Earn up to 10,000 bonus Avios with hotel bookings via Rocketmiles

Rocketmiles is a similar business to Kaligo.com and PointsHound.  It offers you a generous pile of airline miles when you book any property through their website.

As with Kaligo.com and PointsHound, Rocketmiles has deals with various hotel room consolidators to provide it with rooms at wholesale prices. Whilst the selection of hotels available is not the largest, the large profit margins on the rooms allow them to offer very generous mileage incentives when you book.

Rocketmiles will offer you 1,000 – 10,000 Avios points PER NIGHT when you book with them.

Their pricing, frankly, not always the cheapest.  The price should compare OK with booking the hotel directly from its own website (the consolidator route is often used by hotels to quietly move unsold rooms without cutting their headline price) but you should check other independent sites.

If you are not spending your own money when booking hotels, it can be very attractive.

Generous offer for both new and existing customers

Rocketmiles has a launched a new bonus in association with Avios.  You can find full details here.

It is not hugely generous unless you are staying somewhere very cheap.  You will get:

250 bonus Avios on your first and second nights

500 bonus Avios on your 3rd to 9th nights

1,000 bonus Avios on your 10th to 15th nights

This means a total of 10,000 Avios points – on top of your standard points – for booking 15 nights.

In addition, new customers will get an extra 2,000 bonus Avios with their first night.

The nights do NOT have to be consecutive.  However, you must book your stays by 31st August and complete your stays by 31st December.

Don’t forget ….

It is important to remember that you will not earn hotel loyalty points or status credit from your stay booked via Rocketmiles. Depending on the chain, you may or may not be able to get your status benefits honoured (free internet, free breakfast, upgrade etc).

This promotion is one to bear in mind if you are asked to book a non-chain hotel for a lengthy period.  If not, you may find better value with IHG’s Accelerate promotion this Summer which is the most generous of the chain offers.
