Check your airline, hotel and credit card loyalty accounts! This weekend, there are a bunch of important deadlines to know about if you’re a frequent traveler.
We often talk about how Jan. 1 is the “big reset” when it comes to elite status and frequent traveler perks, but the end of January is almost as significant.
We have key travel tips for Marriott Bonvoy, Delta SkyMiles and American Express loyalists — and a big policy change at Capital One to know about.
If you earned Marriott Bonvoy status and like the sound of hotel suite upgrades, you may be eligible to earn five of them (or to opt for a different perk). The deadline to make your selection is Sunday, so make sure you choose your elite benefits.
An even tighter deadline for certain Delta SkyMiles elite members who get to choose their Medallion Choice Benefits — ranging from a Sky Club membership to global upgrades or travel vouchers for future flights — is looming.
Also, this prime Delta Air Lines perk is use-it-or-lose-it come Jan. 31, so if you’re hoping to score a spot in a premium seat, don’t delay!
Besides these to-do items, you’ll want to keep in mind a key policy change that’s about to take effect: Capital One’s lounge access crackdown starts this weekend. We’ve laid out how the entry rules are changing and what it will mean for you (and your guests) come Sunday.
