Southwest has a promotion through May 15^th that gets you double points AND double tier qualifying points. I like this promo—it’s easy and a good deal. All you have to do is register here, then travel anywhere in the country by the May 15^th end date. Love things that are this simple! It’s also a great way to get to that next Rapid Rewards tier since Southwest points add up so quickly.

This reminds me—for the points newbies, pay attention to the emails that come from your loyalty programs. They often have information about bonus offers that are very simple to qualify for!

I have finally taken the plunge and started a Road Warriorette Facebook page. Check it out when you have a chance!

I recently heard about a promotion Hyatt is doing this spring. It’s already underway, but goes until the end of April. It’s a pretty good deal, and an even better deal if you have a Hyatt credit card. I don’t typically stay at Hyatt properties, but this makes me want to rethink that… Just thought some of you may be interested!
