Quick Thoughts
You won’t see this transfer bonus being displayed when logging in to your Citi ThankYou account because the bonus is being administered on Etihad’s end.
Best Uses for Etihad
- Business class to South America on AA from 30-50K each way. Etihad's award chart for American Airlines flights is very competitive, starting at 30K miles each way (includes Honduras, Guatemala, El Salvador, Ecuador, Costa Rica, Colombia, Belize, Nicaragua, Peru, Panama, and Venezuela).
- Business class to Europe from 80K each way. Etihad Guest offers good value for flying on American Airlines, Brussels Airlines, or Royal Air Maroc between the US and Europe. Pricing starts at 80K each way in business class on Brussels Airlines or to Casablanca on Royal Air Maroc (connections to Europe will add additional miles and fuel surcharges around $170 each way) or in business class on American Airlines (no fuel surcharges).
Things to Know
- Book Etihad, AA or Virgin Australia awards online. All others must be booked by calling Etihad Guest at 1-877-690-0767.
- Etihad phone agents have historically had trouble booking partner awards, though the new call center in Serbia appears to be quite competent. If your agent appears to be having trouble, you might want to HUCA (hang up, call again).
