Turkish Airlines has launched a rare bonus miles promotion for new members, in collaboration with Visa China. The landing page is here.
- Create a new account using a dedicated link
- Book one flight by August 31st
- Complete the flight by October 31st
- Earn 5,000 bonus miles
Although the promotion is targeted at Visa cardholders in China, the registration link appears to be accessible to everyone. There doesn’t seem to be a separate claim process, and payment with a Visa card does not appear to be required.
Interestingly, the flight can be operated either by Turkish Airlines or any of its Star Alliance partners, as long as the ticket qualifies for mileage accrual in the Miles&Smiles program. For example, a single flight with Lufthansa, United, or Singapore Airlines would qualify, making this quite an easy offer to benefit from.
Before September 30th, you can earn another 1,000 Turkish miles after completing the first stay at any Hilton hotels.
A few thousand Turkish miles may not seem like much, but the program does offer some solid redemption value:
- Domestic flight within Turkey starts from 4,500 miles
- Partner domestic flights are fixed at 10,000 miles (including long routes like New York – Honolulu)
If you don’t have enough miles, you can top up by transferring Marriott points over at a 3:1 ratio.
