British Airways announces another batch of Avios Redemption flights 

09/10/2023 by Kevincm

For those of you who missed out before, it’s time to get booking on British Airways Avios-only flights.

This will offer an extra 1,250 summer holiday fares from as little as £1 + 25,500 Avios. The new options include Florence, Mallorca, Faro, Corfu and Ibiza, with all travel periods falling over the August Bank Holiday.

Avios-Only flights were launched earlier this year, on which 100% of the seats are exclusively available to British Airways Executive Club Members as reward seats.

The latest release brings the total number of Avios-Only flights to nearly 30 and includes departures from London City Airport for the first time. The new flights include:

Avios-only seats are sold as normal Reward Seats, with costs that can scale from the £1+Avios upward, depending on how much cash you want to put in. 

British Airways guarantees a minimum of 12 and 14 Reward Seats on standard short and long-haul flights respectively, whereas Avios-Only flights mean that every seat is available to purchase using Avios. Members booking the Avios-only flight can do so in any cabin as they normally would through ba.com.

Don’t forget the earning changes.

Those of you paying attention will know there’s a seismic shakeup next week. as the earning model will change from a distance-based model to a revenue-based model. 

Economy Class and Beyond will have our full view on this later in the week – but our advice aligns with Head for Points – if you have bookings to be made, it might be time to lock them in.

Because – I don’t honestly know how many miles you’ll earn in the future – no matter what British Airways says.
