June 28, 2025: Citi launched new ThankYou Points transfer bonuses this week to Accor and Flying Blue. There’s definite value in both of these programs, but Flying Blue is probably the most interesting and useful to most of our readers.
Current Citi ThankYou® Points transfer bonuses
Program | Transfer bonus | Start Date | End Date |
---|---|---|---|
![]() Accor Live Limitless | 50% bonus. 1000 ThankYou Points = | 6/22/2025 | 7/19/2025 |
![]() Flying Blue | 20% bonus. 1000 ThankYou Points = | 6/22/2025 | 7/19/2025 |
My take: Always good to see Flying Blue transfer bonuses
I always enjoy a good Flying Blue transfer bonus. Paired with the carrier’s monthly promo awards, these can be a great deal, especially on the promo routes to Europe. I suspect that this will open up some great deals that readers can take advantage of.
Accor isn’t a program that I really engage with personally, although my understanding is that points are effectively worth 2 eurocents each toward bookings with Accor, so there could definitely be value here if you’re planning on staying at an Accor property and you don’t have a better use of your ThankYou points.
