What can I use Avios for?
Members collect reward points called Avios when they fly with British Airways and its oneworld® partner airlines. They are also able to collect Avios with a range of travel, shopping and lifestyle partners including hotels, car hire, parking and currency exchange.
Members can then spend their Avios on flights, upgrades, hotels, car hire and other travel rewards.
Flights that are booked using Avios are called reward flights. Members can take reward flights with British Airways, Iberia and our oneworld® and other partner airlines, wherever there’s availability. They pay Avios plus a cash amount to cover the taxes, fees and carrier charges.
If they don’t have enough Avios for their chosen flight, Members can purchase Avios or pay a cash amount to reduce the number of Avios required.
If Members have collected any Avios in the past 12 months, they can get an even better deal on flights within Europe with Reward Flight Saver. They pay Avios and a flat fee of £1 for return Euro Traveller flight.
As well as purchasing reward seats outright, customers can also use their Avios to save money on flights, called Avios part payment.
If Members change their mind about a flight, they won’t lose their Avios as changes or cancellations can be made up to 24 hours before a flight for a fee.
Avios don’t expire, as long as Members collect, use or purchase at least one Avios every 36 months.
As well as Avios, Members can collect Tier Points when they fly to help them move through the Club tiers and enjoy more benefits. The more you fly the more benefits you can enjoy. This includes lounge access, priority check in and boarding and free seat selection, depending on their tier.
