British Airways Holidays offers up to 20,000
British Airways Holidays offers up to 20,000 bonus Avios for bookings made by September 1, 2026, with the amount based on the package length.
British Airways Holidays is offering a bonus of up to 20,000 Avios for holiday packages booked by Tuesday, September 1, 2026. According to the travel website Head for Points, travelers must register on a specific page of the British Airways website before making their booking to qualify.
Bonus Avios are awarded after the holiday is completed, with travel required by August 31, 2027. The amount of the bonus depends on the duration of the booked package.
How the bonus works
The offer applies to both 'Flight + Hotel' and 'Flight + Car' bookings. The bonus is tiered based on the number of nights in the package.
| Package Duration | Bonus Avios |
|---|---|
| 3 to 6 nights | 5,000 |
| 7 to 9 nights | 10,000 |
| 10 or more nights | 20,000 |
For hotel bookings, the duration is based on the number of hotel nights. For car bookings, it is based on the rental period.
The 'triple dip' and card benefits
This bonus is in addition to the standard earning structure for British Airways Holidays bookings. The company states that British Airways Club members collect 1 bonus Avios for every £1 spent on flight and hotel or car packages.
A further benefit comes from using a specific credit card. Payments made with a British Airways American Express Premium Plus Card earn double Avios from American Express, resulting in 3 Avios per £1. Head for Points notes this card benefit is only available on payments made by October 6, 2026.
This combination creates what the source calls a 'triple dip': Avios from the holiday package itself, from the credit card spend, and the standard Avios from the flight. With the current promotion, it becomes a 'quadruple dip' including the one-off bonus.
Tier points for British Airways Club status are also earned at a reportedly more attractive rate than booking flights alone.
Payment flexibility
Booking with British Airways Holidays offers cash flow advantages. The source reports that customers only need to pay a deposit at the time of booking. The balance is not due until five to seven weeks before departure.
This structure can provide a form of cancellation flexibility. If a traveler changes their mind, they can choose not to make the final payment, forfeiting only the deposit instead of the full cost of a non-refundable flight-only booking.
The source highlights a trade-off for those with the Premium Plus card. To secure the double Avios benefit from the card, which ends on October 6, 2026, a traveler must pay in full before that date, forgoing the option to pay just a deposit now.
