Avianca-Taca LifeMiles 100% Bonus On Buying Miles 8-30 April

Posted on by

One of the best buy miles promos is back!  Hopefully you all took my advice and joined LifeMiles when I first blogged about its benefits for eco-tourists.   One of the catches with these promos is that you must have joined before the promo is announced.  If you are new to MTTW, here is a complete list of all the airline programs I recommend you join to get started.

If you read other travel blogs, you will see most bloggers recommend using LifeMiles for Star Alliance awards, but it is much easier to use them on Avianca-Taca flights and you can save quite a bit since flights within Central America and Peru can be costly.  When you buy miles, you should always have a plan to use them within the next year or so as you never know when they may be devalued.  Also, be sure to check the cost of buying a ticket for cash (which may earn you miles depending on fare class) and compare to the cost of buying enough miles for an award.  You will be able to check availability on the LifeMiles site before you spend any money.  Star Alliance awards can be a bit tricky to get so if you have a destination in mind, please ask in the comments and I will tell you more info.  Awards on Avianca-Taca can be great bargains, I used them for our upcoming trip to Central America and saved over $1000 for 2 people!  Here’s the rules of the current promo:

Buy miles 2×1

Buy miles and get twice as much!

We want you to enjoy life twice as much, therefore, for each package of 1,000 miles you buy, LifeMiles will give you a bonus of 100 % more that can be redeemed to fly on routes operated by Avianca, TACA, AeroGal, partner airlines or Star Alliance member airlines. Also, you can enjoy your LifeMiles with the programs’ vast partner network or through our LifeMiles Catalog where you get the best products from different categories like technology, personal use items, home appliances and toys among others.

You can access this promotion through our Call Center, LifeMiles.com or at Avianca and TACA’s Information Centers.
