  • Probably best to keep this as an academic idea, but a fun read by God Save the Points.

    • 1:46 Citi ThankYou Points 30% Bonus to Virgin Atlantic (link)

    • Matches the Membership Rewards promo from a few weeks ago.
    • The Program is either outstanding or completely terrible depending on the use of the miles.
    • Do not transfer if you don’t know what to do with the miles.
