LifeMiles cuts biz rates on SWISS, United, EVA - book now before they yo-yo back.

Avianca LifeMiles has quietly lowered business class award rates on key Star Alliance partners, including SWISS, United, and EVA Air. SWISS JFK-Zurich drops to just 54,010 miles each way, while United Polaris from Denver to London is down to 78,500 miles. EVA Air Los Angeles-Taipei now costs 83,200 miles, down from 90,000-plus. LifeMiles is notorious for yo-yoing rates, so this window could close at any moment without warning.

Trip.com deal: 17.5% cashback is solid, but past rates hit 36.5%.

Capital One Shopping and Offers are running a deal on Trip.com today (September 9) with up to 17.5% cashback or 17X miles on hotel, lodging, and car rental bookings. Flights earn 3.5%/3X, and other categories like tours or transfers earn 2.5%/2X. Rates are targeted, so you may see higher offers. The cashback from Capital One Shopping is redeemable only for gift cards, not cash. This is a decent return, but note that past deals (like in March) offered up to 36.5% for hotels, so this is a step down. The deal expires today.

Log into your Capital One Shopping and Capital One Offers accounts, check your targeted rates for Trip.com, and book any eligible travel before the September 9 deadline.

Don't book on TopCashback's 16% Klook rate until you read the fine print.

TopCashback has boosted rates across IHG, Radisson, Viator, GetYourGuide, Klook, Expedia and more, but the 'up to' qualifiers change the deal. Viator's 15% is only for new customers, while existing customers earn 10%. Expedia's 10% applies only to new customers booking activities, with existing customers seeing 5%-8% for other travel. IHG's 12% is limited to Iberostar, though all IHG brands earn 10%. No expiry is listed, so compare rates on Cashback Monitor or Savewise before committing.

Check the 'up to' terms on each rate, then compare on Cashback Monitor before booking.
