Alaska Airlines bought Virgin America last year. In January, we saw the two companies merge and Virgin America award space started showing up on alaskaair.com.

Each loyalty program, Alaska Mileage Plan and Virgin America Elevate, has their own co-branded credit card issued by separate banks.

After enough data points and confirmation from a reliable source, Doctor of Credit has outlined a new rule to follow when applying for Bank of America credit cards.

You can now see Singapore Airlines award space on united.com, which means you can book Singapore award space on united.com. This was not the case as of a few days ago.

Singapore doesn't really release premium cabin award space to its Star Alliance partners, so you won't see much Singapore Business and First Class on United's website.

I heard about Kiwi.com from a friend, dry on the miles front, who was traveling in Europe this past summer and wanted to find the cheapest cash option to get him back home to the United States. Kiwi.com is an online travel agency with a fare aggregator and metasearch engine that used to go by Skypicker.com until the company re-branded under the name Kiwi in 2016. And lots of people are talking about it.

But there are tons of aggregators and metasearch engines for travel these days.

A few days ago I wrote about the award chart Singapore Krisflyer just published for flying their newest partner Alaska Airlines.

I noted that within Singapore's list of conditions for the chart is a confusing line prohibiting "transfers"...

...which leads one to believe that awards will price per segment. It’s not totally clear, however, that a transfer and a connection (i.e. layover) are the same thing--most people don't call layovers or connections transfers. There are prices on the award chart that seem just a little too cheap if "transfers" (layovers) were indeed permitted, though.

Singapore Airlines has published an award chart for flying their newest partner Alaska Airlines, and there are a lot of excitingly low prices. This is especially exciting as Singapore miles are one of the easiest to collect.
