Last seen in the summer of 2017, the Diners Club to British Airways
conversion bonus is back albeit it is lower this time. Last summer the
bonus was 50% and for this spring it is 30%. I personally took advantage
of the 50% bonus last year but will not move on this on as I am hoping
we’ll see a transfer bonus from Diners to Alaska soon.
Still if you are thinking of redeeming soon for travel on British
Airways or any of their oneworld partners this may be the time to
transfer.
This one is for those select few of us who have held onto to our Diners Club Mastercards
as the card isn’t technically available for new applications. Right now
through to the end of March any Diners Club cardholder that
transfers Club Rewards points to British Airways Executive Club will
receive a 30% bonus on those transfers. The regular transfer rate is
1,250 Club Rewards Points to 1,000 Avios so with this bonus that equates
to 1,300 Avios. That equates to 1.04 Avios per dollar spent on the card.
Nothing special and it’s not great like the 1.25 you can earn on everyday spend with The Platinum Card from American Express or the category bonuses of 2 Avios per dollar with The American Express Gold Rewards Card
or even potentially 3.14 Avios with The American Express Cobalt card but still better than the regular transfer rate. Remember you can use British Airways Executive Club to
fly to many destinations in the U.S. from Canada for between 15,000 and
25,000 Avios round trip (See here for details on that)

30% Bonus Avios when you convert Diners Club Club Rewards points to British Airways Executive Club. Full details Until Mar 31, 18
