Alaska Airlines is making a painful cut to its Saver fare earning, while also hiking partner award booking fees by 60%, though one card can save you from that hit. A limited-time 25% transfer bonus on Amex Membership Rewards to Air France KLM Flying Blue is live through June 30, making now a prime moment for Europe trip planners to make their move. The lounge wars are heating up with Nashville International putting out a massive bid, a second Delta One Lounge coming to LAX, and a stunning new Alaska Lounge now open in Portland. Rounding things out, Virgin Atlantic has completed free Starlink Wi-Fi across its entire A350 fleet, and there are several juicy targeted Amex Offers plus a Wyndham summer promo worth registering for now.
