  Normally, transfers to British Airways, Iberia, and Aer Lingus Avios are at a 1:1 ratio. This promotion offers a valuable opportunity to maximize points, especially for booking Qatar Airways Qsuite flights, since Avios programs (including Qatar Avios) typically have better award availability than other Oneworld programs like American AAdvantage.

Quick Summary of the Avios Program

Avios is the shared loyalty currency used by several airline frequent flyer programs, allowing members to earn and redeem points across multiple carriers. The five primary Avios partner programs are:​

1. British Airways Executive Club: As the flagship Avios program, members can earn Avios through British Airways flights, partner airlines, and various non-airline partners. Avios can be redeemed for reward flights, upgrades, and other travel-related benefits.​

2. Iberia Plus: Operated by Iberia Airlines, this program enables members to earn and redeem Avios on Iberia flights and partner airlines. Iberia Plus offers unique redemption options, such as discounted award flights during off-peak periods

3. Aer Lingus AerClub: Aer Lingus's loyalty program allows members to collect Avios when flying with Aer Lingus and its partners. Avios can be used for reward flights, upgrades, and other travel rewards.​ (This months bonus

4. Qatar Airways Privilege Club: Qatar Airways adopted Avios as its loyalty currency in March 2022. Members can earn Avios on Qatar Airways flights and partner airlines, redeemable for award flights, cabin upgrades, and more

5. Finnair Plus: Finnair integrated Avios into its frequent flyer program in March 2024. Members earn Avios on Finnair flights and partners, which can be redeemed for flights, upgrades, and other rewards

These programs allow members to transfer Avios between accounts at a 1:1 ratio, facilitating the consolidation of points for redemptions. For example, you can move Avios between your British Airways Executive Club and Qatar Airways Privilege Club accounts to pool your points for a desired award. To transfer Avios, log into your account and navigate to the "Combine My Avios" section, following the provided instructions. ​

How To Maximize your Transfer bonus

1. Fly the Most Famous Qsuite

For example, if you want to fly in one of the most luxurious suites out there, you could transfer fewer than 100,000 points to enjoy this experience — instead of paying nearly $11,000 in cash. Or, if you just want to try out the 2024 World's Best Airline, you could use fewer than 35,000 points instead of paying close to $800.

Cash Rate

With Transfer Bonus (24k for economy or 70k)

2. Fly British Airways Business Class

For my New Yorkers — I know many of you want to check out London or transit through it en route to other countries. Instead of dropping $2,000 on a business class ticket, you have the option to book with 80,000 points plus $350 in taxes and fees. But with the basic 1:1.5 transfer bonus, you’d only need about 54,000 points — which is a steal for business class!

Bilt April’s 2025 Rent Day is a major win for travelers. With up to a 100% transfer bonus to Avios, you can unlock premium experiences like Qatar Qsuite for under 100k points or fly BA business to London for just 54k points. Add in double points, exclusive experiences, and the Rent Free game — and you’ve got every reason to make the most of this month’s offers.
