Aer Lingus Business Class From 43K Points |
| If you’re looking for a trip to Europe in the next few months, Aer Lingus has business class award space for up to four people on a bunch of routes, including some less common departure airports such as Cleveland and Hartford.
New 100K Sign-Up Bonus
As you’ve probably noticed over the years, I don’t enjoy fluff content or BS about credit cards. So, while there’s a ton of hype about this offer in the points community, the new sign-up bonus of 100,000 transferable points is legit. It matches the all-time high offer for this card. In my opinion, it’s worth picking up if you’re eligible.

| |  | | Flight Experience Aer Lingus’ Airbus A330 business class cabin is arranged in a 1-2-1/1-2-2 staggered layout. The throne seats provide the most space and storage. On the A321neo, you’ll find a 1-1/2-2 cabin layout similar to the older JetBlue Mint product. While only some seats will have direct aisle access, you’ll be guaranteed a lie-flat seat.
While the experience won't blow you away if you've flown some of the nicer business class products out there, this is still a solid way to fly to Europe!

| Best Ways To Book
Avios: Great Off-Peak Rate, Plenty Of Transfer Options
If you book with Avios, 60,000/50,000 Avios (peak/off-peak), you can transfer points to British Airways from Amex, Bilt, Capital One, and Chase. In a pinch, you can transfer Citi points to Qatar Airways and move the Avios to your BA account.
Given how easy it is to earn Avios, this will be the best option for many people.
Alaska: Great Option With Amex Or Bilt Points
Alaska miles are a great way to book from the east coast as you’ll only need 45,000 miles a one-way - plus, no surcharges - and you can can transfer points from Bilt or Amex (via Hawaiian Airlines).
If you connect on Alaska or depart from the midwest, west coast, or Orlando, the award rate will be higher, but it could still be your best option especially if you’re traveling on peak dates with Avios. |
|  | How To Search
Search with Alaska: If you want to book a one-way, check "One-way" Check "Use miles" Enter your origin & destination Select your dates Select number of passengers Run the search Complete the booking
Before you transfer points, search with the airline program you’ll use to book.
Happy booking! |
