They cover the latest developments in fuel surcharges across the industry, in addition to airlines that have increased baggage fees.
Several new developments in the world of miles, points, and travel include Air Canada taking delivery of its first A321XLR, the new Tangerine Rewards World Elite Mastercard, Hawaiian Airlines joining oneworld, an Air France Canadian bonus points promotion, Flying Blue status match opportunities, Hyatt award category changes, and the new United MileagePlus Neo World Elite Mastercard.
