Your Avianca LifeMiles are Losing Value Every Day. Cash Out Before the Next Devaluation.

As a points broker with 20 years in the trenches, I’ve seen every “Star Alliance Sweet Spot” come and go. In 2026, Avianca LifeMiles is at a crossroads. While it remains a cult favorite for its lack of fuel surcharges, the program has become increasingly volatile. With the major 2025 award chart shifts—like Business Class to Europe jumping to 80,000 miles and domestic United flights hitting 10,000—the “deal of a lifetime” is getting harder to find.

If you’ve been hoarding LifeMiles for a Lufthansa First Class seat that never has availability, or if you’re tired of the “ghost award” glitches on the Avianca website, it’s time to stop playing their game. At The Points King, we specialize in helping you sell Avianca airlines miles for a high-value cash payout.

Why Sophisticated Sellers Liquidate LifeMiles in 2026

LifeMiles is a “high-risk, high-reward” program. We remove the risk and give you the reward in cash.

  • Beat the 12-Month Expiration Trap: Avianca has one of the strictest expiration policies in the industry. Your miles vanish after just 12 months of inactivity, and unlike most airlines, redeeming miles doesn’t reset the clock—only earning does. Don’t let your balance hit zero; sell them while they are active.

  • Avoid High Reinstatement Fees: If your miles have already expired, Avianca charges a staggering $10 per 1,000 miles to bring them back. Don’t pay the airline to access your own rewards—sell them to us before that deadline hits.

  • Star Alliance Demand: Because LifeMiles can book United, ANA, and Lufthansa, our corporate travel partners have constant demand for them. This allows us to pay you a premium rate that often beats the value of an economy redemption.

This Colombian based Star Alliance Airline offers one of the unique and special airline loyalty program called Lifemiles. This is a must have currency in your loyalty portfolio. As a member of Star Alliance, Avianca’s lifemiles can be used with other member airlines like All Nippon Airways(ANA), Turkish Airlines, Air Canada and so many others. Lifemiles can also be used with other partners of Avianca not included in the alliance like British Airways, Delta, Cayman Airways, Emirates and many others.

Avianca is an old and popular airline with over 160 aeroplane fleet, 14 thousand board seats, 100 airports, boarding gates in 25 countries. Its lifemiles can be immensely enjoyed by flying over 1,300 destinations worldwide and also by flying on Star Alliance member planes and partner airlines.

What Is the Cash Value to Sell Avianca Airlines Miles?

While Avianca frequently sells miles to the public for 1.3 cents during “160% bonus” promos, they offer very little value for internal redemptions like hotels or retail. We provide a competitive market rate based on real-time Star Alliance demand.

How do I earn Lifemiles?

Lifemiles can be earned easily by miles enthusiasts through several platforms such as:

  • SPG: Since lifemiles became included as a transfer partner of SPG in 2016, you can earn 5000 bonus lifemiles for every 20,000 starpoints
  • Flying of any star alliance airline and crediting paid partner flights to Avianca.
  • Through crediting discount United Economy tickets like paid Aeromexico and Iberia flights to Lifemiles.
  • Using Co-branded ticket cards: Avianca offers U.S residents two credit cards (Avianca Vuela Visa Card and Avianca Vida Visa Card) through Puerto Rico’s Banco which was issued late 2016.
  • Bookings: Making bookings through online travel agencies like Kalingo.com and Booking.com could earn you lifemiles between the range of 1 and 25 for each dollar spent.
  • Tying your lifemiles to your stay at global chains like SPG, Hilton and the likes would earn you lifemiles for each stay or per dollar spent.
  • Earning Citi Thank You Points with the Citi Prestige credit card and Citi Thank You Premier would earn you lifemiles at a 1:1 ratio.

Avianca Membership levels

Avianca enables you to achieve status and recognition through lifemiles from Star Alliance elite program. This credits you the majority of your miles from partner flights, but there is a requirement of minimum mileage for Avianca. Each of the levels includes the perks of the previous level.

  • Silver Status: Requires 22,000 miles with up to 5,000-10,000 miles flown on Avianca
  • Gold Status: Requires 40,000 miles with up 5,000-10,000 miles flown on Avianca
  • Diamond status

Lifemiles redemption

To redeem lifemiles for Avianca or its partners operated flights is relatively easy and straightforward. The Lifemiles Calculator can be used to find out the miles an Avianca operated flight will cost. A region-based chart is used to determine the number of lifemiles needed for other Star Alliance operated flights.

Perks of redemption

  • No added fuel surcharges on any airline
  • Allows for the redemption of both cash and miles for a flight but a minimum of 40% miles is required
  • No close in booking fee

Is it legal for me to sell Avianca LifeMiles?

Yes. In the U.S. and most international regions, it is entirely legal to sell your frequent flyer miles. While it violates Avianca’s internal program terms, we use professional “private booking” protocols to ensure your transaction is handled discreetly. We’ve been a trusted name in this industry for 20 years for a reason.

Will I lose my Avianca Elite status (Red Plus, Silver, Gold, or Diamond)?

No. Your elite status is based on “Qualifying Miles” earned through flying or specific credit card spend. Selling your redeemable “LifeMiles” balance is viewed by the airline as a standard redemption. You keep your Star Alliance Gold status, your lounge access, and your 2026 upgrade vouchers; you just get cash for the points you don’t need.
