Avios to Radisson: 3:5 swap values your miles at under a third of a cent.

The two-way conversion between Finnair Plus and Radisson Rewards is a one-way street in practice. Moving 3 Avios to 5 Radisson points prices each Avios below one-third of a US cent, while Radisson awards are fully dynamic and worth about 0.2 cents per point. The reverse direction, 10 Radisson points to 1 Avios, can borderline work if you have no use for hotel points and want to route into BA or Qatar via Avios. The tier match is the real play: Silver, Gold, and Platinum map to Radisson Premium, while Lumo gets VIP, though Lumo is overkill for what you get.

the play

Link your Finnair Plus and Radisson Rewards accounts on the Finnair Shop portal and claim the tier match, but skip the Avios-to-Radisson conversion unless you have no other use for the miles.

This drop was reframed from a real reader question asked around the web. Written with the assistance of a language model in the voice of Vanessa Bloome.

Double points on Hyatt dining in APAC — no registration required.

World of Hyatt's 'ComforTable' promo runs August 1 to September 30 across Asia Pacific, earning double points on eligible restaurant spend up to 30,000 bonus points. No sign-up needed — accounts are auto-enrolled. A roughly $50 dinner at a Hyatt property netted 600 points, though taxes, service charges, and alcohol typically don't count. The yield beats what you'd earn on the room rate itself.

the play

Dine at a Hyatt restaurant in Asia Pacific before September 30, pay separately from your room, and watch the double points post instantly.

Turo rents Avios: 1x base earn, but status tiers up to 4x.

Avios has landed on Turo, the Airbnb for cars, but only through Qatar Airways Privilege Club. No British Airways accounts accepted at checkout. The earn rates scale with your status: Burgundy gets 1 Avios per local currency unit, Silver 2, Gold 3, Platinum 4, with no deductions for taxes or fees. Points land in Qatar and can be shifted instantly and free to BA. For a base-level renter, 1x is thin; the value lives in the status multiplier.

the play

Open a free Qatar Airways Privilege Club account if you don't have one, link it to Turo, and earn Avios on the full rental value before transferring to British Airways.
