100K Avios with new offers on British Airways, Iberia, and Aer Lingus

Avios Loyalty Programs of British Airways Executive Club, Iberia Plus or Aer Lingus, can rejoice that all three co-branded credit card brands now offer 100,000 Avios for purchases of $5,000. This is a great return for Avios-loving customers as it's a large haul with relatively low spending. One example: After meeting the spending requirement, one would be able to purchase three business class tickets one-way between the northeastern US cities and Madrid via Iberia Plus. This is just one example of the many good uses of Avios.Details about the Key Cards & OffersTo view our dedicated card page, click the details below.

If you value Avios at $0.01 per piece, you can expect a return of $1,000 for every $5,000 spent. That's 20%. This is a great deal. For more ways to redeem Avios, see our Avios Sweet Spots post.This is despite the fact that there are amazing deals on the Amex Platinum Card, Chase Sapphire Preferred and other cards. These offers seem less appealing in today's environment. With the Sapphire Preferred, you can earn 100,000 transferrable points which could be used to transfer Avios. This makes Avios-earning card less useful unless you are able to take advantage of side benefits such as the 10% discount on British Airways flights leaving the US with your British Airways card. These cards can easily be paid for if you take advantage of such benefits.These cards are subject to Chase's 5/24 rule. If you are interested, you must have opened no more than 5 credit cards within the last 24 months.
