Don’t forget double British Airways Executive Club tier points

If the holiday (‘flight and hotel’, or ‘flight and car’ package) you book is for five or more nights, and you complete travel before the end of June 2025, Executive Club members will receive double tier points on their flights.

This is a fantastic opportunity to earn or retain status in Executive Club. We covered this offer in more details in our article here.

There are two things to note about the double tier points offer:

• you must book flights which carry a British Airways flight number – codeshare flights are acceptable but only if your booking shows a BAXXXX flight number
• whilst your booking must contain at least five nights of hotel or car rental, your overall stay can be longer

This offer is so generous that you could earn Silver status in British Airways Executive Club – which is enough for free seat selection and lounge access – with just two short breaks.

Longer European flights such as Athens or Malta earn 160 tier points return in Club Europe, which doubles to 320 tier points under this offer. Do two of those and you’re over the 600 tier point threshold for Silver!

Full details of the ‘double tier points’ offer can be found on the British Airways Holidays website here.

Why book with British Airways Holidays?

As well as making a saving on the cost of booking your flight and hotel separately (in some cases, a package may be less than a standalone flight!), there are some other important benefits when you book via British Airways Holidays:

• you only need to pay a deposit now with the balance not due until 5-7 weeks before travel – this is a real benefit compared to a ‘flight only’ booking where you need to pay upfront
• you earn 1 bonus Avios for every £1 spent at BA Holidays – for clarity, this is on top of the usual Avios earned from your flights
• you earn double Avios (3 per £1) on your payment to BA Holidays if you use a British Airways Premium Plus American Express credit card
• as we covered above, you can earn double tier points on your flights if you stay for 5+ nights and travel before the end of June 2025

You can also use Avios to pay or part-pay at BA Holidays – see our article here. You can part-pay with Avios alongside the extra savings available in the sale.

These British Airways sale deals must be booked by Thursday 11th July to take advantage of the discounts. To find out more and book, visit the British Airways Sale site here.
