EXPIRED This article relates to an offer or promotion which has now expired.
Just a couple of weeks ago we wrote a detailed analysis of three key good value ways to use British Airways Avios points to secure oneworld award tickets in the Asia Pacific region. Thankfully none of them actually involved flying on BA, which is a significant plus these days!
Where’s the value?
In case you missed it we talked about:
- Cheap tax-free domestic flight awards in Japan with JAL (here).
- Cheap Australia domestic and trans Tasman flight awards with Qantas (here).
- Good value Cathay Pacific award tickets across the region, including to Hong Kong and Bangkok from Singapore (here).
There were a few other gems in there too, like 10,000 Avios in Economy from Singapore to Colombo with Sri Lankan (KrisFlyer want 18,500 miles for the same route).
Do have a read of the full article if you’re interested.

British Airways occasionally offer a limited time bonus when you buy Avios directly from them (like most airlines, their regular purchase rates aren’t good value).

- A 35% bonus when you purchase 40,000 – 90,000 Avios
