Etihad Guest Launches 60% Miles Bonus Promotion at Two Cents Each

Etihad Airways' loyalty program, Etihad Guest, has rolled out a new promotion allowing members to purchase miles with a 60% bonus. Running from 12:01 AM GST on November 12 through 11:59 PM GST on November 22, 2026, the promotion offers a tiered bonus structure that lowers the acquisition cost to approximately two cents per mile when purchasing the maximum amount.

Under standard rules, Etihad Guest charges 3.2 cents per mile without taxes or fees. Through this promotion, members who maximize the offer can acquire a total of 320,000 miles for $6,400. Standard accounts are capped at buying 200,000 miles per calendar year before bonuses, while Etihad Guest Platinum members can purchase up to 300,000 miles annually. Transactions are processed via points.com, meaning they do not code as airfare purchases on credit cards.

Before you go: Purchased miles typically post within 72 hours and do not count toward elite status. Experts advise against speculative purchases, recommending this offer only for travelers with an immediate, specific redemption in mind, especially given that independent valuations estimate the miles at roughly 1.1 cents each.
