100 Free Virgin Atlantic When You Join PointsHound + 1,000 Bonus Miles For Booking Your First Hotel

Please keep in mind there is a similar offer that is 100 miles on sign up and 2,000 miles after first booking which is for AAdvantage, which I think is much better than this offer.

Our Verdict

There are quite a few hotel booking websites that now offer you airline miles instead of regular hotel points. Most people find the airline miles more valuable. There are several downsides to using these sites are:

  • You usually won’t earn elite night stay credits
  • You usually won’t have your status with that hotel recognized (e.g if your a platinum they might not give you the benefits that includes)
  • The rates usually aren’t the lowest available and if they have a best rate guarantee it’s not very useful due to the fine print

I’ve done a detailed review of RocketMiles before and will do something similar for PointsHound in the future (this review is now live, you can also see my review for Kaligo here). My suggestion? If you don’t care for hotel loyalty programs, check out the prices these sites offer compared to the best rate you can find elsewhere. I’ve yet to find something for myself where it has really made sense. Kaligo is another site that also offers this same functionality.
