Four Days Only: LifeMiles Singles Day Promotion With Up To 140% Bonus For Buying Miles Until November 12th, 2018

Avianca LifeMiles has just published a new Singles Day promotion with up to 140% bonus for purchasing miles during the next four days until November 12th, 2018.

LifeMiles members can purchase up to 200,000 miles every calendar year and some members may have higher targeted offers.

You can access this offer on Avianca’s website here.

Note that the bonus amount is dependent on the number of LifeMiles you intent to purchase and the account had to be open at the time the promotion started (you can not open brand new accounts to take advantage of active promotions). The bonus ranges from 115% for the first 50k purchased up to 140%.

This is the bonus schedule for this current promotion:

Keep in mind you can get the 40% bonus already when you purchase 101,000 Lifemiles and above so there is no need to purchase the full 200k to max out the bonus.

The price of a ‘LifeMile’ (one) purchased at the 40% bonus level is 1.37 cents each which is rather low. You’re also always able to supplement 1000 LifeMiles for $15 cash (dynamic pricing) through the cash&points redemption option an with an additional 15% through this promotion.

Conclusion

LifeMiles used to be very good award option before the award charts were devalued few times. You can still can find LifeMiles useful to utilize for certain routings.

I would not purchase them (especially in large quantities) unless you have clear plan to use them in the near future and award availability exists using LifeMiles (and the award booking using their engine doesn’t “error out” at the end which you unfortunately never know until it actually happens).

These are the Terms&Conditions of this Single Day promotion:
