My question is it possible to fly the roundtrip on the same aircraft without a visa etc. Google tells me no visa is needed but I figured if anyone had first hand experience of such a thing then here would be the place to find them.

It works out at roughly 9K OB points plus £88 outbound, 30K Avios and £25 back which if it does work seems to me good value and something different rather than kicking my heels in London

Thanks
