Summary Avianca’s lifemiles loyalty program offers multiple ways to earn and redeem miles, appealing to both Latin American and US travelers. Earning lifemiles can be done by booking flights, purchasing additional services, using eligible credit cards, or transferring points from partner programs. Members can also enjoy additional benefits through Lifemiles+ subscription, spend miles on flights with avianca, and benefit from mixed-cabin bookings when redeeming miles.
avianca launched its lifemiles loyalty program in 2011 when the carrier merged with TACA, replacing its former AviancaPlus program. The airline bills lifemiles as "the loyalty program with the most rewards in Latin America," and offers ample opportunities for members to earn and redeem miles. It is not just a program for those in Latin America—it is very popular in the US, too.
Credit cards are offered in several markets (including the US), and there are many ways to transfer points from other programs. How to earn lifemiles As is the case with many other loyalty programs, one of the most cost-effective ways to earn lifemiles is by booking flights with the airline itself. Put simply, the higher the fare, the more miles are earned.
However, earlier this year, avianca simplified its fare system , offering four clear options in each class of travel, and it is worth noting that booking the airline's cheapest fare, known as Basic, does not earn any lifemiles. However, it is not only when purchasing flights that me.
