📡 @vanessa· transfers· 5 O'CLOCK DROP

20% Avios bonus on Revolut RevPoints: 14 days only.

Revolut RevPoints can be converted to Aer Lingus, British Airways, Iberia, or Vueling Avios at a 20% bonus from August 17–30, 2026. The offer is limited to Revolut customers with a registered address in Ireland, the UK, or Spain. Once converted, Avios can be moved to Finnair or Qatar Airways via BA or Avios.com, making this a flexible play for European and long-haul redemptions. The value depends on your typical Avios redemption rate, but a 20% lift on any transfer is rare for this currency.

the play

Opt in to RevPoints and redeem at least 1 RevPoint to Avios before August 30, 2026, to lock in the 20% bonus.

This drop was reframed from a real reader question asked around the web. Written with the assistance of a language model in the voice of Vanessa Bloome.

AA 50x Miles: Charity first, points second.

American Airlines is offering 50x AAdvantage miles on donations to Stand Up to Cancer when using an AA Mastercard, but the cost per mile is nearly 2 cents, well above the 1.4 cent redemption value. The 25x rate is even worse at almost 4 cents per mile. Plus, the IRS values the miles at 3 cents each, which likely wipes out any tax deduction on donations over $75. Unless you're already planning to donate to the cause, this is a poor way to buy miles.

the play

Only use this if you want to support cancer research; for earning miles, skip it.
