Free 1000 Avios for creating BD account
 
Not sure if this has been posted but create a BMI account with code 1JA1KD, get 1000 points, transfer to BA Avios. New BMI accounts only.

And then, earn BMI miles instead of Avios when you stay at Hiltons. For Hilton properties, except for Home2 Suites, you can earn 1000 BMI miles per night, up to a maximum of three nights per stay; depending on which Hilton property, you'll only earn 100-500 Avios per stay. Or, in other words, BMI's earning ratio can be as much as 30 times better than BA's.

Of course, you can then transfer BMI to Avios at a 1:1 ratio.

The Hilton/BMI partnership will end at some point, probably when the current contract between the two runs out. No one knows when that will be. In the meantime, BMI's earning rate with Hilton is about as generous as it gets with HHonors.

Did this before, it's instant. From time I started filling out the account info to 1k in my account took less then five minutes.

Go to your BA account and combine points from BMI. Takes 2 minutes. Points transfer instantly.

While trying to access the BMI website, I get redirected to the BA site. Am I missing something? :confused:

When I go to BMI's website I get British Airways and the only option is Executive Club. Where can you get a BMI account?
