    But will it be eligible for TPs?!

    Any chance they have had un unexpected drop off in BA Exec club members booking holiday packages? I wonder if they can figure out why?

    If it was 10k TPs then I’d likely agree with you but it’s only avios so no.

    Could be a reaction to a softening of bookings or more likely a “let’s just toss out an offer not many people will take up”

    The offer period is limited to a 3 month period when many people will have already booked their trips.

    And the minimum number of nights – 6 for 5k and 7 for 10k – will also restrict the numbers taking it up further.

    Plus it’s only for European holidays.

    Just booked BA flights yesterday, seeing this I have gone for cancellation online (just about 23 hours since booking) so hopefully get the full refund and then be able to book flight + hotel booking. Current prices of flight + hotel via BA are similar to my flight only + separate hotel booking to better to get it as package via BA Holidays.

    On Monday I booked a 7 night British Airways holiday for two to Rhodes in September. Today I receive this email. Thanks BA.

    It’s 5k for holidays up to 6 nights. I can’t find any mention of a minimum.

    Up to 6 nights for the 5000 points? Not 6 night minimum.

    Using customise my trip, one can even just book one night hotel stay with flights and qualify for 5000 Avios and if it’s per person depending on price you can effectively get one night stay for free as you get back 10000 Avios back (£100 in value).
    Not sure this will be profitable for BA, as it will also include free check in bags as BA Holiday booking which otherwise cost even more!

    Came here to look for the same answer as above, Is this limited to lead booker. Had a scroll through T&C’s and nothing jumped out specifying it was just for the booker.

    T&C include this:
    5.1. Eligible Participants who pay for and travel on any Qualifying Holiday, will be awarded the bonus Avios after the trip is completed

    So I’d interpret that as only the booker

    May be if travelling as family can book two hotel rooms, as two separate flight + hotel bookings and at least each lead booker still gets qualified for £50 (5000 Avios) back using this promotion.
