Cathay Pacific: 30% Transfer Bonus + Up To 8,000 Bonus Miles (Hotel Programs) [Marriott Excluded]

Update 2: Marriott is actually excluded, making this promotion useless

Update 10/2/19: Deal is actually better than expected because you can do both deals, meaning you can transfer 60,000 Marriott points = 42,500 Cathay Pacific

The Offer

Direct link to offer

• Cathay Pacific is offering a 30% transfer bonus when you transfer hotel points
• If you haven’t converted any hotel points between 1 October 2018 and 1 October 2019 you can also get 3,000 bonus miles when you convert a total of 5,000-9,999 Asia miles or 8,000 bonus miles when you convert 10,000+ Asia miles

Our Verdict

The only transfer worth considering is Marriott, the other transfer rates are way too low. Normally 60,000 Marriott points = 25,000 Cathay Pacific miles. Under this promotion you’d get 30% 32,500 miles, plus if you haven’t done any transfers from October 1st 2018 until October 1st 2019 you’ll get an additional 8,000 miles (42,500 miles total).
