Qatar Airways is offering up to 65% bonus miles when you buy Avios through Privilege Club by 6th December 2025 (5AM, 7th December 2025 in SGT). At the maximum bonus, the cost per mile works out to be around 1.80 cents which isn’t cheap, but there is still some value to be found as well as we will explore later, along with cheaper ways to get miles.
Promo Details
To qualify for the maximum bonus of 65%, at least 44,000 miles have to be purchased by 5AM, 7th December 2025 (SGT).

Why should I buy Avios?
The last time I talked about buying Avios, it was through Finnair’s sale and it cost 1.90¢ per mile. I illustrated a few examples where it could make sense even at such this relatively pricey cost per mile.
With Qatar’s promo bringing the cost per mile to 1.80¢, a business class flight to/fro Finland via Finnair would cost roughly S$1,345 per flight inclusive of taxes, which isn’t exorbitant as far as business class flights go. A return flight to/fro Koh Samui in economy via Bangkok Airways would be around S$316 inclusive of taxes.
I’ve recently transferred around a million miles to Avios, so stay subscribed as I will definitely have more content explaining how to get good value from miles beyond just KrisFlyer in the near future.
Cheaper ways to buy Avios
Before you pull the gun on this promo, you should also note that there are cheaper ways to buy Avios miles.
One such way is using Citibank cards on payment services like ipaymy, CardUp, or Citi PayAll. With ipaymy or CardUp, you can buy miles from around 1.35¢ to 1.47¢ depending on the promo code and card you use. I’ll have an article on Citi PayAll’s latest promo very soon so stay subscribed for updates.
Another way would be to use British Airways’ Balance Boost where you can buy Avios from as low as 1.55¢ each. This requires you to transfer points directly into your British Airways account before you can pay to double or triple your balance.
Nonetheless, buying Avios directly from Qatar Airways is likely more straightforward than the methods above, and you might find it worth the extra cost if you are looking for a relatively small amount of miles to complement your existing balance for a flight redemption.
