Lifemiles Miles + Cash sweet spot has changed

Lifemiles Miles + Cash sweet spot has changed

  1. Anonymous Guest

    Hey Ben,

    Just found out today that the sweet spot to purchase additional miles when buying an award ticket through lifemiles has changed. It used to have a range where it would sell 1,000 miles for $15, usually when the amount of miles being redeemed was between ~45% and ~60%. Today I tried to purchase a one-way ticket from BCN to LIM and it no longer provided this range. Nonetheless, now there is an even sweeter spot if redeeming ~48% of the total cost and buying ~52%, as the cost per 1,000 miles becomes $14.80. Please view chart:
