October 29 Update: Fly Business Class from Vancouver to Europe for C$2,000 roundtrip, free IHG Rewards Club Spire Elite Status and more


Air France KLM Flying Blue has a new buy miles offer that can be really lucrative when you tie it in to their Promo Rewards promotion. Right now when you buy 4,000 or more miles you'll receive a 75% bonus. Tie this in with business class flights between places like Vancouver and places in Europe for only 53,000 miles (+taxes/fees) and it can really make sense to buy miles. For example to buy enough miles to get to a 53,000 mile redemption it will cost you EUR880 (~C$1300).
Add in roughly C$700 in taxes and fees and you have a round trip business class flight for C$2,000

There is an offer floating around on many of the frequent flyer blogs (PointsNerd, DoC, etc.) for free IHG Rewards Club Spire Elite status for 90 days and then a fast track to keep it. The terms and conditions specifically state this is for employees of eligible companies although it appears everyone is able to register albeit so far without their status being updated. I tested it and it does show up in my offers. My one big concern is that IHG has been known in the past to lock and/or delete accounts of members who register for offers that are not targeted to them. So proceed with caution if you choose to sign up for this and do so by October 31. You can find out more and register for the offer here
