    72-hour flash sale now on

    Booking a holiday has just gotten even better… Enjoy Aer Lingus flights, seats and bags using 50% less Avios this weekend only!

    So whether you want to explore magical Christmas markets, relax on the beach or re-discover your favourite city, it’s a fantastic time to book.

    Use your Avios to pay for all or some of the cost of your flight – it’s up to you. Plus, you’ll still earn Avios and Tier Credits on these flash sale flights, so it’s a win-win!

    Here’s how it works:
    Log in to your AerClub account
    Select the flight of your choice on AerLingus.com or the Aer Lingus App*
    Proceed to payment to see and select your discount. For example, a €29.99 fare is usually 4,725 Avios. However, you can book that flight for just 2,365 Avios this weekend. The Avios amount shown includes the discount.
    Don’t wait around – log in and book by this Sunday, 15 October 2023!

    It took me a while to understand, but this is the ‘Pay with Avios’ option rather than the fixed reward chart. When Rob did his article earlier this year, he got somewhere around 0.59p per Avios. A quick check today suggests somewhere around 1.1p per Avios is on offer (a little less if you pay fully in Avios, and a little more if you want to pay mainly cash).
