Avios Hotel Sale - Cash Glitch
 

As per Raffles' Blog http://www.headforpoints.com/2014/01...vios-bookings/

IC Budapest from £33 a night. lots more bargains to be had - All hints and tips are in the comments section on the blog so please don't flood the thread with answered questions!

While I appreciate the OP's desire to avoid the thread being flooded with questions, the key detail is that this is/was a deal for booking hotels in the following cities only at a reduced rate:
Vienna
Dubrovnik
Prague
Copenhagen
Berlin
Budapest
Istanbul
The Algarve

seems ba.com loads rates with hotels + car rentals. avios.com has only hotels, but i think you need to have a british address?

Avios Hotel Sale - Cash Glitch
 

by following the link on the page that the opportunity linked to, one could book just hotels. the offer is dead though.

No, you can still book top hotels for 1/2 price. Four Seasons / Mandarin Oriental do not go on sale like this very often!

the site ba.com seems to be giving hotel+car hire ,not just hotel alone.

Also not available for other cities other than those mentioned,

I dont want to book as I am not going to one of those cities and my redemption for other cities may be mucked up by this glitch.(rental care +hotel)

Thanks OP!

Booked a couple of hotels that suited my schedule. I noticed an annoying quirk on the vouchers BA issued, hotels I booked that included breakfast made no mention of that anywhere in the confirmation or in the voucher itself. Anyone have this too?

Cheers.

For me the voucher doesn't mention it but the email confirmation states it's included

Just re-checked but neither the e-mail confirmation nor booking voucher makes a mention of it. What I resorted to doing was to recreate the quote and then screenshot to show the matching rates.

Thanks anyways.

Does your hotel voucher show your address along with your name? I don’t live in UK but wanted to book this deal. So, I’ve create an Avios account using my friend’s address in London. But, if the UK address shows up in the hotel voucher, I might have a problem getting a visa.

Just the full name of you and your partner

My voucher doesn't mention breakfast and neither did my email confirmation. I went back to do another dummy booking and took a screenshot to show that breakfast was shown to be included at the point of room selection. Hope this is ok.

Anyone know if it's worth confirming with BA somehow? Breakfast is EUR25 per head where I'll be staying, so don't want yo be trying to sort this out between the hotel and BA during my stay.

I intend to call BA and sort this out before my stay, after this promo has been fixed or ends.

Haha.
