Question How many Avios?
Hi, does anyone know how many Avios I'll get for a W Class (Discount Economy) return on Aer Lingus from Manchester to Dublin. I'm not sure from looking at the website.

Thanks!

In my experience none at all. I've never ever received Avios for my EI flights when in discounted Y.

I got 25 for a LHR-DUB in discount Y, the least for an eligible flight I've ever had.

Executive Club -> Collecting Avios -> Other Airline Partners

25% of miles flown for W, or 25% of the minimum avios of 300.

I should have probably queried it, but life's too short for such a pittance.

Thanks all - I'll just wait and see if anything turns up. I'm not going to lose any sleep over it if they don't as its so few.

Quick update. I received the grand total of 75 Avios each way for these flights :-)

Have you decided how you're going to spend them yet? Maybe an upgrade to F on the new A380...?

I thought maybe I'd take the whole family to SYD in F :-)

Go reserve your copy of diablo 3 to get your 4800 points

http://www.headforpoints.com/2013/07...iii-purchases/

I preordered the PS3 and Xbox version - will put it back on ebay and am prepared to lose some cash in it - but I think its well worth it - great game too - for about 2 weeks if you like american RPGs

I've got 2 for each console coming - when it was 2040 CC points each.

Just need a conversion bonus once this quarter ends to maximise Avios.

That offer has gone already. And there are reports of people who ordered more than 1 copy (even one XBOX and one PS3) having an order cancelled and points cancelled.
