American Express is currently offering a transfer bonus to Asia Miles (Cathay Pacific’s loyalty program). Often overlooked, Asia Miles can provide fantastic value, particularly on select Oneworld partner redemptions. Great sweet spots opened up by this transfer bonus include 59k-point Cathay Pacific business class flights to Asia or 70k-point Qatar and Japan Airlines business class as far as you can fly.

Today, Bilt Rewards just added two new transfer partners: United MileagePlus and Cathay Pacific Asia Miles. These new transfer partners offer 1:1 transfers for your Bilt Rewards points and bring some nice redemption opportunities to the table. Here’s how they boost the Bilt Rewards program and how they can up your travel game.

Asia Miles recently did away with Choice and Tailored awards while adding a new Miles Plus Cash booking option. Cathay Pacific loyalists can use miles for any available seat on any Cathay Pacific or partner flight via a Miles Plus Cash booking. Does this spell trouble for Cathay’s beloved loyalty program?

Prior to January 1, 2020, Asia Miles used to expire after 36 months, regardless of loyalty or activity. With a new year comes a program update and new ways to keep those miles active, so you don’t need to worry about losing value anymore.

To celebrate its 20th anniversary, Cathay Pacific is offering a 20% discount on awards to select destinations in the U.S. and Europe from Hong Kong.

An increased signup bonus of up to 60,000 miles has been announced on the Cathay Pacific Visa Signature® card through June 30, 2018. The Cathay Pacific card is the only Asia Miles credit card available in the US and carries a $95 annual fee.
