This initiative marks an expansion of the airline’s Avios-Only program, providing passengers with greater flexibility and accessibility in redeeming their Avios for flights.

The Barbados service, departing from Heathrow on 15 February 2025, offers a total of 400 seats, with the return Avios-Only flight scheduled for 22 February. This offering underscores British Airways’ commitment to enhancing the travel experience for its Executive Club members, allowing them to seamlessly redeem Avios for every seat across all cabins.

Originally introduced last year, the Avios-Only initiative has garnered significant popularity since its inception. Previous routes from Gatwick to Sharm El Sheikh and Heathrow to Geneva paved the way for further expansion, including flights to Las Palmas, Lanzarote, Tenerife, Nice, Florence, Mallorca, Faro, Corfu, Ibiza, and long-haul services to Dubai.

With the introduction of Avios-Only flights to Barbados, British Airways commemorates its 70th anniversary of flights to the Caribbean island, marking a significant milestone in its longstanding history of connecting passengers to exotic destinations.

For Executive Club members, redemption options for Avios-Only flights vary based on cabin class, with World Traveller seats available from 70,000 Avios plus £150, World Traveller Plus from 135,000 Avios plus £330, and Club World from 200,000 Avios plus £450. Additionally, companion and upgrade vouchers may be utilized where applicable, enhancing the value proposition for travellers.

In addition to the Barbados service, British Airways announces an Avios-Only flight between Heathrow and Geneva in February 2025, offering passengers another opportunity to redeem Avios for travel. Flight BA727 is scheduled to depart London on 22 February, with the return service departing Geneva on 1 March, providing travellers with convenient options for their journeys.

With Avios-Only flights, British Airways continues to innovate in the realm of travel rewards, offering passengers greater flexibility and value while celebrating significant milestones in its aviation history.
