British Airways Club is the frequent-flyer program for British Airways.  It uses a reward currency called ‘Avios’. This article looks at what an Avios point is worth.

If you are new to collecting Avios, we suggest you start with the basics with our Beginner’s Guide to Collecting Avios.

If you are interested in earning Avios from credit cards, you should read this article comparing all the Avios-earning credit cards.
