Don’t forget to take advantage of the 50% bonus when you transfer from American Express Membership Rewards (MR) points to British Airways (BA) Avios points. The offer is good through May 31st (2 more days) only!
When considering whether to give up the precious MR points for the BA Avios points, take into consideration the following:
1) The surcharges like fuel charges on BA reward flights are notorisouly high. So make sure you do a price comparison among other airlines on the same route, and payment vs. rewards points before proceeding.
2) Having said that, we used BA points to book LAN when we traveled in South America all the time. No complaints on cost there!
3) If you already have an itinerary in mind that involved BA, this limited time offer may make sense for you.
To take advantage of this offer, just log into your American Express Account. Click Rewards on top navigation bar, then Use Points, then Travel tab. The BA offer is highlighted there. And best of all, the transfer is almost real-time!
