British Airways Executive Club Members booking flights from October 2023 will collect Avios based on the cost of their ticket.

In a move to offer a more consistent and transparent system, the airline announced in July that the amount of Avios collected will be based on the cost of a ticket, instead of the distance of the flight, for flights booked from 18 October 2023.

For the first time, the change also includes the ability to collect Avios on eligible ancillary purchases, including pre-paid selection, upgrades, and excess baggage.

The investment in the airline’s frequent flyer programme forecasts that 20 per cent more Avios will be issued to the overall member base, with most Members either collecting more, or the same amount, under the new model.

Members booking flights from October 2023 will collect the following quantity of Avios depending on their Tier status:

• Blue members will receive 6 Avios per qualifying* £1 spent
• Bronze members will receive 7 Avios per qualifying £1 spent
• Silver members will receive 8 Avios per qualifying £1 spent
• Gold members will receive 9 Avios per qualifying £1 spent

This new model will also apply to flights marketed by Iberia** and American Airlines.

There are a large number of ways that Members can collect Avios in day-to-day life, including spending on the British Airways American Express Credit Card, travelling with Uber, converting Nectar points and shopping on the British Airways Avios eStore. With more than 1,500 outlets to select from, savvy shoppers can earn Avios from any purchase that they make when visiting www.shopping.ba.com.For more information and full terms and conditions, visit www.ba.com/executiveclub

Notes

*Qualifying costs include:

• The base fare and carrier-imposed-charges on commercial tickets any British Airways, American Airlines and Iberia marketed flights
• Upgrades (online or airport), pre-paid seating charges or excess baggage on any British Airways and Iberia marketed and operated flights

**Please note that the amount of Avios collected on Iberia marketed flights will follow the Iberia Plus proposition. See www.ba.com/avioschanges for more information.

For any flights marketed and operated by other airlines, customers will continue to collect Avios according to each airline’s model of accrual.
