Ignore the Qatar Airways Avios sale – there’s a better deal available

Over the weekend, Qatar Airways launched a new Avios sale in which it's offering a bonus of up to 40% on Avios purchases completer by the end of 1 February. One the face of things, this is offering a reasonable deal, but if you're prepared to buy Avios today, a better deal is available.

Hilton has launched its first major points sale of the year in which it's offering a mystery bonus. For me, this mystery bonus is the 100% bonus that seems to come around as frequently as our neighborhood cat, so while this may not be what you've been targeted for, the chances are that it is.

Deal ending: Buy World of Hyatt Points and save 25%

Hyatt has been running its current points sale since the beginning of September and now there are just hours to go before the sale ends. As Hyatt points sales go, this one isn't the best but it's also not too bad, and if it's used correctly it has the potential to save some World of Hyatt fans quite a bit of money.

Another Alaska Mileage Plan sale that you should probably avoid (50% bonus)

Alaska's Mileage Plan program has launched a new mileage sale in which it's offering members the chance to buy miles with a bonus of up to 50% thrown in. Sadly, not only is this no longer one of the best mileage sales that we see Alaska Airlines publish, but there's also at least one further reason why most people should probably be avoiding this sale.

Aer Lingus is running a flash Avios sale in which it's offering bonuses of up to 50% for Avios purchases made through 14 November (Monday). The price you'll pay per Avios will vary depending on how many Avios you buy and where your Aer Lingus Aer Club account is based but that doesn't take away from the fact that for some people, there could be a good deal here.

There’s a new Marriott Bonvoy points sale but you should almost certainly avoid it

Marriott has launched a new points sale that will run for most of what is left of this year but for a couple of reasons, most Bonvoy members should probably be keeping their credit cards in their pockets and ignoring Marriott's latest effort to part them from their money.

Ends today: Buy Marriott Bonvoy points from 0.83 cents each

This past seven days, Marriott has been running a pretty good points sale as part of its "Week of Wonders" promotion but, unfortunately, the sale (and the promotion week as a whole) ends today so you have just hours left to top up a Bonvoy account is the number work for you.

Excellent deal ending: Buy World of Hyatt points from just 1.68 cents each

Hyatt's current points sale has been running since late August and has been offering World of Hyatt members a great opportunity to top up their accounts at the cheapest rate that we usually see Hyatt offer. Unfortunately and as will all good things, this sale has to end and it's ending today so you have just hours left to lock in this deal if the numbers work for you.

Flash deal: Great Iberia Avios sale…for some

Iberia has brought back its popular Avios sale which we last saw back in June and while for some, this will represent a fantastic opportunity to top up an Avios balance, others will probably find it hard to access the best deal available thanks to an issue that first raised its head in the last sale and that still seems to be around.

Alaska Airlines has launched a new mileage sale in which it is offering targeted members bonuses of up to 50% when they purchase a minimum of 30,000 miles.

Get A 50% Bonus When You Buy Marriott Bonvoy Points

Marriott has brought back a similar points sale promotion to one that we saw around this time last year in which it's offering Bonvoy members a bonus of up to 50% on purchases made in the next 6 weeks. For some, this will be a promotion that's well worth considering while for others this is clearly a promotion to avoid.

Buy Virgin Atlantic Points with a 60% or 70% bonus (potentially a great deal)

Virgin Atlantic's has brought back the same points sale that we saw it running in December and for once, a lack of innovation is a good thing as this is one of the best deals that we've ever seen the airline offer. All Virgin Atlantic Flying Club members can buy points with a 60% bonus while Gold members are being offered a 70% bonus so, with points available from 0.89 pence each for UK accounts and from 1.60 cents each for US accounts, there's a lot of scope to book some great deals courtesy of points purchased in this sale.

United Airlines has launched a new mileage sale in which, once again, it's offering MileagePlus members the chance to buy miles with a bonus of up to 100%. This sale, however, looks a little bit more interesting than some of the other sales that United has published in recent months as the maximum number of miles available appears to be higher.

Get a 50% discount on United Airlines miles (ends Friday)

United MileagePlus has launched a new flash sale ahead of Black Friday in which it's offering a discount on the cost of miles rather than a bonus. The discount being offered is 50% and while this reduces the cost/mile to levels that may tempt quite a few people, you should think carefully about how many miles you'd like to buy before participating in this sale.

