Get double Avios on British Airways flights to Berlin and Hamburg

If you need to head over to Germany on business over the next few weeks, you may want to switch from Heathrow to the British Airways services from London City.

You will earn double Avios on BA services from London City to Berlin or Hamburg.

You must book by 31st May but can travel at any point until 31st August.

You MUST register in advance via this link.

The following booking classes count:

Club Europe – J, C, D, R

Euro Traveller – Y, B, H, K, M

Note that the cheapest non-refundable tickets are not included.  This promotion is unlikely to have much value to the leisure traveller.  This seems a bit tight, to be honest, given that we would only talking about doubling 125 Avios to 250 Avios in Euro Traveller.

If you click on the flight number shown on ba.com during the booking process, the booking class will be shown.

You must be a British Airways Executive Club member based in the UK, Ireland or Germany to take part.  Your ticket must also be issued in these countries – this could be a problem if your employer uses an offshore corporate travel management group.  I know of previous promotions where people lost bonuses because their tickets had unknowingly been issued in India.

Don’t forget to register here if you are interested.
