Cheap Flights To Mexico And Europe, Free $30 At Office Depot And Royal Caribbean Changes Direction

Here’s what I’m reading about in the world of miles and points:

Cheap Flights of the Day: 

Yes, I know it’s Frontier, and they can be stingy with fees. But, their current sale is valid for departures from Monday to Saturday, has one-way fares in the US as low as $39 to a lot of destinations (with an extra 30% off when you use promo code SAVE30), and a 20% discount on flights to Mexico.

Meanwhile, JetBlue has fares just over $200 to the Caribbean.  And, there are still tickets to China for less than $500.

And, WOW Air is at it again with ultra-low fares to Europe.  Just be careful of the fees.

In Case You Missed It: 

The new Ritz-Carlton Visa offer is worth considering for many folks.  There’s no personal upside for me if you apply, it’s just a really good offer.

Royal Caribbean made a painful announcement for loyalty members recently, announcing they would eliminate the popular balcony discount many of their elite members are eligible for.  After a huge uproar, they seem to have backed down for now.  We enjoy cruising, even though we haven’t gone on one in quite some time.  Elite status with the cruise lines is generally considered “lifetime” status, once you achieve a level it doesn’t expire.  The benefits can be very rewarding for frequent cruisers.
