In this week’s Quick Hits episode of Revolutionizing Your Journey, host DeAndre Coke delivers a rapid roundup of the most essential travel news and deals you need to know right now. From a 50% discount on Thrifty Traveler Premium to a Clear membership price hike, quirky hotel promotions, and the end of an iconic round-the-world points redemption, this episode is packed with timely tips. DeAndre also highlights how travelers can stay connected to the community and where to take action quickly to unlock significant value. 

If you’re trying to maximize every dollar and point this season, this is one to catch.

 

Key takeaways: 

  • 50% Off Thrifty Traveler Premium: New subscribers can join for just $50 from June 4–9. Great for finding rare points and cash deals.
  • Clear Membership Price Hike: The annual fee is now $199. Still worth it if your card covers the cost—less so if you’re paying out-of-pocket.
  • Kimpton’s Secret Password Is Back: Say “Social Sent Me” at check-in for surprise perks like snacks, upgrades, or waived fees (through Aug 31).
  • ANA Round-the-World Ticket Ending: Book by June 24 to snag this legendary 105k-point deal with 12 segments and 8 stopovers.
