Nevertheless, buying during promotions can be advantageous for those who have exhausted their credit card options or need additional points for specific redemptions.

When considering purchasing these loyalty rewards, it's crucial not only to look at promotional rates but also consider how they align with your travel plans and needs since loyalty programs frequently change their valuations unexpectedly.
