BA Launch More Avios Only Flights
British Airways has launched another batch of ‘Avios Only Flights’ where every seat on selected flights is opened up for Avios booking. The first batch went on sale last month to Sharm El Sheikh in November 2023 and Geneva in February 2024. These sold out in less than 24 hours so if the new flights are of interest don’t wait around the book them…
What are the Avios Only Flights?
Unlike with the first batch of Avios-only flights, BA has released a dedicated outbound & inbound flight to each destination. You aren’t required to book onto both, you can book, for example, the outbound on the Avios-only flight and the inbound on another flight with Avios availability. The following flights/dates have been released as Avios Only Flights…
Route | Cost | Outbound | Inbound |
London Gatwick to Las Palmas | Economy – £35 + 18,500 Avios Business – £50 + 35,500 Avios | 15 November 2023 | 22 November 2023 |
London Gatwick to Lanzarote | Economy – £35 + 18,500 Avios Business – £50 + 35,500 Avios | 4 December 2023 | 11 December 2023 |
London Heathrow to Barcelona | Economy – £35 + 16,500 Avios Business – £50 + 31,500 Avios | 29 March 2024 | 7 April 2024 |
London Heathrow to Nice | Economy – £35 + 10,500 Avios Business – £50 + 19,500 Avios | 29 March 2024 | 7 April 2024 |
London Gatwick to Tenerife | Economy – £35 + 21,500 Avios Business – £50 + 36,700 Avios | 29 March 2024 | 7 April 2024 |
There are no special conditions or pricing for these flights they are priced exactly the same as a regular Avios booking and can be amended/cancelled up to 24 hours before flying. (£35 per person fee or the RFS fee paid, whichever is lower.) You can also use a British Airways American Express 2-4-1 voucher or a Barclays Avios Upgrade voucher if you wish.
To book visit the British Airways website as normal and search for an Avios flight on the above routes/dates.

It’s early days for BA’s Avios Only Flights and whilst it’s good to see new flights being added what would be really great is to see some long-haul options thrown into the mix! What do you think of BA’s Avios Only Flights? Have you booked one?
