Axis Magnus Suggestion for ER transfer

[avinash2711]

Hello everyone,

I have some doubts on transferring the ERs from magnus to different partners. I have around 65K+ ERs ( got 35k+ accelerated rewards while writing this post )

I have the following travel plans.

1. Attend an F1 race either in Nov this year (Abu Dhabi) , the final race, or any race next year ( UK, Singapore , Abu dhabhi, Qatar)
2. Watch Manchester United at Old Trafford 😀

All these might happen next year only.

1. Is Accor transfer, the best option for booking hotels for the above plans?
2. Best Accor Membership? Traveller or Explorer
3. Can I transfer my All live points to Accor plus once I take Accor plus membership.

Or​

should I trasnfer some points and buy the Accor plus and then add accor plus ID ( as someone mentioned member ID would change )​

3. Best way to buy the Accor Plus Membership ? I have it in order based on what I thought is the best

• Traveller - paying 4k points
• Referral Link - Traveller @ INR 7670 || Explorer @ 14337
• Vistara way - Traveller @ INR 11,800 || Explorer @ INR 15,930 OR 12,000 PER YEAR ||

And are there any referrals for programs like Krisflyer, Qatar or any other program. Please ping I will use that referral

Thanks for the help.

Please keep in mind Accor points are for 1 years. Also you can only use Accor points to book your own room. If you are going with friends or family and suppose take 3 rooms, then only your room can be booked via points. As for value for money, Accor is really better than all. For 10000 Points you will get 8000 Accor points whose value in rupees is around 1.8 times, so approx. Rs 14400.
Second great option is Club ITC. Right now I think 10% bonus is given
Third option is Club Vistara (Future of this point might be shaky) or airasia.com ( not the indian one which is airasia.co.in)

FYI I have like 2L ER to dump 😛
Club ITC points validity can be made unlimited so I am putting a lot there.
Second I am buying accor
Third Vistara worth 30KER

I called customer care to confirm. They said only your room will be booked by points. You can verify once again as their customer care is horrible

On the app it allows to book multiple rooms using accor points.

both accor and itc points can be extended

Multiple rooms can be booked for both Accor and ITC.

For Accor, It is possible on app(provided that points booking is available for that property). Didn't try other routes
For ITC, you can do it in app/website.

As @harshar said, both of them can be extended.

Also, don't transfer to Airasia.

One of the best way for redeeming points if you plan to travel to Singapore is Singapore Airlines. If you have enough points, you can plan to transfer 1.1-1.2 Lakh points to Singapore Airlines. With this you can get First class flight ticket from India to Singapore. If you are travelling from Mumbai to Singapore, you can as well get First Class Suite seats. This can be once in life time experience (courtesy Axis) as one way First class ticket from India to Singapore can cost anywhere between 1.5 - 2,5 Lakhs.

This is not for value seekers but can be good if someone wants to knock something like this off the bucket list. 🙂

How to extend ITC green point validity without stay? Is it just like Accor - any points credit activity extends the validity? Or something else?

If I have never paid any money to Accor to stay in their hotels, and I simply transfer edge rewards to Accor points and do not buy any Accor membership like traveller explorer limitless, etc;
Then can I use these transferred points to book hotels marked ALL on the Accor app?

Yes.

Yes.

Thanks 👍🙏
Is it worth paying money to buy Accor membership? If so, which ?
travel explorer limitless or ?

 

[violetevergarden]

I confirmed with the hotels directly. They say you can book for family as long as you are there. It either depends on the property you are staying or customer care of Accor is complete Trash

I don't think so, you need to be staying for using that otherwise transfer points to her account
