UK to Sydney with Avios

[frankiejr]

Hey all, I am trying to book a trip from the UK to Sydney with 220K Avios and a Companion Voucher but really struggling. Not helped by the BA rewards site keeps failing. Any help or suggestions on this?

Give up, unless you’re online the moment they are released 355 days in advance at midnight. Go on Qatar instead for 180k Avios and no voucher, and get a better product.

It’s not impossible at all. Many on here have done it with BA, including us. You just need to be flexible and on the ball at t-355. Plenty of threads on here as to how to do it but it usually means calling a non UK BA booking number at midnight or 1am in the summer.
