Travel loyalty program promotions and strategies

Overview

Travel loyalty programs have implemented various promotional offers for points and miles during late 2026.

In early September, hotel programs such as Hilton Honors and World of Hyatt offered bonuses and discounts on point purchases. During this period, experts recommended using transferable currencies from providers like Amex Membership Rewards and Chase Ultimate Rewards to maintain flexibility.

By October, the focus shifted toward airline loyalty programs offering tiered transfer bonuses. Etihad Guest introduced a promotion providing up to a 40% bonus on miles when transferring from partners like Accor Live Limitless and Revolut. Similarly, Qatar Privilege Club offered tiered bonuses of up to 35% for converting Max Miles via HeyMax through the end of the month.
