if you have 92,000 American Express points

If you have 92,000 Amex points, you have enough points for a round trip business class flight to Europe. Amex is running a 30% transfer bonus to Iberia, British Airways, and Aer Lingus through September 27. All three use the same currency — Avios — and every 10,000 Amex points you transfer becomes 13,000 Avios. Here's what the math looks like. Iberia prices JFK → Madrid in business from 59,000 Avios each way. That's 118,000 Avios round trip, which at the standard 1:1 rate would cost you 118,000 Amex points. With the bonus, 92,000 Amex points becomes 119,600 Avios — enough for the full round trip. Same flight, 26,000 fewer points. That same round trip in cash is $7,985. Taxes and fees on the award run about $250, so you're pulling roughly 8 cents of value out of every Amex point you transfer. This isn't just a New York play. IAD → Madrid prices at the same 59,000 Avios each way against a $13,433 cash fare — same points, even better value. Business award space is thin. The dates I pulled had one or two seats left. Find your space first, then transfer. Transfers are non-reversible, and the bonus ends September 27. Drop any questions in the comments and I'll answer them.
