Just a few more updates on this

* QR confirms its Avios will be fully transferrable to BAEC (for example), allowing frequent flyers to pool all their Avios into a single account
* the airline also promises there will be no subsequent revaluation – aka the dreaded devaluation – on redemption rates after it moves from Qmiles to Avios: "There is no revaluation. QR is not changing its value grid."
* QR confirms that its Avios will be redeemable on A380 F (just in case some were wondering if that might not be the case)
* QR and BA will increase the number of Avios-based reward seats across their flights, to accomodate an expected jump in demand once both airlines are sharing a ‘common currency’.
* Asked "Will QR redemption bookings have the same flexibility if made with Avios as they do today when made with Qmiles?" – the spokesperson says "Yes, the great value proposition is upheld and there are no change in pricing or fare rules."
