I doubt this will have any value proposition. Given Lifemiles quirks (which can sometimes be beneficial, but might be hard to take advantage of) and the transfer bonuses from other programs, what could this offer (for someone that doesn't fly Avianca)?
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Why

Lifemiles had (has) a CC. Have you ever heard of any generous SUB?  Lifemiles generosity starts with the quirks of their award chart, their mixed cabin pricing, and no YQ. Anything else isn't fun.

Previous card was with Popular bank iirc . This is with a new bank. Iinm the only other airline card that cardless has is TAP and the initial SUB was 65k. I would say that's pretty generous. Always good to have more options.
