British Airways teams up with Uber
Uber users will soon be able to collect Avios on every journey they take by car, coach or train booked via the Uber app.
They just need to link their British Airways Executive Club and Uber accounts.
From later this month, members of the airline’s loyalty programme will be eligible to collect 1 Avios for every £1 spent on any ride, whether that be by car, coach or train, booked on Uber in the UK.
These can then be put towards worldwide flights, upgrades and extras.
To celebrate the new partnership, members who link their Executive Club and Uber accounts via the Uber app will receive 250 bonus Avios.
Avios is a global loyalty currency used by airlines including British Airways, Iberia, Aer Lingus, Vueling and Qatar Airways.
It can be collected by flying worldwide and now spending with Uber.
Users simply need to link their Executive Club and Uber accounts, by entering their details into the Uber app in the settings section.
The Avios will then automatically appear in each member’s account after every Uber ride.
Avios can be used as part-payment towards reward flights, with British Airways guaranteeing a minimum of 14 reward seats on every long-haul flight, and 12 on every short-haul flight, to and from London Heathrow and London Gatwick.
Members can fly from as little as £1 and 18,500 Avios, which is enough for an off-peak economy return flight to more than 40 destinations in Europe.
Andrew Brem, General Manager at Uber UK said: “We’re thrilled to be able to help Uber users collect Avios on every single journey. So everyday trips, such as going to work is helping get somewhere a little more exotic with British Airways”.
All British Airways Executive Club Members will be able to collect Avios through the Uber App by the end of the month.