Alaska Airlines has launched a new mileage sale that runs through most of December and which is offering a solid bonus of up to 50%. Ostensibly this is a perfectly good sale, but while I'll provide you with all the details you need about it in the post below, be aware that I think that this is a sale that most people should be avoiding for at least the next 10 days.

GREAT DEAL: Virgin Atlantic launches its best-ever points sale

Virgin Atlantic has launched a new points sale and this is unquestionably the best points sale that we've ever seen the airline publish. As I'll show in this post, this sale allows flyers to book a number of fantastic Business Class and First Class awards at rates that I don't recall ever seeing before and that's exactly what the miles & points game is all about.

Flash sale: Buy Alaska Airlines Miles with a 50% bonus

Alaska Airlines is back with a new mileage sale and just as we saw back in March, this will be another short sale from the airline (this may be a new trend). This latest sale sees the airline carry on offering what was, pre-pandemic, its best-ever deal - a 50% bonus - and with more and more people now apparently comfortable with traveling once again, this may end up being the best deals we see going forward.

Alaska Airlines is offering a mystery bonus when you purchase miles

In the past 12 months, we've seen Alaska Airlines offer up a variety of mileage sales and on at least two occasions it has offered the very best deals we have ever seen that airline offer. Now the airline is back with a sale that runs through the middle of May and it's a sale that sees Mileage Plan members being targeted for mystery bonuses.

Avoid, Avoid, Avoid – Don’t Buy IHG Rewards Points In The Latest Sale

This is nothing more than a rehash of the article that I usually post whenever IHG Rewards comes up with a sale that offers anything but a 100% bonus, so it's going to be one of the shorter posts that I write this year. All I really want this post to achieve is to make newcomers to the miles & points hobby aware that the current IHG Rewards Club points sale isn't very good and to let them know that we're definitely going to see better sales than this one in months ahead.

You can now buy United Miles with an 85% bonus

United MileagePlus is currently selling miles with a bonus of up to 85% and an annual purchase limit of 175,000 miles. This isn't the best deal we're likely to see United offer before the end of the year (we've already seen a 100% bonus offer earlier this month) but as the math will show, there are definitely going to be times when miles purchased in this sale will save you money.

SALE: Get A 50% Bonus On Avios Purchases

British Airways has launched a new Avios sale in which it's offering its top bonus (50%) on all Avios purchased made through 11 April. Considering the uncertainty that's still surrounding travel in 2021 and considering the flexibility of Avios bookings, this may be a useful sale to use to top up an account.

Sale: Buy American Airlines Miles with a 40% discount

American Airlines has launched a new mileage sale in which it is offering a discount of 40% on the regular price of miles. There's nothing majorly complicated about this sale as for once, this is an AAdvantage sale in which it doesn't matter how many or how few miles you buy, the cost per miles doesn't vary.

ENDS TODAY: Buy Marriott Bonvoy Points At Best Ever Rate

Marriott has been running a flash sale this week in which it's offering a bonus of up to 60% on Bonvoy Points purchases. Historically speaking, this is the highest bonus we have ever seen Marriott offer (it matches the bonus offered back in May) and we now apparently have it on good authority that this will be the best offer we see during the Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales.

Radisson Rewards Black Friday Deal: Buy Points With A 100% Bonus

Radisson Rewards has launched a Black Friday points sale and, unsurprisingly, it's the best sale that the loyalty program usually publishes. Most points purchases made through 2 December will earn a 100% bonus and as that values Radisson's points at just 0.35 cents each and as Radisson has boosted the maximum number of points its members can buy in a year, this opens up the opportunity for significant savings at some of the hotelier's best properties.

Avoid The New American Airlines Mileage Sale – It’s Abysmal

American Airlines has now launched a new mileage sale for November and it's a sale that absolutely nobody should be participating in. Considering the levels at which we've seen AAdvantage Miles sold in the past (and not just during a pandemic), you would have to have taken leave of your senses before thinking that buying miles in this sale is a good idea.

British Airways has been running an Avios sale since the end of August but today is the last day to participate and to buy Avios with the best bonus British Airways generally offers.
