Turkish Airlines is selling Miles&Smiles miles with a bonus of up to 100%, from September 29 through October 15, 2026. The best price reported is about 1.5¢ per mile.
The 100% headline needs the largest purchases. Upgraded Points lists the top tier at very large amounts, so the bonus on a small purchase will be lower, and the effective price higher. Read the tier table in your account before you buy.
Before you buy points: Run your spending through the credit card rewards calculator. A buy-points sale does not fix a wallet that should be earning a transferable currency. Citi ThankYou, Capital One miles and Bilt points transfer to Turkish, so a transfer is usually the cheaper route into the same program.

Why people buy Turkish miles
Miles&Smiles is a Star Alliance program with a distance-based chart that prices some business-class awards well below other programs. That is the real reason to hold Turkish miles. The sale only helps if you have an award in mind and a transfer is not available.
Our verdict
Overpriced. The Points Guy’s October 2026 valuation for a Miles&Smiles mile is 1.1¢, so even the top-tier price of about 1.5¢ costs about 36% more than a mile typically returns, and smaller purchases cost more still. 50,000 miles at 1.5¢ is about $750 for miles worth about $550 on a typical redemption.
The exception is a specific business-class award you have already found, where the distance-based chart can get you well above 1.5¢ per mile. Even then, Citi, Capital One and Bilt transfer to Turkish, so a transfer is the cheaper route if you hold those points. Skip the sale otherwise.
