British Airways have just announced their Christmas sale.

Half price Avios reward flights for 90 long haul destinations in economy.

To be clear, the Avios required are half the usual number, taxes and fees are unchanged.

Book before 17 December 2017 for flights 4 January – 30 June 2018 from Heathrow or Gatwick in World Traveller.

Full details here.

The main MSE article on boosting Avios can be found here.

    Capetown, South Africa and Kingston, Jamaica for those who haven't memorised all the codes.:p

    Try looking for revenue flights and then reduce the cost by using Avios. Can sometimes work out cheaper, plus you will earn some Avios for the flight.

  • Even at that price I wouldn't book long haul economy on Avios.

    Last year it was also from Manchester, where they do a code share with AA. We were able to pay partly cash and partly points, making a big saving.

    Damn mad that we won’t this January!
