Well, yesterday I received my first (and naturally, it’s an “Original”):
Offer:
- 10,000 Bonus Avios for a BA Holiday of 7 nights or more.
- 5,000 Bonus Avios for a BA Holiday of up to 6 nights.
Conditions:
- Register online
- Book before 23rd July
- Travel between 7th July and 31st October 2025
Observations:
The conditions are very restrictive and the bonus points represent rather paltry sums, so I don’t find the offer at all compelling. I would look much more favourably at an offer involving Tier Point multipliers, but this one doesn’t do much to incentivise booking with BA IMHO.
Honestly they're idiots. Yes yes I know it's about monetisation of Avios. But frankly I never gave a fig about Avios. It was only ever TP. Avios is just an occasionally useful discount mechanism.
