About Club Premier
Club Premier is the loyalty program of Aeromexico, Mexico's flag carrier and a SkyTeam alliance member. The program provides one of the most cost-effective routes to business class travel within Latin America, and specifically to Mexico - one of the highest-travel destinations for US cardholders - with a fixed award chart and competitive rates on Aeromexico's own flights. Two US transferable currencies transfer to Club Premier: American Express Membership Rewards at a bonus ratio of 1:1.6 (1,000 Amex points = 1,600 Club Premier points) and Citi ThankYou Points at 1:1.
The 1:1.6 Amex conversion ratio is Club Premier's most compelling structural advantage for US collectors. When Amex offers transfer bonuses (which have historically occurred 1–2 times per year to Aeromexico), the effective ratio can reach 1:2 or higher - meaning a 60,000-point Amex Gold welcome bonus could yield 96,000–120,000 Club Premier points. This compounding transfer ratio makes Club Premier an unusually efficient destination for Amex points relative to the airline's own network size. Transfers from Citi at 1:1 supplement the program for Citi ThankYou cardholders.
Aeromexico's network is centered on Mexico City (MEX) with nonstop US service from New York, Los Angeles, Houston, Miami, Dallas, Chicago, San Francisco, and many other cities. The airline operates a modern fleet including Boeing 787 Dreamliners on longer routes, with a competitive business class (Clase Premier) offering fully lie-flat seats. Club Premier points can also be used for SkyTeam partner airline awards, including Air France/KLM routes, though Flying Blue typically offers better pricing and availability for those partners specifically.

Why transfer points to Club Premier?
1:1.6 Amex Conversion - Best Ratio of Any US Bank Transfer
American Express transfers to Club Premier at a 1:1.6 ratio - one of only a small number of programs where transferable currency converts at better than 1:1. Every 1,000 Amex points becomes 1,600 Club Premier points, effectively a 60% bonus on every transfer. With periodic Amex transfer bonuses (which have historically added another 25–50%), the effective ratio can reach 2:1 or better during promotions. For Amex cardholders who earn large amounts of Membership Rewards, this multiplicative structure is a significant advantage.
Mexico and Latin America Fixed-Rate Awards
Club Premier's fixed award chart prices Aeromexico domestic and international routes competitively, particularly for travel to Mexico City and major Mexican cities that are among the most-traveled international routes for US cardholders. Business class (Clase Premier) on the 787 and 737 MAX fleet features fully lie-flat seats on long-haul routes and recliner seats on shorter segments. For frequent US–Mexico travelers, Club Premier provides a predictable cost structure unavailable from programs with dynamic pricing on Latin America routes.
Amex Transfer Bonuses - Historical 25–100% Promotions
Aeromexico is one of the programs that Amex targets for periodic transfer bonus promotions. When a 50% bonus is active, 60,000 Amex points become 144,000 Club Premier points at the base 1:1.6 rate plus the 50% promotion - enough for a round-trip business class award to Mexico or significant Clase Premier travel within Latin America. These promotions appear unpredictably, typically for 3–6 weeks, and have historically occurred 1–3 times per year. Monitoring Amex's transfer promotion page is advisable for Club Premier accumulators.
Clase Premier: Lie-Flat Business on 787 Routes
Aeromexico's Clase Premier business class on Boeing 787 Dreamliners (operated primarily on US–Mexico City and Mexico City–Europe routes) features fully lie-flat seats with direct aisle access in a 1-2-1 configuration. On shorter US–Mexico routes operated by narrowbody aircraft, the business class is a recliner product. For travelers targeting the 787 lie-flat experience, routes from JFK, LAX, or MIA to Mexico City (MEX) provide access to the premier product at competitive Club Premier redemption rates.
How to transfer points to Club Premier
Follow these four steps every time. The golden rule: find available award space before transferring - transfers are irreversible.
- 1
Find the award first
Search for award availability on Club Premier's website before moving a single point. Note the flight number, date, cabin, and exact miles required. Award space can disappear at any moment - and transfers are irreversible.
- 2
Check for an active transfer bonus
Scroll up to the Current Bonuses table. If a bonus is live (e.g. +20%), you get 20% more miles for free - 10,000 points transferred becomes 12,000 miles. Timing your transfer to an active bonus is one of the easiest ways to stretch your balance without spending more.

Club Premier award chart - highlights
Chart type: Fixed zone-based chart (Club Premier own-metal + SkyTeam partners)
Club Premier uses a fixed zone-based award chart. Rates below are round-trip unless noted. Business class (Clase Premier) is approximately 2× economy on most routes. SkyTeam partner award pricing varies by carrier.
Amex transfers at 1:1.6 - apply the ratio when calculating effective Amex points needed. Citi transfers at 1:1. Verify current award pricing at aeromexico.com; chart subject to updates. SkyTeam partners may have limited award availability via Club Premier.
How much are Club Premier miles worth?
The value of a Club Premier mile varies significantly depending on redemption type. Economy redemptions typically deliver near the base valuation; business and first class awards - especially on partner airlines - can return 3–10× more per mile than the average.
Worked example
US–Mexico City Business RT retails ~$1,200. At 40,000 Club Premier points: $1,200 ÷ 40,000 × 100 = 3.0¢ per point. In Amex terms: 40,000 ÷ 1.6 = 25,000 Amex points needed → effective value = 4.8¢ per Amex point. The 1:1.6 ratio significantly amplifies per-Amex-point value.
Valuations per TPG April 2026 (1.5¢ average). Actual value varies by specific route, date, and cabin availability.
Best credit cards for earning Club Premier miles
AeroMexico rarely has a compelling US co-branded card. The most effective strategy is earning transferable points from a premium bank card and converting them when you are ready to book.
The Platinum Card® from American Express
Transfers at 1:1.6 to Club Premier - best effective ratio available. 100,000–175,000-point welcome bonus = 160,000–280,000 Club Premier points. Best for large accumulations targeting Clase Premier 787 business class awards.
Citi Strata Premier℠ Card
60,000-point welcome bonus at 1:1 to Club Premier + 3× on travel, dining, supermarkets, and gas. Supplementary earning channel for Club Premier when Amex balance is being preserved for other programs.
Club Premier vs other SkyTeam programs
Club Premier competes with Avianca LifeMiles and Flying Blue for Latin America and SkyTeam redemptions from US transferable currencies. All three programs serve overlapping routes; they differ on transfer ratios, bank access, and primary geographic strengths.
Bottom line
Use Club Premier for US–Mexico travel and to take advantage of the superior Amex 1:1.6 transfer ratio - especially when Amex is running a bonus promotion to Aeromexico. The multiplicative earn rate means each Amex point goes 60%+ further in Club Premier than in most other programs. Use Avianca LifeMiles for broader Star Alliance coverage, US-to-Latin America business class on non-Aeromexico carriers, and when you need Amex, Capital One, Citi, and Bilt access simultaneously. Use Flying Blue for transatlantic AF/KLM redemptions, Delta One bookings, and the Monthly Promo Rewards discounts that Aeromexico cannot match.
