2000 extra Avios on Xmas flights

Heard mutterings that WW is playing Santa and dishing out free Avios prezzies to those choosing to fly over the Xmas period.

Fuller info to be made available in the next 24 hours apparantly..

[MENTION=29245]Raffles[/MENTION] mentioned it earlier this week. Let's see what they come up with. I have a revenue flight and an Avios flight between Christmas and New Year.

Well, I have 10 sectors on BA metal between 27/12 and 02/01, but 2 of them are 125-plated RFS tickets the rest are 001-...

So I guess my Xmas pressie from WW will be a big fat zero !!

That was from a different promotion.

My 2000 Avios hit today - Did yours?

I have no idea what they are for or relate to other than the mutterings outlined in the original post as I have not had the email thus far......

oooh .... I have received 2000 Avios for something. Flying 22/23 Dec, CPT-LGW-JER ... is that Christmas, or something else?

As our booking is on a 2-4-1, it has to be the Xmas gift, rather than double-Avios. And iWife has received 2000 as well

Nothing (yet), but I have a reward flight, which might not qualify.

We have two reward flights (separate bookings) over Christmas and just received 2000 Avios points for each traveller ahead of travelling - though only once, not for each booking!

I have an open-jaw booking (LHR-VIE in Dec, GIB-LHR in Sept) with the LHR flight on New Year's Eve. I reduced the cost by 20 by using 3,000 Avios, so I imagine this means my flight is not eligible...no bonus in my account anyway.

I guess I'll have to drown my sorrows with a T3 lounge crawl on New Year's Eve!
