Here is a rarity – Turkish Airlines is offering a bonus for buying their Miles&Smiles miles until February 19. The bonus is tiered and maxes out at 75% when you buy 50,000 to 99,999 miles. The cost of the miles are US$30 per 1,000 which means buying 50,000 miles will cost you US$1,500 but you’ll end up with 87,500 miles after the bonus. That ends up being 1.71 cents per mile which is a great deal considering Turkish Miles&Smiles has some real gems for reward flight options. It only costs 10,000 miles to fly one way in economy class within North America but Turkish includes Honolulu, Mexico and Bermuda. So yes you can get a round trip economy class Star Alliance ticket from the lower 48 or Canada to Hawaii for 20,000 miles. Even better is business class for only 30,000 miles round trip! So if buy yourself 52,000 miles for $1,560 to score 91,000 Miles&Smiles you’ll have three round trip flights in business class to Hawaii! And that’s only one example – the Miles&Smiles program has quite a few other great redemption options that you can check out here.
Update: Nick from Frequent Miler was kind enough to let us know flights between the US and Hawaii actually only price at 7,500 Miles&Smiles one way or 15,000 round trip! That makes this an even better deal.

It’s actually 7500 miles each way for domestic flights — so 15K round trip to Hawaii from the continental US as an example. 10K each way is for international North America flights (like US to Canada or US to Mexico).
But thanks for posting this! Could certainly be a good deal.
Awesome! Thanks for those details Nick. I’ll update the post
Good deal if you want to go to Hawaii.
And if not? Any other reason to buy if Hawaii is not on the list?
They do have really good redemption rates from the US to Turkey and Europe as well so that can be option. Check out this article on FrequentMiler for some optoins https://frequentmiler.com/buy-turkish-miles-from-1-71c-each-hawaii-from-256-50-round-trip-econ-427-50-business/
