Reward Flight Saver Destinations
 
I know that BA RFS rates are only for flights under 2000 miles but I cant find a list of all the destinations that qualify. Does any one know if such a list exists or of an easy way to find all BA (ex London) routes under 2000 miles?

Also are there any destinations that are actually more than 2000 miles that still qualify as RFS.

Thanks

Basically any short haul destinations on BA and also DME.

Indeed ;-) but is there a list of them anywhere?

This post in the forum guide effectively has a list on the map:

Thanks EUPete I did find that post earlier but it also says that it is a "small sample of cities within reach of LHR" which I took to mean that it is not complete.

I just have a felling that there must be a complete list somewhere but maybe there isn't.

BA.com's low fare finder, set to Europe, lists nearly every destination except those with only an occasional service

Thanks That is useful but it misses Africa destinations, or are the excluded because they are not in Europe although under 2000 miles e.g RAK

The North African ones that have ET pricing (e.g. <£100 e/w) are, the rest including Egypt aren't.

What are you hoping to use the list for?

Many lists won't be completely up-to-date - for example just last week BA announced new service to Almeria.

Your best bet may actually be the BA network map in HighLife, although that sometimes has errors and won't feature LEI this month.

Basically everything in Europe and on/near the Med is RFS except CAI, TLV, BEY and AMM.

Have a look at the oneworld site and the where we fly section. Just select BA and do not include connections or codeshares. In terms of starting point you need to look at LHR/LGW/LCY and also look at the new regional departure points for the BA cityflyer routes (MAN, BHX, STN, EDI etc.).

Where do you want to go? Are you trying to find a list for a reason?

I was originally searching for the most distant locations that I could get to with RFS but could not find anything so I looked for a complete list.

I am also trying to get to the middle east as cheaply as possible using a 241 voucher Beruit or Tel Aviv would be fine but they are both over 2000 miles so wont be RFS (unless they are!!) which was why I was also asking of there are any locations that are over 2000 that are still RFS.

Well the answer to the first question is DME LCA as noted in the post below].

Beirut or TLV are long haul and not RFS. I guess the closet you could get is LCA or ATH on RFS.

Brilliant many thanks for posting.

At the risk of digging up an old thread, I'm trying to book a RFS on the Quimper route out of LCY - however one of the legs is operated by Eastern Airways for BA Cityflyer for British Airways. Does this mean it is not RFS compatible or do I need to call the contact centre to make it so?
