Well, this sure has been an exciting week in the miles & points world. Marriott's takeover of Starwood was finalized with just a few days advance notice, but perhaps more significantly, reciprocal status matches and points transfers kicked in immediately. On top of that we've seen a lot of other great promotions this week, ranging from increased bonuses on purchased miles to updated credit card sign-up bonus.
On the travel front, I'm in the middle of a quick round the world trip, where I'm able to sample some new products that I'm quite excited about. So I'll keep it short, as I'm trying to get as much sightseeing done this weekend as possible.
