American Express has launched one of its most valuable transfer bonuses of the year, offering a 30% bonus when you transfer Membership Rewards points to three popular Avios programs.
You can now get 1,300 Avios for every 1,000 Membership Rewards points when transferring to British Airways Club, Iberia Plus, or Aer Lingus AerClub through July 15, 2025.
Redeeming Avios
One standout redemption is flying Qatar Airways’ world-renowned Qsuite business class from Washington D.C. to Doha for just 54,000 Membership Rewards points with this bonus, compared to the usual 70,000 Avios required, and you can transfer your newly earned Avios directly to Qatar Airways Privilege Club for booking.
You can reach Ireland affordably through Aer Lingus, with economy flights to Dublin available from various North American cities for as little as 10,000 transferred points after the bonus.
Iberia offers excellent business class value to Spain, where off-peak flights from East Coast cities or Chicago cost just 32,000 Membership Rewards points with the transfer bonus instead of the standard 40,500 Avios.
