More new Avios Suitcase badges = more free Avios

Avios Suitcase is a Facebook game that can be played by anyone with a Facebook and an avios.com (not ba.com) account. You earn points for completing a series of social media tasks.

If you have not already signed up, you can find out more in this article.

Note that if you are based outside the UK you cannot officially have an avios.com account.  You will need to use a made-up UK address.  DO use your correct name, email and date of birth. These need to match your BA account if you want to move these points across via ‘Combine My Avios’.

Yet more new ‘badges’ are now available for you to pick up.

Both are linked to the ‘Big Reward’ promotion – this means that there are now four ‘Suitcase’ badges promoting this game.

‘Big Reward Nomination Film’ requires you to say which city you can visit (in economy ….) if you win the ‘Big Reward’ competition.  The answer is New York.  It will earn you 15 Avios points.

The second new badge is called ‘Big Reward Fathers Day’.  You need to share a link which encourages people to share an Instagram picture, although you do not need to log into Instagram itself – just share the link via Facebook.  It will earn you a further 10 Avios.

There are now 15 badges on Avios Suitcase in total.  If you haven’t played it yet, you will pick up a few hundred Avios in return for 15 minutes or so of messing about.

Avios points from Avios Suitcase no longer post overnight but seem to go across in a sweep at the end of the month.
