  Re Hilton. View from the Wing is reporting that Hilton has repaired the glitch that will give you 1000 points for changing your password. New deadline is 25 March. I will wait a few days before doing mine just to be sure.

    Yes, I’m guessing he got the info from Erin’s post on FT (she’s the Hilton rep to FT) confirming it was all sorted now – I’ve done my password change 🙂

  Anybody had their 1000 hhonors bonus points for updating password?

  KLM has some sort of premium economy seats you can select for a fee online. Cannot recall details but I thought prices were not too bad considering what BA charges for WTP.

  The Iberia promotion does not appear under the “My promotions” section of my newly created Iberia Plus account. Any step of the process I am missing?

  Re: the KLM – what’s more interesting is that if you search out of AMS to SIN there are some great deals to be had – found business class on 1st July, returning on 14th July for c.£1300 – not as great as the Tokyo £900 deals (thanks again for that got back last week :)); but still worth a look…

    Hi Rich. Did I miss the Tokyo deal? Where was this?

      Sadly last year….

        Raffles has just let me know that Qatar would be an even better deal – same dates AMS to SIN just over 1600 EUR; and Hemz Tokyo on those dates would be just under 1650 EUR out of AMS

          Presumably, the AMS – SIN deal with KLM is direct, though, which some prefer over the stop in Qatar.

          Think of the BA tier points though – 560 return – plus all the Krug you can drink whilst waiting for your connection in Doha!

  Anyone happen to know if IB award the bonus avios even if you book a flight for someone else?

  • Conor McCully says:

    I would like to know the same. If not, I might just make two bookings – one from my IB account and the other from my wifes account.

    I phoned them and they said as long as I registered, logged in and bought a flight I should get the points. I asked because while I logged in, I credited my flight to my BAEC account so that I earn at their higher rates; but I still wanted to gain the bonus. I didn’t ask your particular question but I think it would still go to whoever registered, logged in and bought a flight, regardless who it’s for.

      Thanks for that! Conor

  If you booked a Hilton or Accour hotels through Kaligo.com would you still get there respective reward points as well as the Avois points from Kaligo.com?

  • shd says:

    13 Mar13 March 08:58

    No, you won’t earn points or stay credit if you book through a third-party.

  Is it possible to book a BA flight through Iberia and get the bonus avios, even if the destination is not in Spain?

  • Danny says:

    Re the Iberia offer. Yes you can book your flights to anywhere as long as it is via its website. I tend to book a one-way BA short haul flight to Europe e.g. Amsterdam, depending which leg is the cheapest at the time. As Iberia tends to have this offer once every 2-3 months, I book the other leg when it is on again, or use a reward flight.

• David says:

  If you book on iberia.com are your status points that you receive pooled with BA status points or separate? Obviously this would be a downside of this promotion if you normally fly BA?

  • Alan says:

    No they’re totally separate schemes, they just share Avios as a rewards currency which is transferable between the schemes. You can’t move status points between them.
