Unlock the Secret British Airways Routes Everyone’s Scrambling to Book with Avios—Are You Missing Out?
4. Use multi-city or open-jaw itineraries
If availability is tight, consider flying into one city and out of another. British Airways allows open-jaw bookings on Avios redemptions, which gives you more flexibility to find seats. It might feel a little less convenient than you’d like, but it’s definitely better than not getting Avios seats at all!
5. Book now, tweak later
One of my favourite points hacks is that BA lets you cancel Avios bookings for £35 per person or less (you may just forfeit your taxes if they’re lower). That means, for a minimal cost, if you spot availability—book it, then adjust or cancel if plans change. That’s certainly not the case with cash bookings – where you can lose the entire payment.
