New Travel Redemption Option

Looks like MyPoints is now offering another travel redemption option with a company called VacationsDirect.com --- MyPoints is offering Electronic Vouchers in $25 denominated amounts from $25-$100.

From a quick glimpse at VacationsDirect.com, they apprear to be a legit travel site/agency, so I wonder if Hotel bookings through them would qualify for hotel loyalty points, since most hotel loyalty programs these days make you book direct with the hotel chain to earn the points.

With that said, for those not interested in the current hotel giftcard options, or United Mileage Plus miles options from MyPoints, this brings about a new choice.
