All Nippon Airways: 30,000 Amex points with $2,500 spend

Reported by One Mile at a Time: A new targeted Amex Offer can add 30,000 bonus Membership Rewards points to an All Nippon Airways purchase of $2,500 or more, if you're one of the cardholders who gets it.

The offer runs through Nov. 30, 2026, according to the blog. It's targeted, so don't expect it on every account. One Mile at a Time says it may show up on multiple Amex cards. If it does, the blog's advice is to register your Amex Platinum Card, because that card earns 5x points on airfare bought directly with the airline.

The value depends on how you use Membership Rewards points. One Mile at a Time values them at 1.7 cents each, which puts the 30,000 point bonus at roughly an extra 8.5% return. On a $2,500 ticket paid with the Amex Platinum, you'd end up with 42,500 points, worth about $722.50 by that measure. That's close to a one-third return.

There's also a version of the offer that gives a $300 statement credit instead of points. One Mile at a Time considers the points version the better deal.

Read the fine print before you book. The offer only makes sense if you already plan to fly ANA. Hitting $2,500 in spending just to get the bonus isn't a good reason to buy a ticket you wouldn't otherwise buy. And the points valuation is an estimate; your redemption may be worth more or less depending on how you use it.

What to do now: check your Amex Offers before booking any ANA ticket. If the offer is there, compare the points and statement credit versions, and use the card that earns the most on airline purchases. The deadline is Nov. 30, 2026.
