Avianca has another bonus available on LifeMiles purchases, this time it’s up to a maximum of 155%. That brings the cost per mile down to 1.29 cents, which is just below our reasonable redemption value for LifeMiles of 1.3 cents each.
At this price, buying for a high-value redemption could make sense. That said, we did recently see LifeMiles institute a series of devaluations that made many redemptions more expensive. You should check out the details before hopping on a mileage purchase.
It’s worth noting that, like most LifeMiles sales, the promotion is tiered and you need to purchase at least 51,000 miles to get the 155% bonus if you’re targeted with that top end.
Keep in mind that these LifeMiles sales happen regularly, usually with a bonus between 140-170%. There’s no need to worry about missing out if you don’t have a redemption in mind right now. Don’t buy speculatively.

Best uses of Avianca LifeMiles
- Business class to Europe from 69-80K with no fuel surcharges. While the prices aren't Earth-shattering, what makes this particularly exciting is the lack of fuel surcharges. Surcharges for Lufthansa are often $700-1000, so this can be a huge savings. There are many examples of routes inexplicably pricing below the official award chart (Check out Avianca LifeMiles devalues, but with a twist and Avianca LifeMiles’ awesome mixed-cabin award pricing: First class for less).
- Business class South America from 35K. Avianca LifeMiles offers competitive Star Alliance pricing to both Northern and Southern South America with no fuel surcharges. Again, you can mix cabins on partner awards to save miles, which can be useful if you need a positioning flight. Flights on Avianca metal usually price out slightly higher than partners
- North America starting at 7.5K. Avianca LifeMiles offers one-ways on United within a single "zone" at excellent prices (the US is split into 3 zones). Within a single zone, pricing starts at 7.5K one-way in economy.
