Should you transfer?

With Flying Blue, some good rates are available on flights out of India. For instance, a promotional rate under the Flying Blue Promos is currently running, which offers Bangalore to Paris/Amsterdam for 18,750 Flying Blue Miles plus INR 5,200 in the economy cabin, whether non-stop on Air France or one-stop on KLM. With conversion under this bonus, it becomes 14,400 Infinia points. Also, don’t forget that Air France and KLM have great business-class products. With IHG, you should check dates for the properties you want to be at and then see if it is a good deal or not to book via a transfer bonus.

HDFC Bank Credit Cards is offering a transfer bonus to Flying Blue and IHG One Rewards this weekend (July 20-21, 2024). There will be another transfer bonus next weekend for three transfer partners.

  1. I believe there is a snag on the SmartBuy website. While trying to use my Infinia Card, the IHG transfer transaction did not go through, giving me an error, but points were debited, and the transaction was missing in the Accounts section (of my SmartBuy account). whereas while using my DCB Card, the transaction went through and was also reflected in my IHG account.
    On calling SmartBuy and HDFC Card, they are still unable to locate such an anomaly. It looks like I’ll have to wait and see. I have been informed that ‘such’ points that have fallen through the cracks will be reversed in 30 days. Alas, I may miss such points transfer window.

    I would be keen to learn if anybody else has faced such an issue and a possible resolution.
