Asking for a family member with no 2-4-1 vouchers who is looking for the best value Avios redemption to for a London-JFK return next year. They are looking for 3 seats and have around 370,000 points to spend. I’ve been looking at the points + miles and the Reward Flight Saver options but it’s hard to know which offers the best value/use of these points for them. Any thoughts?

Start with the basic premise that 370,000 is worth £3,700, so each ticket will be £1230 + “tax”.

Then be mindful if you are fairly flexible with your dates an HBO ticket on BA can come in at under £400, and that there’s a very civilised American daytime flight at 10:15 if you don’t like the thought of overnight economy.

Thank you most helpful
