It's Back! 100,000 British Airway miles for $95

Posted by Ricky Radka on Wednesday, April 6, 2011

It's back! It has been almost a year and a half since British Airways offered the well received and applied for Visa Signature card which allowed new card members up to 100,000 BA miles. If you missed out on it last time around, here is another shot.

Apply by May 6, 2011, to receive British Airways "most generous" offer of the year. You will earn 50,000 miles upon your first purchase with the card and an additional 50,000 bonus BA miles after spending $2,500 within the first three months of activation.

That should be enough to earn you two "free" (we use that word loosely, since there are always taxes and sometimes fees associated with frequent flyer programs and airline tickets) trans-atlantic tickets to the many European destinations served by British Airways and the Oneworld team.

Other benefits include:

• No foreign transaction fees.

• BA Miles for every dollar spent—Earn 2.5 BA Miles for every $1 spent on British Airways purchases.

• Earn 1.25 BA Miles for every $1 spent on everyday purchases.

• BA Miles Travel Together Ticket—With the BA Miles Travel Together Ticket, you can bring a companion on your next reward flight without using any additional BA Miles. Every year you spend $30,000 on your card, you’ll earn a Travel Together Ticket good for two years.

As with any airline affiliated credit card there are pages of terms and conditions, so please read carefully before deciding if this is the right deal for you. The annual fee for this card is $95. (Allthough it does state $75 on the Pricing and terms link on the main page, $95 appears on application page) Apply here.

In the past I've had problems using BA miles on the dates I wanted. But this summer, I was able to find my exact dates on a round-trip to Venice with stopovers in London in both directions. I was really amazed. Are they opening up more seats due to past problems with using miles? BTW, the miles were all earned with this 100,000 promo when it was offered last time. Well worth it, even with the taxes you have to pay (I flew in business class roundtrip which would have cost over $10,000 had I paid in cash.

Another good thing about using these BA miles is that they will usually let you have a free stopover in London, so to maximize your value on the redemption, fly somewhere else on your ticket too!
