Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Next” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. The compensation we receive and other factors, such as your location, may impact what ads and links appear on our site, and how, where, and in what order ads and links appear. While we strive to provide a wide range of offers, our site does not include information about every product or service that may be available to you. We strive to keep our information accurate and up-to-date, but some information may not be current. So, your actual offer terms from an advertiser may be different than the offer terms on this site.

This page may include: credit card ads that we may be paid for (“advertiser listing”); and general information about credit card products (“editorial content”). Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Apply Now” button or “Learn More” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. When you click on that hyperlink or button, you may be directed to the credit card issuer’s website where you can review the terms and conditions for your selected offer. Each advertiser is responsible for the accuracy and availability of its ad offer details, but we attempt to verify those offer details. We have partnerships with advertisers such as Brex, Capital One, Chase, Citi, Wells Fargo and Discover. We also include editorial content to educate consumers about financial products and services. Some of that content may also contain ads, including links to advertisers’ sites, and we may be paid on those ads or links.

    Last year Capital One introduced the ability to transfer miles to 14 airlines with cards like:

    Normally, Capital One Miles transfer to Emirates at a 2:1 ratio (2 Capital One Miles = 1 Emirates mile).  But now through March 24, 2019, there is a 100% transfer bonus to Emirates, which boosts the ratio to 1:1.

    While you’re here, subscribe to our newsletter so you don’t miss miles & points deals like this one.

    With this 100% Capital One transfer bonus to Emirates limited-time promotion, you can transfer Capital One Miles to Emirates at a 1:1 ratio

    Capital One Miles Transfer Bonus to Emirates

    At first glance, this might not seem like a great deal, because even with a 100% transfer bonus the ratio is just 1:1, and AMEX Membership Rewards always transfer to Emirates at a 1:1 ratio.  And sometimes they even have transfer bonuses on top of that!

    But part of the reason Capital One miles don’t typically transfer at a 1:1 ratio is because they are easier to earn on everyday purchases.  Both the Capital One® Venture® Rewards Credit Card and the Capital One® Spark® Miles for Business both earn unlimited 2X miles per $1 spent on all purchases.  And it wasn’t that long ago that the Spark Miles for Business card had a massive 200,000 miles intro bonus (no longer available).  The bonus is currently 50,000 Capital One miles after spending $4,500 on purchases in the first 3 months of account opening.

    So it’s likely there are a bunch of you sitting on a pile of Capital One miles right now.

    Personally, I’ve never used Emirates miles before.  But this is still good news because now we know Capital One will have transfer bonuses.  Now I’m just waiting for a transfer bonus to Avianca or Flying Blue.

    And even though Emirates isn’t a part of any major alliance, they partner with a bunch of other airlines like Alaska Airlines, JetBlue, and more.  Your best bet is usually to use Emirates miles for Emirates flights, but just pay attention to the taxes and fees they charge on award flights.  They can get out of control.
