Jet Airways up to 50% discount on return business class for select international routes

When I wrote about Etihad's 2-for-1 promotion earlier today, I was only half-joking about Jet Airways following suit, as they have done quite consistently in the recent past, thanks to Jet being a member of Etihad Airways Partners. And they haven't disappointed, announcing a business class sale of up to 50% discount (in essence, a 2-for-1 offer), valid for return-trip bookings till 24 October 2015.


The discount is valid on flights to the following select destinations in Africa, Australia, Europe, the Gulf and Middle East:


The key Terms and Conditions are: 
  • Offer valid for two guests booked on the same booking reference (PNR) and traveling the entire journey together
  • Special fare is available from selected points in India to Europe, Australia, Africa, Gulf and the Middle East 
  • Valid on return flights operated by Jet Airways and Etihad Airways 
  • Offer not applicable on Jet Airways direct flights from Mumbai/ Delhi to Brussels, London, Paris, Dubai, Jeddah 
  • Date or flight change and refund will be permitted as per fare rules (Rs 7000 and Rs 12000 respectively)
  • Available for booking in P class only 
  • Jet Airways reserves the right at any time, without prior notice to add, alter, modify, change or vary all or any of these terms and conditions or to replace wholly or in part, the above offer by another offer, whether similar to above offer or not, or to withdraw it altogether

While I've not explored the fares in detail, I can tell that the discounts range from 10% to 50%. Also, there seem to be limited number of seats available on each flight, with the Premiere cabin being sold out on many of the days I tested. Nonetheless, this is worth checking out if you've got a trip planned and want to take another person along. The biggest bummer for me is that the promotion is valid only for bookings till Saturday, 24 October 2015.

Are you planning to make use of this promotion?

Free Marriott Silver status...

Image
I think in today's times, it helps to be an Accenture employee. I'm only talking from a miles and points perspective, of course!!! A few days back, I had written about complimentary Hilton HHonors Silver status (with upgrade to Gold in 4 stays) , which was intended for Accenture employees - not that employment was ever verified by Hilton. Now (and I'm not sure if it is just a case of following suit in the spirit of competition), Marriott is also offering complimentary Silver status for Accenture employees. Normally, Silver requires 10 qualifying stays. Here's the link to the sign up page . So, what does Silver with Marriott get you? You can see the benefits for Silver here , and the entire set of benefits for the Marriott Rewards program here , but to summarize the key ones: 20% bonus points free internet access at participating properties in Asia-Pacific late checkout (YMMV) weekend discount of 10% at specific brands / properties access to elite-only rewards some level

50% off at Marriott in Thailand, for one night

Image
Marriott is offering a 50% off for a single night, till 31 July 2014, in exchange for registering for / subscribing to their eNewsletter. I'm not sure what the connection is, but I think the fact that it is for a single night's stay may well be suggestive of promoting Thai tourism, if you know my meaning... But well...its there to be had. I know this isn't exactly an India-focussed deal, but I'm looking at another trip to BKK soon, and I think there could be others who might benefit from this. The 50% off is on the highest available rate. Bookings cannot be done online. Instead, it will have to be done by emailing bookmarriott@marriotthotels.com or by calling the hotel and quoting your cluster code (which is D58) and the voucher number (see steps below for getting the voucher). Do remember to carry a print of the voucher and present it upon check in. Participating hotels are: BANGKOK Renaissance Bangkok Ratchaprasong Hotel Bangkok Marriott Hotel Sukhumvit Marriott Exe
