Citibank’s 
credit card division announced that you can can now transfer an unlimited number of your ThankYou Points to Virgin America Elevate points. This is great news for those of us in lust with the Virgin America experience. I say lust because they do not fly to many cities as we await them to build up their fleet. This is also great for Citi cardmembers and the ThankYou Points network for being one of the best as it is improving day by day over all the other credit card rewards in means of redemption. Citi cardmembers can now transfer their ThankYou Points to 14 hotel and airline loyalty rewards programs.
Eligible cards for this ThankYou points promotion include the Citi ThankYou Premier and Citi Prestige cards. The 25% bonus runs through October 21, 2015. You must transfer a minimum of 1,000 ThankYou Points. Every 2 ThankYou Points you transfer to Virgin America you will receive 1.25 Elevate points.
Virgin America reward flights start as low as 2,500 points to destinations across the U.S. and Mexico including San Francisco, Los Angeles, Boston, Cancun, and later this year, Honolulu, Oahu and Kahului, Maui.
“We look forward to welcoming Citi cardmembers on board Virgin America with this new points offer. They will be flying in style in our mood-lit cabins with fleetwide WiFi, custom-designed leather seats, power outlets, and a video touch-screen at every seatback offering guests on-demand menus and countless entertainment options. With no blackout dates or restrictions on Virgin America reward flights, flyers can redeem points on any flight at any time across our network, including our upcoming services to the Hawaiian Islands,” said Stuart Dinnis, Director of Loyalty at Virgin America.
To transfer ThankYou points to Virgin America’s Elevate points, call 1-800-ThankYou or log into your Citi account and click on ThankYou points then the transfer tab.
