British Airways announced a special promotion that offers a 50% discount on Avios long-haul redemptions in any cabin and a 25% discount on short-haul redemptions.

Bookings must be made by October 13, 2020 for travel through June 30, 2021.  Registration is not required although the Executive Club member must have earned or spend a minimum of one Avios in the preceding 12 months. The discount applies only to direct flights.

“For a limited time only, you can use as much as 50% fewer Avios on any reward flight,” the airline said in a statement on its website.

A round-trip flight from New York to London in Club World business class would normally be 100,000 Avios but, under the promotion, the cost is 50,000 Avios.  Similarly, a round-trip flight from London to Venice in Club Europe business class would normally be 38,500 Avios, but on sale it would cost 28,875 Avios.
