Thumbs up MR USA: 40% transfer bonus to British Airways 12.15.2014 to 1.31.2015
I'm seeing a 40% bonus on BA at the moment, valid through 1/31/2015. Not sure if it's targeted or not but the bonus was only visible after I clicked on the British Airways icon on the Transfer Points page.

Logged in and saw this after clicking on the BA icon on the transfer points page.

Limited Time Offer
Get 40% more Avios when you transfer Membership Rewards® points to your British Airways Executive Club account by 1/31/2015.

Not sure if it's targeted or not. (US Platinum Cardholder)
