The Blue Cash Preferred® Card from American Express increased its sign up bonus recently by now offe

I only value American Airlines miles at 1.77 cents, so I would not buy them speculatively at 2.33 cents each. But there are certainly awards where one can get far more than 2.33 cents of value per American Airlines mile. If you have such an award in mind that you want to book today, this purchase bonus can be a good deal for you.
Citi offers a personal credit card and a business credit card with 50,000 mile sign up bonuses after spending $3k in three months. (Neither is a link I can vouch for personally. I cribbed both from this FlyerTalk thread .)
You can also convert 20k Starpoints to 25k American Airlines miles, so the Starwood american west airlines minneapolis Preferred Guest® Credit Card from American Express can get you American Airlines miles. The 30k Starpoints you d have after meeting the $5k minimum spending requirement in the first six months would convert to 35k American Airlines miles.
Finally you can get the US Airways Premier World MasterCard ® and its 30,000 bonus US Airways miles on first purchase. US Airways miles and American Airlines miles are separate for the moment, but if the merger of the two carriers proceeds as I expect, they may soon be combined into one program.
There are certainly times when I have bought miles or when a client is a few thousand miles short and needs to buy them. These bonuses the airlines periodically american west airlines minneapolis offer are nice in those cases, even if they aren t a great deal to speculatively load up on miles.
Sorry if I asked this before, but is it possible to use Barclaycard Arrival points to buy miles, either from AA or other airlines? But you can use Arrival miles to pay the taxes on award tickets (in additional to any flight, hotel, or car rental) so I am not too used about using Arrival miles well.
Not at the 1.11 cents per Arrival mile rate because those purchases are handled by points.com. american west airlines minneapolis That means Barclaycard won t let you redeem 100 miles per dollar like they would for airline purchases. Instead you ll pay 200 miles per dollar! Not a good idea.
