  Shangri La does not care enough to stop my Golden Circle points from expiring this year. Using them has been impossible with covid and it would be simple to extend thier shelf life as other brands have done.

    Shangri-La Group is now extending tier status and benefits for members of its loyalty programme Golden Circle around the world in light of the recent Covid-19 outbreak.

    With this extension, all Golden Circle Diamond and Jade members will be able to maintain their current tier status and benefits until December 31, 2021.

    The hotel group said the updated status validity will be reflected in members’ profiles “with immediate effect”.

      True- status is maintained but my points still expire at the end of the year despite being unable to use them due to the pandemic.

        They couldn’t care much nor bother to provide any response when I email them about the problem to use the points if they set to be expired by 31/12/2020.

  Thought they’d be more generous than 30% bonus at the current time.

  Arent both Norway and Denmark borders closed to UK residents? It seems a bit crazy to restart flights under those circumstances. Unless they know something we don’t

    Denmark is open, I think.

      I understood that Denmark is still closed to most people, unless they can prove that they have an essential reason from a fairly strict list? Sure I recently read they were closed until end of August for Brits.

      Noted the addition of ‘I think’! Pretty sure it’s still closed. VisitDenmark and the U.K. .gov sites both say it is – got flights booked in Aug and hoping EasyJet will cancel them so I’ve been following it fairly closely.

        Although saying that, LoyaltyLobby have just posted an article saying most EU countries will be allowed in from 27th June. So it’s anybody’s guess!

          That’s what I read in the paper this morning too.

          Rob which paper do you read ?

          I have the Guardian and Times on my phone.

      Denmark is closed to UK residents. It’s open to Nordic citizens and German citizens.

      Norway is closed to UK residents, It’s open to Nordic (except Swedish) citizens.

      For those allowed to visit there are specific conditions… you work, have a holiday home there, grandparents or in a relationship with a Dane.

      We are due to visit Norway in August hence I’ve been keeping an eye. Norway will confirm by 15 July the position for tourists this summer.

        Sorry, that should be 20 July for Norway’s decision.

  There’s also a 50% bonus when buying Avios from Iberia.

  Has Hyatt ever offered more than 30% bonus, I seem to recall 40% in the past, perhaps i’m just getting old!

  • Rob says:

    We see 40% occasionally – last one was November 2019.
