Avianca Boosts ThankYou Transfer Bonus to 30% – 2 Days Only
On June 4th, I wrote to let you know that you could transfer your Citi ThankYou points to Avianca with a 25% bonus through July 5th.
For a *very* limited time, meaning through tomorrow, Friday June 28th at 12:59 PM GMT-6, they are giving you an extra 5% for a total of a 30% transfer bonus.
Using Avianca LifeMiles
Here’s an article I wrote on some of the best ways to redeem Avianca LifeMiles.
Do bear in mind the caveat that Avianca’s new (and more terrible than before) website will sometimes randomly error out and, when that happens, it can be mind-boggling frustrating to get the flights tickets – including getting a reservation made over the phone and needing to wait for a phone call from the one person who can process your credit card – to being asked to email Avianca which may, or may not, ever get a reply.
That said, when it works, they can afford a fantastic deal, especially in premium cabins where they do not pass along fuel surcharges.
What are your thoughts? Will you transfer?
Let me know here, on Twitter, or in the private MilesTalk Facebook group.
You can find credit cards that best match your spending habits and bonus categories at Your Best Credit Cards.
