I’m looking to do a Europe trip just 5 weeks out. I have a lot of MR Amex points. I’m open to going anywhere in Europe. Is there any service that can see what availability there is for an open set of routes / cities across airlines? Like what google flights can do

You just missed a promo for Amex 40% bonus on Avios. I got a roundtrip ticket NYC to Madrid in premium economy for only 18,000 Amex MR points, normally costing $1200+ cash price. Iberia also has a special 50% off Avios redemptions. Crazy good deal getting about 7 cents in value per Amex point.

It was a limited time offer promotion (it ended this week)....if you booked flights on Iberia using Avios (for Iberia only flights, not BA), they discounted the required Avios by 50%. So a ticket that normally required 50,000 Avios could be purchased with just 25,000 Avios plus tax.

I also received an email with another offer for 25% off the required Avios for all flights but I can't figure out how to utilize the discount.

1. Figure out where you want to go.
2. See who flies there from your airport.
3. Research which of their alliance partners take Amex points.

Or reverse 1 & 2.
