Points and deals

Points transfers and deals

Live transfer bonuses with their deadlines, the travel deals we could date and source, and an honest list of the ones we could not stand behind.

Read this first. Transfer bonuses below are drawn from the Nov 9, 2026 merged research report (six independent trackers cross-checked). Most bank transfer screens are login-gated, so terms are corroborated across reports rather than verified on the bank's own page unless noted. Confirm the bonus on your own transfer screen before moving anything. Transfers cannot be reversed.

Transfer bonuses reported as live on November 9, 2026.
From	To	Bonus	Ratio	Deadline	Notes
Citi ThankYou	Cathay Pacific Asia Miles	10%	1,000 → 1,100	14 November 2026, 11:59pm ET	Window ran from 25 October. The ratio holds for Strata Elite, Strata Premier and Prestige cards. Other Citi cards get less.
Rove Miles	JetBlue TrueBlue	20%	1,000 → 1,200	14 November 2026	Rove is a travel platform rather than a bank.
Citi ThankYou	Turkish Airlines Miles&Smiles	40%	1,000 → 1,400	30 November 2026, 23:59 Türkiye time	Cap of 50,000 bonus miles per member. Bonus posts after the campaign ends. Miles&Smiles members only.
Capital One Miles	Virgin Atlantic Flying Club and Virgin Red	30%	1,000 → 1,300	20 November 2026, 11:59pm ET	Announced 21 October. Trackers disagree on whether transfers move in increments of 1,000 or 100.
Amex Membership Rewards	Virgin Atlantic Flying Club	30%	1,000 → 1,300	30 November 2026	US Membership Rewards program. Requires Virgin Atlantic Flying Club enrollment.
Capital One Miles	Air France-KLM Flying Blue	20%	1,000 → 1,200	30 November 2026	Appeared 1 November. Stacks with Flying Blue's November Promo Rewards award sale.
Chase Ultimate Rewards	British Airways, Iberia and Aer Lingus (Avios)	30%	1,000 → 1,300	1 December 2026, 11:59pm ET	Started 1 November. Usually instant. Avios pool across household accounts.
Capital One Miles	Copa ConnectMiles	30%	1,000 → 975 (base ratio 1,000 → 750)	1 December 2026	Copa's base ratio from Capital One is 1,000:750, not 1:1 — the bonus doesn't fully offset that. Citi premium cards transfer to Copa at 1:1.
Chase Ultimate Rewards	IHG One Rewards	80%	1,000 → 1,800	3 December 2026, 11:59pm ET	The biggest bonus on paper. Sources disagree on whether Chase or IHG applies it. IHG points are generally worth less per point than airline miles, so this suits topping up a specific award rather than speculative transfers.
Chase Ultimate Rewards	Wyndham Rewards	30%	1,000 → 1,300	3 December 2026, 11:59pm ET	Wyndham reportedly posts the bonus within seven days.
Amex Membership Rewards	Marriott Bonvoy	35%	1,000 → 1,350	10 December 2026	Announced 20 October. Can take up to about 48 hours. One tracker put the effective value at roughly 1.26 cents per Amex point, below that tracker's 2.04 cent average for Amex redemptions.
