Turkish Airlines has announced its Valentine's Day sale for 2025. Miles & Smiles members can receive 50% miles back when booking award flights by February 16, 2025 for eligible travel between February 10 and February 23, 2025. These are very narrow booking and travel windows, but it's nevertheless a great deal.
Turkish Airlines is known for having very short promotions, such as the New Year's offer in 2023, giving 2,024 bonus miles for flights leaving only on December 31. This new promotion is similarly restrictive but with slightly longer booking and travel windows.
Here are the details of this Turkish Airlines Valentine's Day sale.
Turkish Airlines Valentine's Day 50% Off Award Sale
Miles & Smiles members can save 50% on award flights for Valentine's Day 2025. However, rather than saving 50% outright, members must book Turkish award flights at full price. Then, Turkish Airlines will refund 50% of the miles within 10 days of you completing the flight — making this essentially a buy-one-get-one-free award promotion.
To take advantage of this sale, book Turkish Airlines award flights with two passengers on the same reservations between February 4 and 16, 2025. Eligible travel dates are between February 10 and 23, 2025. This promotion is valid for one-way and round-trip travel on any Turkish Airlines-operated flights.
Turkish Airlines award flights start at 4,500 points, although that's for domestic flights within Turkey. Economy award flights from North America start at 40,000 points. As such, members can book two flights from the U.S. to Istanbul for 80,000 points and then get 40,000 points refunded through this promotion.
Or, you can splurge for business class. Two one-way tickets to Istanbul in the front of the plane will cost you 130,000 miles total. With this award rebate, you'd get 65,000 miles back — meaning you'd only pay 65k points for two business class tickets. That makes this an incredible deal — if you can both travel on short notice and find the award availability.

Final Thoughts
Each year, Turkish Airlines offers one or more promotions on award tickets. We've seen some fantastic deals, such as the current promotion, but booking and travel windows are normally quite short. If you want to get 50% points back with a Valentine's Day award flight, make sure to book between February 4 and February 16 and travel between February 10 and 23, 2025!
