Aegean Miles+Bonus launched an award sale for flights on flights operated by Aegean or Olympic Air. With the promotion, Miles+Bonus members receive a 20% discount for award bookings made by February 6, 2023. The offer applies to Aegean Airways and the Olympic Air network award flights.
Key Terms
- Book Aegean awards with a 20% discount.
- Promotion bookings must be made by February 6, 2023, 23:59 GR Time.
- The offer applies to flights operated by Aegean and the Olympic Air network.
- The promotion does not stack with any other offers.
Other Promotion Partners
You can also receive a discounted rate when you redeem your miles with select Aegean partners:
- Hellenic Duty-Free Shops.
- Attica.
- Marks & Spencer in Greece.
- Cellier.
- Gofas Jewelry.
- Coffee Island in Greece and Cyprus.
- Mastihashop.
- Balthazar bar restaurant.
- Varoulko Seaside.

At the Hellenic Duty-Free Shops, you receive a 20% discount. However, at the other retailers, the exchange rate and discount have been hardcoded in the transaction.
At some retailers, you can exchange your Aegean miles at a rate of 160 miles per 1 euro cent (US 1.08¢). At others, the rate is more expensive at 240 miles per 1 euro cent (US 1.08¢).
Using Your Aegean Miles+Bonus Miles
Aegean has a tiny footprint serving destinations primarily in Europe, the Middle East, and North Africa. The airline does not operate to the Americas, East Asia, or Oceania.
That being said, there are still some great options to book awards with this promotion, including:
- Economy domestic awards start from 4,000 miles (plus taxes and fees) with the promotion.
- Athens to London in business class is around 18,000 miles (plus taxes and fees) after the 20% award discount.
- Riyadh to Athens in business class is around 19,300 miles (plus taxes and fees) during this promotion.
You can work out the approximate cost of your award using the Aegean Airways award calculator tool. Then, you can discount the price by the 20% discount on the offer.
Boosting Your Aegean Mileage Balance
Unfortunately, Aegean does not partner with any major U.S. credit card point currencies. However, you still have the option to transfer Marriott Bonvoy points to Aegean miles to boost your balance if you are short a few miles for a redemption.
Marriott points transfer to Aegean at a ratio of 3:1, with a minimum transfer of 3,000 points. Keep in mind that you can still receive a 5,000 miles bonus when transferring 60,000 Marriott points to Aegean. Transferring 60,000 points would yield 25,000 miles instead of 20,000.
Although Marriott is a great transfer option, keep in mind the transfer is not instant or immediate. Typically, transfers from Marriott to Aegean take up to three days. Therefore, you will have to be very quick if you want to transfer Marriott points in time to take advantage of this promotion.
Our Take
Who doesn’t like award sales? Getting more value for your miles is always great news. It is worthwhile to check your travel plans and see if you can make this Aegean Miles+Bonus promotion work for you.
The only disappointment is that the deal strictly applies to flights on flights operated by Aegean or Olympic Air and not to partner awards.

Decent mile award rates but problem with MB transfer and no partner award options.
