Transfer Hotel Points To Avianca Lifemiles And Get A 25% Transfer Bonus

Miles transferred from hotel programs to Avianca Lifemiles from 4/2-5/6 will earn a 25% bonus.

The bonus stacks with Starwood’s standard 25% bonus, so increments of 20K Starpoints will transfer to 31,250 Lifemiles.

90K Starpoints also can transfer into 270K Marriott points which can normally be transferred into 85K Lifemiles plus 7 nights in a Marriott hotel. With this bonus it would transfer into 106,250 Lifemiles plus 7 nights in a Marriott hotel. Read more about this option in this post.

Lifemiles has a good Star Alliance award chart with no fuel surcharges. They even have an excellent award chart for intra-USA awards. For example a flight within a zone as defined in their Star Alliance chart like NYC-Cleveland, Houston-Fort Lauderdale, or Denver-Los Angeles is just 7.5K miles in coach or 15K miles in business class each way. There is a $25 award redemption fee, but there are no close-in fees.

However Lifemiles is also known for changing award charts without warning, having a useless and incompetent call center, blocking some Lufthansa First Class awards, and they just added a new requirement that you earn or purchase miles every 12 months to keep your miles alive. In other words, I wouldn’t speculatively transfer points unless you have a redemption in mind.

Will you transfer hotel points to Lifemiles?
