Maximise your Avios, air miles and hotel points

Important dates for your diary – offers about to close which you shouldn’t miss

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

The aim of this feature is to summarise flight, hotel and points offers that are ending soon.  Everything listed below has been covered on HfP in recent weeks, but years of experience of running offers for HfP readers has made it very clear that a large proportion like to leave things to the last minute ….

It pulls together the different deals mentioned in our daily articles and on our Top Avios Points Earning Offers, Top Hotel Bonus Points Offers and Top UK Credit Card Offers pages.

Miles and points offers about to end

    “Sunday 20th July – Last day to activate auto-convert from Tesco Clubcard points to Virgin Points to receive 5,000 bonus Virgin Points”

    make sure you take screenshots of the rules … as the 5,000 bonus points probably won’t post automatically … and Virgin will probably try and say that you haven’t met the criteria …

    be prepared to push and push to get your bonus points!
