We reiterate this in every article: points from loyalty programs can always be bought, But they should be purchased only when you have immediate and strategic use in mind. In particular you have to buy them when there are bonuses, promotions that vary from company to company and period to period.
Today we are talking about the promotion of British Airways giving away 50% of bonus points over points bought.
With this offer, it is then possible to buy points at a discount from the normal list price.
How to use points to save on your ticket
Buying points can be a great way to make up for the lack of points needed to redeem an award ticket, or it can be a strategy to save on the cost of the cash ticket.
For example, buying 100 thousand points costs 1,800, in total - thanks to the bonus - you will get 150 thousand Avios points. Enough to detach a round-trip ticket from Milan to Bangkok with Qatar Airways.
Each route costs 75k Avios, to which must be added approximately 350€ in surcharges and taxes. The same ticket bought cash can cost even more than 4,000 euros, here using points can practically halve the expense.
But the use of Avios points is also possible for traveling with Iberia and, as we showed, recently to go to Christmas in New York: it takes less than 70 thousand Avios points to detach a round-trip ticket that would otherwise cost more than 2,000 euros.
