Avianca LifeMiles 115% Miles Transfer Bonus Between Accounts Until August 31, 2022

Avianca LifeMiles has brought back a transfer points promotion to move miles between accounts (at a fee), with members getting a 115% bonus when transferring miles until August 31, 2022.

LifeMiles has had similar promotions previously with 110% to 125% variable bonuses.

You can access the current promotion on the LifeMiles website here.

Remember that this is nothing but essentially buying miles with the added benefit of consolidating accounts.

The miles you transfer aren’t free – somehow, you collected or purchased them before – so that could potentially influence people’s thinking when evaluating if this is a great deal or not.

The price of a newly minted mile under this offer is 1.3 US cents each ($15/1,150)

You can always purchase miles through the Miles&Cash option during the redemption process at the rate of 1.5 cents per mile (depending on how many miles you buy – the prices vary based on the amount).

Conclusion

This transfer bonus makes it easier to consolidate miles from family accounts for one and keep them from not expiring. I consolidated miles with a friend last year when they were about to turn to dust.
