My avios balance is 600k at the moment, peaked 1.5m during Covid; but I have done quite a few trips since them (Maldives, Colombia, Egypt and two trips to Asia, all in business for two adults). I still don’t consider myself avios rich, since I book with cash most of my short hauls (I think it is better using them for long haul and don’t mind flying economy in short flights). I would consider myself avios rich the day I don’t check the cash fares before redeeming avios for all my trips.
