Bits: bonus Heathrow Rewards, avios.com and kulula.com, Birmingham to NYC bonus

News in brief:

5 Heathrow Rewards points per £1 with parking

Heathrow Rewards is running a special deal with Official Heathrow Parking for the next few weeks.

You will receive 5 Heathrow Rewards points for every £1 spent, compared to the usual 1 point per £1.  If you convert those to Avios, that works out at 5 Avios points per £1.

You need to book via the Official Heathrow Parking website and book by 22nd March, for parking completed by 23rd March.  The offer is not showing on the parking website but was emailed by Heathrow Rewards.

Avios.com partners with kulula.com

avios.com has announced a new partnership with budget airline kulula.com.  You will earn 3 Avios for every Rand 10 you spend with them.

This is not as bizarre as you might imagine.  There is a South African version of the avios.com programme and Kulula is owned by Comair, the British Airways franchise partner in SA.

ALL cash booking classes count.  Full details and the link to register can be found here.
