Scene+ points on Expedia
To the point Are you a member of the Scene+ loyalty program? Here's how to collect and redeem your points on Travel Scene+ by Expedia website.

The Scene+ loyalty program allows you to earn 3 points per dollar on your Expedia bookings, and redeem your Scene+ points to reduce the cost of your reservation.

In this way, you can earn and redeem Scene+ points on the following products offered by Expedia:

  • Flights
  • Hotels
  • Rental cars
  • Excursions and activities

To earn or redeem Scene+ points on your Expedia bookings, you need to visit the Scene+ Travel by Expedia website. You won’t earn the 3 points/dollar with your reservations on the regular Expedia.ca website, but you can still redeem your Scene+ points for an account credit after paying.

Here’s how to earn and redeem Scene+ points with Expedia.

Book and Earn Scene+ Points on Expedia

Go to the Scene+ program page dedicated to Scene+ Travel developed by Expedia and log in.

Once logged into your Scene+ account, click on “Book Scene+ Travel now”.
