Citi's 50% Accor Bonus Hits 2 Cents Per ThankYou Point
Citi launched a 50% transfer bonus to Accor Live Limitless through July 18, offering 750 Accor points per 1,000 ThankYou points transferred instead of the usual 1,000:500 ratio. Accor's program is refreshingly simple: every 2,000 points gets you €40 off your hotel bill with no award charts or blackout dates. The bonus delivers roughly 2 cents per ThankYou point, which beats most other Citi transfer options when they're not running promotions, and works well if you have Accor stays planned and idle ThankYou points.

Copa Doubles Panama Stopover to 15 Days, No Extra Cost
Copa Airlines doubled their Panama stopover program from 7 to 15 days at no extra airfare cost. Book through their multi-city tab to break up a South America trip with 2 weeks exploring Panama before continuing to your final destination on the same ticket price. The math works if you're already flying Copa between continents and have time to spare, since you avoid paying for a separate ticket while exploring a destination with beaches, rainforests, and solid infrastructure.

United Expands Miles Pooling to All Star Alliance Partners
United made their miles pooling feature significantly more useful by removing the previous restriction that limited pooled miles to United flights only. Pooled miles now work for award bookings on United and all Star Alliance partners through United's website or app, with pool leaders able to invite up to 4 family members or friends and no limits on contributed miles. United remains the only major US carrier offering miles pooling to members of all ages, making it a solid advantage for family travel planning.
