Yes, but you need to be earning Avios to use the boost! I’m not accruing many Avios lately due to a combination of a dearth of flying, and most flights I have taken earn at the new (low) rate, being redemptions or being on other airlines. Not wanting to take out new credit cards at present, so I’m keeping an eye on other avenues of Avios earning.
