Blue benefits
Changes to your Tier Point Collection period
We're constantly improving the British Airways Executive Club for our Members, which is why we're changing your Tier Point collection period to make things a little simpler.
Avios - the reward currency of the Club
As a Blue Member, you'll collect Avios when you fly and can keep topping up that balance by collecting on your everyday spend, hotel stays, car hire and much more.
When you’ve collected enough you can spend your Avios on flights and upgrades, or choose from a range of other rewards.
Collecting Avios
Collect Avios on flights
As a Blue Member you’ll collect collect six Avios per qualifying pound (GBP) spent whenever you fly with British Airways or American Airlines, and five Avios per qualifying euro (EUR) with Iberia.
On other oneworld® airlines, it depends on how far you fly, your choice of cabin, and which airline you fly with.
Collect Avios on everyday spend
Collect Avios when you shop through British Airways with hundreds of brands, including Apple, Macy's and Home Depot.
Collect Avios on hotels and car hire
Collect Avios when you stay with our accommodation partners, including Marriott Bonvoy® and Airbnb, and also when you hire a car with Avis.
Claim Avios from previous flights
Have you flown with us in the three months before you joined the Executive Club? No problem. You can still claim Avios for those flights.
Spending Avios
Fly for less using your Avios
You can choose to spend your Avios on a Reward Flight, an upgrade to the next cabin on a cash booking, or as part payment on flights or vacations. You can also use them for seat selection and baggage.
Hotels, car hire and experiences
You can use your Avios on hotel bookings, car rental and experiences worldwide, such as vacation excursions.
Other benefits of Blue Membership
Collect and spend Avios together
You and up to six other members of your household, including children, can pool your Avios into a Household Account. So you can bring rewards even closer.
You can also spend your Avios with people outside of your household, by adding them to your Family and Friends list.
Collect Tier Points to reach the next tier
You'll earn Tier Points when you travel with us and our oneworld® airline partners.
Tier Points move you through the tiers of the Club, unlocking more exclusive benefits with each new membership level – from extra baggage to lounge access.
Save your travel information
You can save your seating preferences and meal choices in your account, so you won't have to provide them every time you travel.
Added reassurance when you fly
We always try to get you to your destination with minimum fuss every time.
But if your flight is busy, your Blue Membership gives you priority over non-Members on standby and reservation waiting lists.
