Celebrate with 25% off reward flights
One year ago we introduced Avios to the Executive Club. To celebrate our first year, we’re having a fantastic 25% off reward flights sale. This offer is an all cabin sale on British Airways to Zone 4 and beyond. All you have to do is book a reward flight between 14 and 19 November 2012, for travel before 31 May 2013, and you’ll need 25% fewer Avios.
If you don’t have enough Avios to book a flight to a Zone 4 or beyond you can always purchase more. You can also get 25% off an Avios & Money booking. Plus, if you book a reward flight with our partner airline, Iberia, you’ll get 25% off reward flights as well. It’s a fantastic way for all our Club Members to celebrate this occasion in style. So book now.

They're linking the promotion with the first birthday of Avios. You never know, it may spread.

How typical that this happens just after I book some long haul F trips using Avios

True - and as I'm Gold I don't even have to pay that. However, knowing my luck, I'll cancel with BA, go to rebook with Avios and they'll be goneOriginally Posted by Raffles

I think it's a 2-4-1.5, with the difference that 2-4-1s are once a year for most of us while this offer is potentially unlimited within the timeframe. Originally Posted by cornishsimon

You either cancel after you re book (providing you have the Avios) or you make sure the availability is there moments before you cancel, although slightly risky of course just in case some grabs the seats in those couple of minutes.Originally Posted by darthlemsip

Do GCH get the extra Y availibility they get on ba.com when booking on avios.com?
Avios.com scheme has no concept of status, even if it was shared (which it isn't, hence IB+ account and your BAEC account have different status).
You do get access to G bucket which you don't get on BAEC though.

Can anyone actually access avios.com? I have been unable to get the site up for around 10 days.
