Please Do Be Tempted by ThankYou Points/Virgin Atlantic Transfer Bonus
March 11, 2016
A recent post by View from the Wing said not "to be tempted" by the current 25% transfer bonus from Citi ThankYou Points to Virgin Atlantic miles. His argument was that there are so few good uses of Virgin Atlantic miles that he had to dig "deep in the barrel" to come up with any.
Well I dug for 15 seconds to find two great uses to South America and Europe.
South America to Europe: 17k Singapore Miles or 58k in First Class

Update 6/26/16: Singapore is ending its Barcelona <-> Sao Paulo route. The last flight is October 20, 2016. Singapore will continue to fly Singapore <-> Barcelona, but that isn't much consolation. Award space is great Barcelona <-> Sao Paulo through October 20.

Fly between South America and Europe for 17,425 miles one way year round. Or for only 58,225, fly one of the world's nicest First Classes.
