Yes maybe not exciting or enticing but it
might be handy for those just short for an uppgrade etc. who have already purchased their annual allowance and need or want to top up their account.
However, the general sale of the Avios 30% bonus offer is still on via thier website (see purchasing Avios) and I cannot see anything that excludes
any BAEC member from purchasing them. This ends on the 28th of October for this 'general' sale'.
So, it looks like it is a targeted offer regarding the e-mail I posted
if you have already purchased over 30,000. and again nothing to say it is just for UK residents.
For folks info, the reset allowance runs until the end of the year
but the 'bonus promotional period' (30%) ends on the 28th of October.
Here is the e-mail and hope that clarifies things a bit better.
