Miles & Points Sale

Marriott has brought back another targeted points sale and in it it's offering Bonvoy members a bonus of up to 40% when they purchase points in the next six weeks. But just how good or bad is this latest offer.

IHG is currently running a targeted points sale in which its allowing select 3IHG One Rewards members to buy up to 500,000 points at a cost of just 0.5 cents per point. The sale runs into September, so while there's no immediate need to rush if you need to top up an account, don't wait too long and forget!

Hilton has launched yet another points sale and it looks like different Hilton Honors members are being targeted for different bonuses. 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, there's a good chance that it is.

Just 6 days after pulling the last discount that it offered on its currency, United Airlines is back with another promotion in which it's offering a bonus of up to 100% when members buy MileagePlus miles by the end of the month.

Virgin Atlantic's has brought back the best points sale that we've ever seen it run and that means that for the rest of this month, Virgin Atlantic Flying Club members can buy points from 0.89 pence each (UK accounts) or from 1.48 cents each (US accounts).

Flying Blue is running another mileage sale and depending on where you're based (or possibly how Flying Blue is targeting this), your deal may vary. Some accounts appear to be targeted for a 100% bonus while others are seeing a 50% discount on offer.

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.
