$250 Annual Travel Credits
Through the NBC Smart Travellers Program, each calendar year, with the National Bank’s World Elite Mastercard®, you can get up to a $250 refund on travel expenses.
| Expenses | Credit |
| Airport parking | $100 |
| Baggage fees | $100 |
| Seat selection | $50 |
These credits must be used between January 1 and December 31 of each year. If they are not used, they are lost.
You get these travel credits as soon as you apply for the National Bank’s World Elite Mastercard®. This is in addition to the other benefits of the card, including the welcome bonus.
