Heathrow Rewards, the loyalty scheme for shopping at Heathrow, will today launch a 50% bonus on transfers to Avios.
The offer should be clearly flagged on the Avios page of the Heathrow Rewards site when you log in. If it isn’t showing, wait a couple of hours as it may not yet be live.
This offer ONLY applies to Avios and does not apply to:
Emirates Skywards
Virgin Flying Club
Etihad Guest
Lufthansa Miles & More
…… although there is an existing 50% transfer bonus to Lufthansa which is still running for another week.
The bonus applies to all transfers to any of the Avios schemes (AerClub, British Airways Executive Club, avios.com) made before 30th September.
The minimum transfer is 250 Heathrow Rewards points which, with the bonus, will get you 375 Avios. The main alternative to taking miles is waiting until you have 500 points and exchanging them for a £5 Heathrow shopping voucher.
Do NOT convert Emirates Skywards or Lufthansa Miles & More miles into Heathrow Rewards in order to send them on to Avios, as that isn’t possible. Transfers into Heathrow Rewards from Emirates and Lufthansa can only be used for shopping vouchers.
This is why the deal is especially interesting:
You can currently earn 3,000 Heathrow Rewards points by opening an account and spending £150 in one day.
This is a very generous offer – as good as it has ever got with Heathrow Rewards.
You can combine these two deals as long as you do your qualifying spend this month.
Open a Heathrow Rewards account, spend £150 in a day and you will receive your 3,000 points. Convert these to Avios before 30th September and you will receive 4,500 points!
The link to the 3,000 point sign-up offer is on the avios.com website here.

About Head for Points
I can’t see the info for the £150 in one day bonus – where is in on the page? Is it still live?
Saw it in the T and Cs!
Do you know if purchasing tickets on the Heathrow Express counts towards the £150 spend?
I guess so, but it is £150 in a day and who knows when they date the credit? Purchase day? Travel day? Few days after purchase?
