Chase is running a 30% transfer bonus from Ultimate Rewards to Avios right now — and it covers all three Avios-earning programs at once: British Airways Club, Iberia Club, and Aer Lingus AerClub. Here’s what that’s worth and how the window works.

The Offer

  • Bonus: 30% — 1,000 Chase Ultimate Rewards points become 1,300 Avios.
  • Covers: Transfers to British Airways Club, Iberia Club, and Aer Lingus AerClub — all three share the same Avios currency, so the bonus applies no matter which one you transfer into.
  • Deadline: Through December 1, 2026 (one tracker lists December 2 — confirm the exact cutoff time in your Chase account before transferring on the last day).
  • Minimums: Transfers must be made in increments of 1,000 points, with a 1,000-point minimum.
  • Speed: Chase-to-Avios transfers are typically instant.

Chase is also running two other transfer bonuses through early December — 80% to IHG One Rewards and 30% to Wyndham Rewards — but those are separate offers with their own terms, not part of this one.

Is 30% to Avios a Good Deal?

Avios pricing is distance-based rather than fixed by cabin or region, so the same 1,300 Avios can be a fantastic deal on a short-haul Oneworld redemption and a mediocre one on a long-haul business-class seat. Before transferring, price your specific route on Oneworld partner availability — a 30% bonus only matters if there’s a seat you actually want to book with the result.

Transfers out of Ultimate Rewards are one-way, so don’t move points speculatively hoping a good redemption turns up later.

Does the Chase-to-Avios bonus apply to British Airways, Iberia, and Aer Lingus?

Yes — all three programs share the same Avios currency, so a transfer to any of the three earns the 30% bonus during the offer window.

When does the bonus end?

Most trackers list December 1, 2026 as the cutoff, with one source listing December 2 — confirm the exact time in your Chase account before transferring on the last day.

Is there a minimum transfer amount?

Yes, transfers must be made in increments of 1,000 Chase Ultimate Rewards points, with a 1,000-point minimum.

How fast do Chase transfers to Avios post?

Typically instant, though it's good practice to leave a buffer before a ticketing deadline in case of delays.

Are the IHG and Wyndham transfer bonuses part of this offer?

No — Chase is running separate 80% (IHG One Rewards) and 30% (Wyndham Rewards) bonuses through early December, but each has its own terms and is not bundled with the Avios bonus.

Final Thoughts

This is a solid, broad bonus — it works whether you’re after British Airways, Iberia, or Aer Lingus availability — but like any transfer bonus, it’s only worth using against a redemption you’ve already confirmed is available. Price the seat first, then transfer.
