With respect, not knocking any offer per se, just saying that the past couple of years i´ve seen these offers they have been rather restrictive in regard to both destination and dates. Like the iberiacards offers for 50% off avios, you need to be flexible in your time off and you know yourself that sometimes the list of destinations is limited.
My comment on the 90k avios promo is related to their I.T. processing as i´m waiting for my account correction....if it ever comes.
How would someone who ....had 40k avios balance , got 90k avios with junes promo , spent 85k on J returns in July 2018 then has 90k removed on 02/12, make the most of this offer ?
