Redeeming Avios posts

Be gentle with me people, this is my first post!

Does anybody have any ideas as to what value avios points are when redeemed against a first choice holiday???

I've got over 50,000 to redeem.

Thanks

    50000 Avios is about £50 - Roughly their face value in clubcard points

    Depending on where you want to go, you may get better value by using Avios for flights and then using remaining Avios for discount against hotel/car hire
    Everything will be alright in the end so, if it’s not yet alright, it means it’s not yet the end

    I find best value from short-haul European flights or upgrades after paying cash for premium economy long-haul.

    I don't know the answer to your specific question, but when looking at hotels and car hire they work out at about 6p per point. This is a very rough guide only though.
