Bilt is offering a targeted transfer bonus to Virgin Red for Rent Day on September 1st. This will be available Monday, September 1 only, 12:00 AM ET – 11:59 PM PT. The bonus will be up to 100%, but you’ll need to check your account as it’s not specifically based on your Bilt Rewards status tier.
(Do not transfer before or after this time window.)
Virgin Red links directly to Virgin Atlantic so this is basically the same thing. From within the Virgin Red side, you can redeem for things like Virgin Voyages, Virgin Hotels, luxury safaris, and even Richard Branson’s private “Necker Island.” A seven day stay at Necker Island is 2,000,000 points right now, so perhaps someone with 1 million Bilt points and a 100% transfer bonus offer can get a deal 😉
You can also, of course, move the points to your Virgin Atlantic account where you can redeem for flights starting at 6,000 points. We like using points for domestic Delta flights (when there is availability!) as well as for SkyTeam flights and, of course, ANA First and Business Class flights. Virgin’s own flight rewards are dynamically priced but with high surcharges. I’d been seeing a lot of Upper Class seats from 29,000 points but I’m not seeing much now so do some homework on what you are hoping to book before transferring.
ANA First and Business class awards:
(Note that you can book one way for half the price of the points price listed.)
