For Travel

Travel Scene+ by Expedia

One of the best ways to use your Scene+ points is to book travel through Expedia’s Travel Scene+ portal. You can redeem your points to partially or fully cover the cost of your flights, hotels, car rentals, or even activities at your destination.

You can apply points at the rate of 1,000 points for a $10 discount. Check out our step-by-step tutorial to learn all about how to redeem your Scene+ points:

Applying Points to Travel Expenses

In addition to the Scene+ travel portal, you have the option of applying your points directly to travel expenses already paid for with your Scotiabank credit card. This allows you to reduce the cost of any aspect of your getaway, such as accommodations (including Airbnb), airfare, car rentals, cruises, all-inclusives, and much more.
