Haven’t looked for a while for USA redemptions.
Searched for a flight to phoenix on avios. 82.5k + £1713.48 in Club.
When did the cash element become that amount of money?
Since BA started to charge and then increase its egregious surcharges.
Are you Avios poor? You aren’t selecting the optimal price. Should be the top one of the below options for best value albeit it ain’t great nowadays.
137500 Avios + £ 685.06
123750 Avios + £ 1,000.06
103150 Avios + £ 1,360.06
82500 Avios + £ 1,715.06
77000 Avios + £ 1,855.06
68750 Avios + £ 1,965.06

I will be avios (and cash) poor if I redeem at those levels.
I’ll either slum it up in economy for £500 or use some finnair miles to go on AA metal I think, hopefully without the insane surcharges.

Why not buy a cash PE fare then UuA? Happy medium perhaps…

Good solution actually, works out at £1000 + 50k avios I think. If I can tie it up as a holiday with car hire double TP’s too 😉
