Finnair Plus has points sales several times per year and currently has up to a 40% bonus for buying points through December 23, 2019.
The sweet spot on Finnair’s award chart is the short-haul upgrades from Economy to Business class (Dubai and Tel Aviv are both considered short-haul) that are priced at 10,000 points (sometimes even these are discounted).
You can access Finnair’s page for buying points here.
Here’s the bonus schedule:
You can now buy up to 120,000 points (168,000 with bonus). The limit previously was 100,000.
And here’s the price if you buy the maximum:
The cost of a Finnair Plus point under this sale is 0.92 cents each. The price under the previous deal was 0.77 euro cents.
Conclusion
I would only buy Finnair Plus points if I were 100% sure I’d be able to use them for short-haul upgrades where they are excellent value compared to paid upgrade prices or paying for business class outright.
I would wait for a better bonus or discount offer to surface unless you need some Finnair Plus Points right now.
Here are the terms and conditions of this offer:
Transactions must be completed between 18 December (00:00:01 EEST) and 23 December (18:59:59 EEST), 2019 to receive the Finnair Plus Points bonus. Bonus Finnair Plus Points will be awarded to the recipient. All other Buy/Gift Finnair Plus Points terms and conditions apply.
