British Airways Holidays Offers Up to 20,000

British Airways Holidays is offering up to 20,000 bonus Avios for bookings made by Tuesday, September 1, 2026. Travelers must register on a specific page of ba.com before making their booking to qualify for the promotion.

This bonus Avios offer applies to both 'Flight + Hotel' and 'Flight + Car' holiday packages. The amount of bonus Avios awarded depends on the duration of the booked package.

Bonus Avios Tiers

The bonus structure is based on the number of nights in the holiday package. The bonus Avios are credited after the holiday is completed.

For Flight + Hotel bookings, the duration is based on the number of hotel nights. For Flight + Car bookings, the duration is calculated from the rental period. All travel must be completed by August 31, 2027.

The Triple Dip Advantage

Booking with British Airways Holidays can provide multiple layers of Avios earnings, a benefit often called a 'triple dip'. The company states that British Airways Club members collect 1 bonus Avios for every £1 spent on flight and hotel or car packages.

An additional layer comes from payment methods. Using a British Airways American Express Premium Plus Card to pay for a package earns cardholders double Avios, or 3 Avios per £1, from American Express. However, this specific benefit is only available on payments made by October 6, 2026. The standard British Airways American Express Credit Card does not offer this perk.

The final layer is the standard Avios earned from the flight itself. With the current promotion adding up to 20,000 bonus Avios, Head for Points notes this creates a potential 'quadruple dip' for bookings this weekend.

Tier points within The British Airways Club are also earned at a more attractive rate when booking a package compared to booking a standalone flight.

Payment Flexibility

A key benefit of booking with British Airways Holidays is flexible payment terms. Customers only need to pay a deposit at the time of booking. The full balance is not due until 5 to 7 weeks before departure.

This structure can improve cash flow. It also provides a form of cancellation flexibility. If a traveler changes their mind, they can choose not to make the final payment. They would forfeit their deposit, but this is typically less costly than losing the entire amount paid for a non-refundable 'flight only' ticket.

This payment option requires a trade-off for those holding the Premium Plus card, as the double Avios benefit from American Express ends on October 6, 2026. Travelers must decide whether paying in full before that date to secure the extra Avios is more valuable than the flexibility of the deposit scheme.

Full details of the offer are available on ba.com, and registration before booking is mandatory.
