I’ve seen a lot of other travel/miles/points bloggers making predictions or wishlists for 2017 so why not? Mine is from the point of view of a birder/eco-traveler so mine are pretty different.
- LATAM – I wish that you would introduce one-way awards at half the price of a round trip. Your other South American competitors have them so get with the program!
- COPA – I wish that you would join Chase Ultimate Rewards or Citi TYP to make it easier to get your miles.
- AVIANCA – Same as COPA, who will be the first? C’mon guys, COMPETE!
- AUSSIE AMEX – How about adding more transfer partners, preferably in South America but I’ll take the AA or UA.
- VENEZUELA – Get your economic act together, You have too good a birdlist so take a page from Colombia, restore law and order so we can start visiting again.
- ALL AIRLINES APPLICABLE – DItch the fuel surcharges, especially on award tickets!
- AA & UA – Offer awards in Premium Economy for your partners that have this cabin.
- QANTAS – Seriously, NO awards in J on SYD-SCL for the whole year? Unacceptable!
- GARUDA – Why don’t you have an Aussie credit card partner yet? And while you are at it, offer easy online redemptions.
- COLES & WOOLWORTHS (AUSTRALIA) – Keep the bonus promos coming!
