Avios in 2 minutes
Last checked:
⚡ Quick answer
- Avios are the points of British Airways, Iberia, Aer Lingus and a few more airlines.
- You collect them on money you were going to spend anyway.
- Count 1 Avios as roughly 1p. Spend them only when they're worth more.
I fly back home to Argentina a lot 🇦🇷. Those flights are long, and expensive 💸.
Avios are the points of British Airways, Iberia and Aer Lingus. Set things up once and you collect them on money you were spending anyway. At some point, those points pay for a business class flight home 🛫. Yes, business. With the flat bed.
This is how I do it.
