It's raining transfer bonuses by Ben Smithson, Senior writer It's a great time to be sitting on some transferable points! Right now, you can take advantage of some of the biggest credit card transfer bonuses we've seen in years. We usually don’t recommend transferring your credit card rewards unless you have a specific and immediate use for them because these partner loyalty programs can, unfortunately, increase redemption costs, often without notice, and transfers from credit card programs to partner programs cannot be reversed. However, with so many great offers currently available, we've done the hard work for you and matched the best five offers with the routes and seats bookable right now, like: Business-class flights to Turkey from just 44,000 Citi ThankYou Rewards points, thanks to the 50% transfer bonus available through Oct. 18. Business-class flights to Europe from Dulles International Airport (IAD) near Washington, D.C., from just 38,000 American Express Membership Rewards points via the 20% transfer bonus until Oct. 31 (with other transatlantic routes from 50,000 Amex points). Economy-class flights to Spain from just 5,000 Chase Ultimate Rewards points with a 30% transfer bonus until Oct. 31. Qatar Airways’ amazing Qsuite business class to the Middle East and beyond from just 54,000 Chase Ultimate Rewards points, thanks to the 30% bonus until Oct. 31. Economy-class flights to London from just 5,000 Citi ThankYou Rewards points with the 30% bonus until Oct. 18. With so many fantastic transfer bonuses ending soon, now is the time to consider booking that spontaneous trip for fewer points than you might have expected.
