As we do each month we bring you the latest set Miles & More "
Meilenschnaeppchen"
or Mileage Bargain discounted
mileage awards. This month the offers are for flying out of Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver. Please note that this
should be the last month of business class pricing out at 55,000
miles as Miles & More is boosting the standard 105,000 miles
requirement to 112,000 come May 9th. We aren't sure if they will still
discount by 50,000 miles or some amount at that time. Economy class will
remain at a 60,000 miles base amount.
This month's offers:
MontrealAustrian Airlines Economy Class
Book by April 30 for travel between April 29 - June 30, 2019
TorontoLufthansa Business Class
Book by April 30 for travel between July 15 - August 31, 2019
VancouverLufthansa Business Class
Book by April 30 for travel between July 15 - August 31, 2019
With this month's offer you can redeem Miles & More miles for round trip
business class
tickets on Lufthansa for
only 55,000
miles. This is nearly a 50% discount off the
normal award ticket price of 105,000 miles. Remember however
Miles &
More charges some major fees for redeeming miles on these flights so be
sure you also
check what a revenue ticket costs however remember this is for business
class so even several hundreds of dollars in fees along with 55,000
miles could be the savings
you are looking for.
Here are some of the Business Class offers this month:
You can also choose to redeem 30,000 miles for round-trip Economy Class
Austrian Airlines flights from Montreal to Austria. This is a 50% discount off
the
normal Economy Class award ticket price of 60,000 miles.
Here is an example of some of them:
Short on Miles & More miles? Your best bet is to convert
Marriott Bonvoy points to
Miles & More on a 3:1 basis plus you'll earn 5,000 bonus miles when
you convert 60,000 points at a time. That means 75,000 points is
all it would take to get one of the economy class tickets if you
don't have any Miles & More miles to your name.
If you don't have any Marriott Rewards Points you
can get close to amount required to redeem for the tickets by grabbing some credit cards! How so?
As we always mention in this post you can boost your Miles & More account
with the
Marriott Bonvoy American Express Card to top off your account. Currently
the card
comes with a 60,000 point sign up bonus when you spend $1,500 on the card and then you could
also grab the
Marriott Bonvoy Business American Express Card as it also has a 60,000 point sign up bonus and then you
would ultimately be able to have 120,000 points not
including what is earned on spending.
Of course timing of
getting the card(s) now, spending and getting the points will likely not
happen for this month but it sets you up for future offers. Need to
grab two tickets for an itinerary? You could choose to
get one Marriott card for yourself and one for your partner or spouse.
