Through December 6, 2013 US Airways is offering a 100% bonus on shared miles. This is a great promotion that allows you to purchase 50,000 Dividend miles at a rate of 1.3 cents per mile. So if you were to go transfer the maximum 50,000 miles to a family member’s account (or vice versa), you’d pay $567.50 for 50,000 miles. Considering you can get an off-peak economy award to Europe with just 35,000 miles, this is a pretty good value. Another great use is the 90,000 mile Business Class ticket to Asia and Europe.
If you need to top off your Dividend Miles account, you can pick up a US Airways Dividend Miles Premier Mastercard (scroll to the 35,000 mile offer) or a Starwood Preferred Guest American Express card. Starpoints transfer to US Airways at a 1:1 ratio, with a 5,000 mile bonus for every 20,000 transferred.
US Airways is currently a Star Alliance member, offering an extensive routing network on some of the best airlines in the industry. However, the airline is expected to merge with American Airlines some time this month, with Dividend Miles becoming AAdvantage miles. This could still be a positive, as American has some great award options as well. If you have a Citi AAdvantage World Mastercard, for example, you can get a 10% discount on redeemed miles. So a 40,00 mile off-peak award to Europe would cost just 36,000 miles – pretty close to what US Airways offers.
If you have Star Alliance travel plans, this presents a great opportunity to stock up on miles and make that trip happen.
