Smart Recommendations
Best Time to Book
Book award flights for popular routes like New York (JFK) to London (LHR) in mid-January to February, as this period often sees lower demand and higher availability for those using Avianca miles.
Sweet Spot
You can redeem 70,000 Avianca Lifemiles for a one-way business class ticket from Los Angeles to Lima, which typically costs around $1,500.
Routing Trick
Book a round-trip from Los Angeles (LAX) to Buenos Aires (EZE) via Bogotá (BOG), allowing you to utilize the Avianca stopover policy, saving approximately 1,200 miles compared to flying direct on United Airlines.
Avoid These Fees
Avoid flying with Spirit Airlines on routes from Las Vegas to Los Angeles, as they can charge up to $65 for a carry-on bag and $50 for checked baggage, significantly increasing your travel costs.
