Smart Recommendations
Best Time to Book
Book award flights for travel to Europe from the U.S. in late January to early February, particularly routes like New York to London, as availability tends to be more favorable during this off-peak season.
Sweet Spot
You can fly from New York (JFK) to Lima (LIM) for 80,000 Avianca LifeMiles in business class, which typically costs around $2,500 in cash.
Routing Trick
Book a round-trip from Los Angeles (LAX) to Sao Paulo (GRU) with a stopover in Bogota (BOG), allowing you to explore Colombia without additional miles while saving approximately 5,000 miles compared to a direct route.
Avoid These Fees
Avoid flying with Avianca on routes to/from the US, as they impose a high fuel surcharge of approximately $250 for award tickets.
