Question about redeeming the points

I have 3780 points which is short for redeeming for airline miles (need 4000).

If I cash in for certificate, I can only redeem for the flexible rate which is the highest.

Any other way I can use the points? Thank you!

You can change points into miles for some airline loyalty programs: http://www.accorhotels.com/gb/leclub/burn-points.shtml

Thanks for the link, it seems all the airline require 4000 points.

For each of these airline companies, the minimum threshold is 4000 Le Club Accorhotels points per conversion, based on the following rate:
4000 Le Club Accorhotels points = 2000 airline miles.


For other partners, none of them is in US.

Did I miss something?

You can convert 3,000 points to Avios via Iberia.

You can always use the certificate to pay for the food (or other services) at the hotel.

You still have to stay at least one night to use a voucher.

These vouchers are accepted every day of the week
up until their expiration date, and may be used to pay for all or part of those services
(including at least one night) rendered at one of our 2,500 Accor hotels participating
in the Le Club Accorhotels program around the world
