British Airways loyalty members can now book flights for under $2 using Avios points

British Airways Executive Club loyalty members are in for a treat with the airline’s latest update to its Avios part-payment service. Now, members can book any British Airways flight for just 1 pound ($1.24) plus Avios, allowing them to enjoy significant cash discounts on their bookings.

Previously, the discount offered through the Avios part-payment service varied depending on the route and time of booking. However, with this new change, all customers have the option to reduce the cash fare of their booking to just 1 pound, making it easier than ever to save money on flights.

This update also means that Executive Club members can now use their Avios to receive a cash discount on any seat booked, providing more flexibility and value for loyal customers. Additionally, members will still collect Avios and tier points on flights booked using cash and Avios, as well as on flights operated by American Airlines between the U.K. and North America, and British Airways codeshares.

While these new updates may seem like a great deal at first glance, it’s important to note that making a part-cash, part-points payment may not always offer the best value compared to standard award redemptions. However, the flexibility and savings offered through the Avios part-payment service are sure to be a popular option for many Executive Club members.

Overall, British Airways’ expansion of its Avios part-payment system is a welcome change for loyal customers looking to save on flights and earn rewards. Stay tuned for more updates and analysis on how to make the most of your points with British Airways.
