Five Weeks, 23 Travel Partners - Daily Getaways Are Back and They Are Good…Very Good!
Expiration Date – May 8, 2015
The US Travel Association (a trade group that promotes travel to and within the United States) has a fantastic Daily Getaways program each year enabling the purchase of hotel rewards points, hotel stays, car rental savings and more at fantastic discounts. Every weekday for five weeks, beginning March 23 2015, you will have the opportunity to purchase a limited number of travel getaway packages at greatly discounted prices. This promotion will end May 8, 2015.
We are a big fan of the daily specials to purchase hotel points. They tend to go very quickly (some in a matter of minutes). So, if you are interested, plan to be at your computer ready to buy right at 1:00 p.m. ET on the day of the sale. And also elect to receive daily email reminders so you won’t forget! The beauty of these offers is that you can buy during the daily sale, but have the flexibility to use your purchase well into the future (expiration terms vary by program).
In the examples below we provide the IHG, Hilton and Hyatt Daily Getaway sales being conducted the first few weeks of the promotion. All three of these offers should save you a significant amount of money on hotel stays as long as you are smart about how you redeem. We’ll tell you how below.
In all three hotel rewards point offers we reference below, you are buying the hotel rewards points for about half what you’d normally pay if you bought them directly through the hotel rewards program websites. The Daily Getaway prices are equal to or below the price at which TRVLVIP suggests you should feel good about buying points! See our great Tip to determine how we value rewards points and miles.
