Buying Hotel Points or Airline points can be an excellent way to top up miles or extend their validity. There are fourteen offers for buying miles and points: eight from airlines and four from hotel programs. All these points or miles purchases will be in foreign currency (USD/CAD/EUR), so using a good Forex card is better.

Bottomline
Buying points and miles can be helpful if you’re short of the required points. However, opportunities to earn these points could exist in India. In most cases, topping up miles can make sense for some. I would always recommend making a buy for a firm journey. Otherwise, it could be a sunk cost. As all these purchases will be made in foreign currency, always use a reliable Forex card.
