Club Vistara Points Fest 2024 - Upto 40% bonus CV points

Transferring Axis points to CV does not make sense anyways as CV redemption gives value only in specific scenarios even for domestic routes. For international flights CV is as good as useless as its too expensive. For Axis you are better off transferring to Krisflyer or Aeroplan for international.
Even for domestic ,value is quite bad unless we compare it to a flight booking for a nearby date.
 
The campaign is live from February 20 till March 31, offering members and Vistara Flyers (post-enrolment) the chance to earn a bonus of up to 100,000 CV Points (per transaction per eligible Points Transfer Partner) when transferring Bank/Hotel reward points to CV Points.

The campaign allows Club Vistara members to earn up to 40% Bonus CV Points (up to 100,000 CV Points per partner and up to 11,00,000 CV Points with all Points Transfer Partners) on eligible Bank/Hotel reward programs with a minimum transfer of 5000 CV Points. The eligible Points Transfer Partners include American Express, AU Bank, Club ITC, FAB, FI Money, HDFC Bank, HSBC, IndusInd Bank, SBI AURUM, SCB UAE, and Yes Bank.

Why do you say so? I checked Krisflyer miles redemption and an economy round trip from Del to Singapore is 40,000 points plus some extra charges. So the final cost might be close to 45k or more. You can easily get round trip DEL to SIN for 15 to 20k. So it doesn’t seem like a good value. Krisflyer does not allow India to Europe travel unless you first book to Singapore and then from there separately to Europe which would be prohibitively expensive. For DEL to LAX, you need 102,000 miles plus 10k or more in fees. Again, you can easily get those tickets for under 75k. In contrast, Vistara gives you a Delhi to Goa round trip for 12,000 points and in general, those tickets are around 11 to 12k Rs. Similarly, Vistara allows DEL to London or Paris for 60,000 points and generally those tickets are around 55k Rupees. So, to me, Vistara is much better value, especially when you get extra bonus points.

you can book star alliance tickets using krisflyer.. del to London/paris one way is 30500 points+ 3k fee.. Simple rule if u r booking economy then the return on points is approx .5rs to 1rs max( all airlines).. U get higher value only if u book business class.

Isn't that the same as Vistara and probably much more difficult to book? Vistara also gives you Del to London or Paris for 30,000 points. So why is Club Vistara terrible?

any it depends on person to person.. krisflyer gives much better range to book whereas vistara does not. plus vistara has less award seat availability for its own airlines redemption.
 
Has anyone been able to ascertain why Axis Bank is not included in the bonus offer? I called Axis but their customer service is so clueless. They don’t even know what Vistara is!

Krisflyer or Aeroplan gives much better options than CV. Unless you have specific flights planned for Vistara, generally dumping points under CV may not be a good idea (if other options are available). Also Krisflyer has many options for south east asia which Vistara doesnt. So in addition to star alliance, SEA options also make krisflyer better option.

Additionally, business class award flights (which deliver most value) are very expensive with Vistara.

They have excluded banks with whom they have co-branded cards, hence Axis is excluded.
