Avianca LifeMiles is offering up to 50% off on some routes from the US to Latin America when you book July 27, 2021 to July 31, 2021. Travel dates vary by route but a mostly available until the end of November 2021, but the key thing to note is that there are contradictory terms regarding flexibility. These tickets may be completely nonrefundable. This one seems like a bad idea unless your plans are very certain.

Quick Thoughts

Watch out for that last line of the key terms. While one part of the terms says that tickets redeemed under this promotion apply for Avianca’s flexible policies, the terms go on to later state that in case of cancellation or non use of tickets, both the miles and cash are not refundable. I’d be hesitant to book travel for months from now that is completely non-refundable.

That says, the prices are incredibly cheap: flights from Miami to Colombia for 7,500 miles one-way is about as cheap as it gets. Note that the terms indicate a maximum of 4 tickets redeemed for this promotion per LifeMiles account. I assume that a round trip counts as a single ticket, but two separate one-ways would likely count as two tickets. Keep that in mind when you’re strategizing redemptions.

If you’re planning travel in the next couple of weeks and you can take advantage of a near-term booking, this might be particularly interesting — but keep in mind that you do need to book by Saturday 7/31.
