In the last little while, I've been able to build up a nice pot of 220,000 Avios and a 2-4-1 voucher. The next bit of the puzzle is working out what to use it for.
Having done some basic research, I was keen to look at going all out on a First redemption on the newer 787-9 8 seat layout. Clearly somewhere like the Seychelles would be fantastic, but I'm not certain that BA open up First redemptions on that route?
Assuming they don't, is there an 'easy' way of knowing which routes do have reward seat availability in First?
Both BA's and other sites checkers seem to be defunct for Seychelles.
Thanks in advance all, and I look forward to adding more to the thread.
baredemptionfinder.com and the BA app will help you check which routes have first redemptions available. SEZ is a blind spot for these general search systems so you have to use the app or BA.com to try to make a booking in order to find availability.
Good luck- it’s a beautiful place and definitely worth venturing off Mahé.
