Continental: Discounted Economy Awards To Europe And Africa!

Never Miss Another Deal - Follow DansDeals on Facebook

Continental has discounted awards to Europe and Central/South Africa.
For example for Europe, flights on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday are 22,500 miles each way instead of 30,000 miles each way. Flights on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday are 24,000 miles each way instead of 30,000 miles each way.

For example:
Newark-Zurich, 02/07-02/13, 45K miles+$64.40 tax.
Newark-Zurich, 02/08-02/19, 46.5K miles+$64.40 tax.
Newark-Zurich, 02/05-02/19, 48K miles+$64.40 tax.

Just type in your dates and the discount will apply automatically as long as you are traveling on valid dates (see rules below). Select flights and continue to see the discount.

Flights must have a Continental or United flight number, so flights on Virgin Atlantic for example with a Continental flight number will qualify.

You can transfer points from your Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card or Ink Bold cards to Continental (or from Freedom or Ink Classic cards if you have or know anyone that has a Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card or Ink Bold card). And of course you can transfer United miles to Continental miles for this promotion (and to extend the life of your miles).
