So far I’ve gotten a pretty solid ROI after earning 180K for myself and SO.
Redeemed 46,000 for a round trip NYC to Cabo, first class there economy flights back.
and then redeemed for two nights at The Cape a Thompson Hotel in Cabo, redeemed 38,000 Avios & $750 co pay for two nights in the Panoramic Suite (cash cost would have been about $1000/night, 2K total) I personally found most avios point redemptions provided a poor return. However, at retail prices I got about 3 cents per avios which is significantly better than the regular priced rooms, 42,000 avios for a $350 room , less than 1 can’t per point.
So from just my account, not even counting the other 90K avios I’m SOs account I got about this much value..
$1000 value RT to Cabo J/Y
$1250 value from avios and cash hotel redemption.
$2,250 from the $300 investment .. pretty solid promo for me! Hope it works out for everybody.
