We both have a BA Amex Premium card to earn 2 companion vouchers each year.

There are still some places that don't accept Amex but we've not come across too many of those.

If shopping on-line and the retailer doesn't accept Amex but does accept PayPal, remember that you can set up Amex as your default PayPal payment method.

We bought a takeaway from Hungry House last night - should give us 70 Avios and trigger the 1000 extra on one of the accounts
Many thanks neilhd - hadn't seen that☺

Seeking Avois Experts

My lovely mother in-law, in her 80's, has 'given me' her Avois points (166,000). By given me I mean lots of letters/statements from yonks ago. I'm planning trip next Aug and she will not use them so kindly given to me.

Question is what do I do with them?

I've got a BA exec account but it looks like I have to pay to transfer Avois into that account.

I use my exec points (household account) to upgrade flights.

I've never entered the 'world' of Avois, which frankly looks very complicated.

Can anyone help with what to do to maximise usuage?

Seems such a shame to waste

Many thanks

Have a look on the Head for Points website. There's loads of information about earning and using Avios on there.
