What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.

We’ve been talking about Avianca LifeMiles a lot lately, and for good reason. When it comes to booking premium cabin flights at fantastic rates, LifeMiles consistently delivers some of the best award pricing in the game.

Whether you're looking for a luxurious first-class experience or a comfortable business-class seat, Avianca LifeMiles can be a game-changer for maximizing your points and miles strategy. One of the biggest advantages of LifeMiles is their frequent transfer bonuses, allowing you to stretch your points even further.

Right now, there’s an excellent 15% transfer bonus when converting Membership Rewards (MR) points to Avianca LifeMiles. That means for every 1,000 Membership Rewards Points you transfer, you’ll receive 1,150 LifeMiles.

Why This Bonus Matters

A 15% bonus might not sound like a game-changer at first, but it adds up quickly—especially when paired with Avianca’s already competitive award pricing. Since LifeMiles frequently undercuts other programs when it comes to redemption rates, this transfer bonus makes an already solid deal even better.

For example, Avianca LifeMiles allows you to book United business class from New York (JFK) to London (LHR) for just 45,000 miles.

But with this 15% bonus, you’d only need to transfer 39,000 Membership Rewards Points to book that same award seat—an incredible value for a transatlantic business-class flight.

Domestic Flight Redemptions on United

LifeMiles isn’t just great for long-haul flights; it’s also a strong option for domestic redemptions on United Airlines.

A short-haul flight from Newark (EWR) to Washington, D.C. (DCA) costs just 6,500 Avianca miles, which means with the 15% bonus, you’d only need to transfer 5,600 Membership Rewards Points.

If you want to fly in style, you can also book United business class on this route for just 10,000 LifeMiles—requiring only 8,700 Membership Rewards Points with the bonus. This is one of the cheapest ways to fly in a premium cabin within the U.S., and with the transfer bonus, you can get even more value out of your Membership Rewards balance.

The Best Card to Use for Transfers

If you're looking for a solid travel credit card to earn Membership Rewards points, the American Express® Gold Card is a fantastic option.

With its generous bonus categories, including 4x points on dining and U.S. supermarkets (on up to $25,000 per year in purchases), you can rack up Membership Rewards Points quickly with the Amex Gold. And since Amex Membership Rewards points transfer to Avianca at a 1:1 ratio, plus this 15% bonus, you can make your points go even further toward better travel.

Important Details About the Transfer Bonus

One key thing to remember is that this transfer bonus is being offered by Avianca LifeMiles, not American Express. That means you won’t see the bonus reflected in your Amex account when making the transfer.

Instead, after you transfer your points, Avianca will apply the 15% bonus on their end, and the additional miles should show up in your LifeMiles account within 24 hours.

If you're considering making a transfer, now is the time to explore your options. This 15% bonus offer is available until February 28th, so you still have time to plan and book your next trip before pulling the trigger.

Whether you’re eyeing a transatlantic business-class seat, a domestic flight, or another sweet spot in the LifeMiles program, this is a great opportunity to maximize your points and book high-value redemptions. ✈️
