Once again we bring you the latest set Miles & More “Meilenschnaeppchen”
discounted
mileage awards! This month we only see offers for Lufthansa flights out of Montreal for travel between January 1 and February 15, 2016 with booking completed by September 30th.
You can redeem Miles & More miles for round trip tickets from Montreal to Europe for only 55,000
miles in Business Class. This is nearly a 48% discount off the
normal Business Class award ticket price of 105,000 miles. The other option is a full 50% discount on economy
class which means an award ticket price of only 30,000 miles. Granted
all
these tickets will also have fuel surcharges but this is still a pretty
good deal when you look at it as a whole in terms of miles+cash outlay.
The crazy thing is that you can actually get the round trip Economy Class ticket for
only $5,000 in credit card spend (and a $120 annual fee). How so? As we
usually mention in this post you can boost your Miles & More account
with the Starwood Preferred Guest Credit Card from American Express.
If you read our blog regularly you’ll know that right now the card
comes with a 20,000 Starpoint sign up bonus. When you convert those
20,000 Starpoints to Miles & More SPG will award you an additional
5,000 miles. Which gives you 25,000 miles but if you spend $5,000 on the
card you’ll have 25,000 Starpoints and the 5,000 Miles bonus giving you
the 30,000 miles required for this flight. Of course fuel surcharges
and taxes are extra.
Simply book the offers seen here by September 30th.
