Maximise your Avios, air miles and hotel points

Earn bonus Heathrow Rewards points on fashion purchases

Links on Head for Points may support the site by paying a commission.  See here for all partner links.

Heathrow Rewards is offering up to 5,000 bonus points when you buy clothing or luxury goods at the airport by 31st July.

Heathrow Rewards gives you 1 point for every £1 spent in Heathrow (1 per £10 on foreign exchange) or on Heathrow Express tickets (online bookings only).

Once you’ve earned 250 points you can exchange them for airline miles, including Avios and Virgin Points, or shopping vouchers.

Earn bonus Heathrow Rewards points on fashion

If you’re not a member of the scheme yet, you can find out how Heathrow Rewards works in this article.

Remember that Heathrow Rewards points convert 1 : 1 into Avios, Virgin Points, KrisFlyer, Asia Miles, Emirates Skywards and various other programmes, as well as 1 : 1p of Heathrow shopping vouchers. 

Pre-pandemic, regular transfer bonuses could add 50% – 100% to these numbers but we haven’t seen one of those since covid.

This offer is less generous than we have seen in previous years, although this offer is in theory aimed at ‘summer clothing’ and not high end fashion.

Here are the options:

  • Spend £50 and get double points at Accessorize (T2, T3, T4, & T5) & Superdry (T3) up to 5,000 points
  • Spend £150 and get double points at Case (T2, T3, T4, & T5), JD Sports (T2 & T5), Lacoste (T4), Aspinal of London (Reserve and Collect) and Kurt Geiger (T3 & T4) up to 5,000 points
  • Spend £300 and get double points at Reiss (T2 & T5), BOSS (T2, T3 & T5), Orlebar Brown (T5), Sunglass Hut (T2, T4 & T5), Paul Smith (T2, T3 & T5)  and Harrods (Fashion –  T2, T3, T4, & T5) up to 5,000 points

No registration is required for these offers. You are capped at 5,000 bonus points, although I suspect that Harrods is the only place on the list where you could get close to spending £5,000!

    Heathrow now realise they’ve got to try and bribe people to go shopping in the terminals !

  • Stuart says:

    Airport airside shopping baffles me, no matter where in the world. Do airports expect everyone is only going to spend £100s/£1000s at Prada, Gucci, Hermes etc? Passed through AMS yesterday and walked past the usual collection of these shops and all there empty, yet the terminal was packed. An aside from these you get a Boots and WH Smith for us plebs.

    • Matt says:

      If you’re going to make a high end / luxury purchase anyway might as well do it at the airport and save on VAT (albeit not a factor at Heathrow anymore but certainly for AMS).

      • Stuart says:

        It’s just the vast quantity of the very expensive shops being concentrated in worldwide airports. As if that is what passengers are buying pre-flight. At least it’s employment for shop assistants.

        • Jonathan says:

          It depends on what kind of airlines are primarily using the airport, one definitely isn’t going to see these types of shops if flying Luton or Stansted for instance, the likes of Dubai, one shouldn’t be at all surprised, if anything be surprised not to see these kinds of shops there.

          Airport shopping is very much all over the place

          • Rhys says:

            Heathrow T4 for example, with lots of Middle Eastern airlines, has a much higher concentration of luxury shopping than many of the other terminals.

  • ADS says:

    just be warned that Heathrow Rewards will close your account without warning if you don’t bother using it for a good while
