Travelocity Credit Card Promises Easier Point Redemption
Online travel site Travelocity has launched the Travelocity
Rewards MasterCard, a rewards point credit card that it says
offers easier redemptions than other travel credit cards. Cardholders
receive double points on purchases at Travelocity and one point
per dollar for purchases elsewhere. Points can be used for either
free tickets or for direct cash discounts on flights.
Points
can be redeemed online for travel on any airline, hotel, car
rental company, or travel package available on Travelocity at
any time, so no blackout dates or restrictions apply. In addition,
Travelocity promises an easier redemption process, requesting
any point redemptions within the general reservation process
(similar to using a gift certificate) instead of requiring a
special phone call or other process for redemptions.
Customers
canb start redeeming at the 5,000-point level, with 5,000 points
equalling a $50 discount. Discounts get higher as more points
are redeemed, including:
- 20,000
points = A free flight worth up to $400, or $400 off travel
package, hotel stays or car rentals
- 15,000
points = $200 credit
- 12,500
points = $150 credit
- 7,500
points = $100 credit
The Travelocity
Rewards MasterCard is issued by Barclays Bank Delaware (formerly
Juniper Bank).
