How can I spend my Avios?

As the currency of the Executive Club, Avios open up a world of possibilities. You can spend them on reward flights with British Airways and our oneworld® partners and for one-cabin upgrades with us, Iberia and American Airlines. The amount of Avios you need will depend on your destination and class of travel.

Your Avios can take you all over the world. Provided there is availability, you can spend them for one-way or return reward flights with British Airways and with our oneworld partners. You can also use them for one-cabin upgrades with us, Iberia and American Airlines.
 
All British Airways fares in World Traveller Plus and Club World, apart from reward flights, can be upgraded using Avios. Only fully flexible tickets (Y, B, H fares) in World Traveller are eligible. Selected fares with American Airlines and Iberia can be upgraded with Avios too. Please see the ‘About reward flights and upgrades’ page for full details.

You’ll be pleased to know there are no blackout dates on British Airways flights, so the earlier you book, the better chance you have of getting the flight you want. Checking again nearer the time can pay off, as more seats often become available nearer to departure.
