tesco clubcard airmiles?

am sorry if this is in wrong place, if so can someone move me please? basically i purchased one of tose deals through kgb for a weeks holiday in spain to take between now and march. i need to get to either alicante or almeira airport coming from london, prefer luton or stansted. would also like it to be around the 18th feb which is my birthday. i have had a quick check and seem to be able to do the above including 2 pieces of luggage and insurance for 2 people. i was wondering though how these tesco air miles works. i have about £60 which would add up to approx £240 but firstly have no idea how many miles it is from luton to alicante and secondly have no idea how to change these vouchers for the tickets? or would i be better off just trying to get a good deal for flights elsewhere?

    THink I understand what you are saying here. Are you saying you want to convert your Tesco Clubcard vouchers to Airmiles? The miles will be then credited to your account within 28 days after converting Clubcard vouchers to Airmiles.

    Best also if you check your Airmiles statement if you have one. 1,500 points should get you to any Zone 2 destination and I'm pretty sure that should be OK for where you're heading to if you have this many.

    You could also try calling Airmiles customer services on 01925 848 619 if you need any further information.

    Don't forget that the Airmiles reward scheme is to be revamped which will means travellers having to pay taxes and charges when redeeming flights.

    The new scheme however launches on 16 November, so travellers can still book using Airmiles in their current form until 15 December for travel within 12 months. Only appears valid to existing Airmiles account holders though.

    Try calling Airmiles customer services as suggested above.
