Book by April 19th and receive 100% Bonus on Avios on your next 6 flights
British Airways recently dropped the mic when they announced their incredible new business class – I wrote an entire piece on why it’s not just a seat, but rather an indication of brand reinvention – and now we have a fantastic new promo.
British Airways will double your Avios on your next 6 flights as long as you book by April 19th, 2019. You don’t have to complete your flights by then, they’ll actually give you the entire rest of the year to complete your travel, and you don’t even have to fly on British Airways own planes. They have a list of partners that they’ll also give you the 100% bonus when you fly with them.
The details
- Go here to register
- Book your flights between now and April 19th, 2019
- Fly before December 31, 2019
- Get a 100% bonus on your first 6 flights, and then UNLOCK a new bonus for sequent flights.
- If your US to Europe flight has a BA flight number but is operated by AA, Iberia, and Finnair you’ll also earn the bonus miles
Here are the qualifying flight details :
A Qualifying Flight is either a one-way (single sector) or a return flight (two sectors) between the point of departure and final destination with no scheduled change of aircraft that must be booked after the Member has registered. Members can receive 100% bonus Avios on up to six Qualifying Flights. A Qualifying Flight is (i) a BA prefix on any selling class (excluding Reward flights or upgrades using Avios) or cabin on any BA operated service, or (ii) any flight included as part of a British Airways Holiday package, and (iii) a BA prefix on a transatlantic flight operated by British Airways (BA), American Airlines (AA), Iberia (IB) or Finnair (AY) between Europe and North America. The promotion also applies to travel on domestic flights within the UK and southern Africa (operated by Comair), Sunnair and CityFlyer. Any other flights operated by any other BA franchises, codeshare partners or oneworld alliance members will not qualify.

We keep an up to date spreadsheet that lists the best ever offers: You can find that spreadsheet here.
Historically 80k is a very, very good offer and hit in both 2022 and 2023. In 2021, we saw the offer hit an all time high of 100k. Who knows if that will ever come back.
Main Cast:
Cards that earn flexible points and should be used on the bulk of your purchases.
Supporting Cast:
Cards that earn fixed points in the currency of the airline/hotel and can not be transferred at attractive rates. These cards yield benefits that make it worth keeping, but not necessarily worth putting a lot of your everyday spend on.

If you carry this card alongside Chase’s cashback cards like the Chase Freedom Flex® and Chase Freedom Unlimited® or the business versions: Ink Business Cash® , Ink Business Unlimited® you can combine the points into Preferred account and transfer into hotel and airline partners
