With CBA Awards, you get +10000 bonus points if you spend your existing points at Flight Centre....... go to the Awards website and follow the links to the flight centre online booking system where your 10000 points will be added. This is equivalent to approximately $80 free, except flight centre costs $20 booking fee, so extra $60 net.
Without this offer it is usually better to transfer your points to VB Velocity or QANTAS instead.
Reasoning:
CBA Awards gives you about 0.5cents per CBA point when booking with Flight Centre, minus the $20 flight centre booking fee.
VB Velocity gives you about 1 cent per VB point, but the conversion of Award points to VB Points is 2:1, so effectivelty you are getting 0.5 cents per CBA point. EXCEPT now you save the $20 flight centre booking fee.
