Citi has announced a 25% transfer bonus of ThankYou Rewards to Avianca LifeMiles. Through December 12, 2018, you will receive 1,250 LifeMiles for every 1,000 Citi ThankYou Points you transfer.
Key Terms
- Promotion is valid through December 12, 2018, 11:59 pm ET
- Receive a 25% bonus on the transfer of Citi ThankYou points to LifeMiles, effectively 1,250 LifeMiles for every 1,000 Citi ThankYou points
Is It Worth It?
If you are looking to top up your LifeMiles balance for a redemption, then this transfer bonus is a great option. Remember you can also transfer American Express Membership Rewards to Avianca LifeMiles, and you will soon be able to transfer Capital One Miles to LifeMiles.
If you are looking to build up your LifeMiles balance and have a low or a zero balance of miles, you may want to hold off. LifeMiles launches regular promotions offering a very generous bonus on the purchase of miles. We have regularly seen bonuses as high as 125% and occasionally an exceptional bonus of 145%. To build up a large balance of LifeMiles, you are better served taking advantage of one of the purchase promotions.
Our Take
Avianca LifeMiles is one of the lesser known frequent flyer programs, but one that is rapidly establishing a reputation as a solid player, with plenty of value and some excellent sweet spots. If you have a LifeMiles redemption in mind, then this promotion is an excellent option; however, if you are looking to build up a balance, you are better off holding fire until a purchase bonus comes along.

Good promo for some but not for me.
Thanks for letting me know about this bonus.
I do not think that I do the transfer. I would rather buy the miles through those points sales.
this is a nice bonus
Does anyone have experience with life miles? Good customer service?
Customer service is not the best. Be prepared for some frustrating conversations if you need to call to book/change an award.
Thanks for asking, Tim… and for answering, Jess! Customer service is absolutely something to weigh when investing time and money in a loyalty program.
Thanks for keeping us updated. With bonus offers from my Sears MasterCard (plus monthly bank account point I have a load of Thank You points.
I love it when ThankYou points offer promomtions like these. The trick is having the enough spare points around to take advantage of these random offers. I always end up transferring them before an offer pops up.
Thanks for the info. Remember when it cost 12,500 lifemiles from continental US to Guam via Japan?
wow. 12.5k? really?
Sweet bonus for some.
This one might actually be worth it for me.
Thanks for sharing
the more i hear about the Avianca LifeMiles program, the more i am impressed
