Maximise your Avios, air miles and hotel points
There are two American Express cards that let you earn Avios directly: the free British Airways American Express card and the paid-for British Airways Premium Plus card.
If you are committed to British Airways, the Premium Plus Amex card is your best choice. It comes with a 30,000 Avios sign-up bonus and a 2-4-1 companion voucher that could save you up to 200,000 Avios on your next flight redemption.
This article explains how to use the BA 2-4-1 companion voucher you earn on the British Airways American Express cards.
