There is a targeted transfer bonus between Amex and AeroMexico currently running until 5/31/24. Transfer bonuses represent fantastic opportunities to get great redemptions at even better prices. Usually Amex Membership Rewards transfer in a ratio of 1000 to 1600, but during the bonus period, you’ll receive 1920 AeroMexico Premier Miles. Let’s take a look
Here’s the transfer bonus: Pretty close to 1:2
What’s a good way to use AeroMexico miles?
Their best cabin is on their dreamliner 787-9 featuring a lie flat, all aisle access, super diamond business class. It’s one of my favorite designs. Here’s a look at the pricing between Mexico City and Paris = 95k Premier Miles. During this promotion, you’ll nab it for around 48k Membership Rewards. Pretty awesome if you ask me.

Main Cast:
Cards that earn flexible points and should be used on the bulk of your purchases.
Supporting Cast:
Cards that earn fixed points in the currency of the airline/hotel and can not be transferred at attractive rates. These cards yield benefits that make it worth keeping, but not necessarily worth putting a lot of your everyday spend on.
