Being stranded in the Maldives doesn’t sound so bad right? Wrong. After having a wonderful time at Le Meridien Maldives, I was ready to travel to my next destination. There’s just one problem. I couldn’t board my next flight. Apparently, it’s a fueling stop and it’s not an actual flight that passengers can board….

I’ve personally held Platinum, Diamond, and Diamond Select status and experienced the exact same perks. Regardless, in this article, you will learn how the Best Western program works and how to get…

The only part I don’t like is registering with Scotiabank Rewards. For some reason, it’s not letting me register online. Frustrating enough, I ended up having to call the call centre…
