and November 2 at 3 a.m. ET, with the discount amount depending on your Bilt status and booking total. The hotel offer cannot be combined with Bilt Cash or other credits.

JetBlue is offering 15% off flights, but they have to be booked today, October 28. Use promo code TREAT15 to book select nonstop Main and EvenMore fares by 11:59 p.m. ET tonight. The discount applies to eligible travel from November 2, 2026 through February 10, 2027, excluding Fridays, Sundays, and several holiday blackout periods. The promo applies only to the pre-tax cash fare and cannot be used on award flights, Cash + Points bookings, Mint, BlueFirst, transatlantic flights, or connecting itineraries. You can view the offer here.

Accor has various subscriptions that offer elite night credits and discounted stays at Accor properties. It is currently running a special offering bonus points that can effectively offset the first-year cost of two of its subscription services: ALL Accor+ Voyager and ALL Accor+ ibis. If you activate the offer and book by November 20, 2026, then complete an eligible stay by January 22, 2027, you can earn 9,000 Accor points with Voyager or 5,000 points with ibis. Those bonuses are worth €180 and €100 respectively, roughly matching the €179 Voyager and €99 ibis annual subscription fees. Voyager also includes 20 elite night credits each year and 15% off stays at more than 30 Accor brands, while ibis includes 10 elite night credits and 15% off stays at ibis, ibis Styles, and ibis budget hotels. Existing subscribers appear to be eligible as well, and only the first qualifying stay after registration earns the bonus.

JetBlue has announced significant changes to its TrueBlue loyalty program and Mosaic elite status benefits for 2027. Many of the changes negatively affect lower-tier members, so if you're planning to travel or spend your way to lower-tier Mosaic status, you should weigh the benefits against these changes. Starting in 2027, Perks You Pick benefits earned at 10, 20, 30, and 40 Tiles will become much less valuable. Options such as priority boarding and free alcoholic drinks will be limited to one-time use rather than applying to every flight, while the bonus points option drops from 5,000 to 1,000 points. Mosaic 1 and 2 members will also see reductions in their Perks You Pick options, including a decrease from 15,000 to 10,000 bonus points and from 20 to 10 bonus Tiles. Higher-tier Mosaic 3 and 4 members will receive some enhanced benefits, including larger points bonuses and new options for gifting status. On the positive side, Mosaic members will become eligible for complimentary upgrades to JetBlue's new BlueFirst cabin when it launches in December 2027, although upgrades will only begin clearing 60 minutes before departure.
