50% Off Loganair Avios Redemptions – From Just 3,250 Avios One-Way – ENDS TOMORROW
Loganair is celebrating switching to Avios with a tempting promotion: half-price redemptions on all eligible routes. But you’ll need to act fast, the offer ends tomorrow.
Redemptions are available for flights from 23rd June with plenty of availability (Christmas and New Year blackout dates apply). Every redemption flight is now 3,250 Avios each way (6,500 not in the sale – already a competitive rate). This includes a 15kg checked baggage allowance and 6kg of hand luggage + a handbag. You’ll even get a free snack and drink. Even if the flight has a stop, you still pay the Avios for one flight.
Remember, you also need to pay taxes and surcharges, which are on average £35 per flight.
To book, you must have a Loganair Loyalty account and transfer Avios from your BA account to Loganair. You can’t book Loganair via BA. You must also link your accounts, and your first name and surname must match on both. Transfers are instant, so you don’t need to worry about the Avios not transferring on time. You can easily transfer Avios back to BA if you change your mind.
You can also transfer Avios from Finnair Plus, the Qatar Privilege Club, and more to your BA account and then transfer them to Loganair from there.
Loganair also flies to a huge range of UK airports, including Heathrow (T2). You can view the full list of flight routes here.
Locations with plenty of route options include Edinburgh, Aberdeen, Belfast City, Exeter, Glasgow, Isle of Man, Manchester, Newcastle, Newquay, Shetland, Southampton and Stornoway.
Loganair flights can be expensive, which makes redemptions even more valuable!
For example, here are the cash prices from the LHR to the Isle of Man in August:
There are plenty of dates available:
After transferring Avios, simply select ‘Spend Avios’ on the Loganair site when searching.
Avios seats are non-refundable and non-cancellable, though changes (date or route) are allowed for a fee, subject to availability.

Flying Blue Turns 20: Earn 20% Bonus Miles on Air France & KLM Flights
To celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Flying Blue loyalty programme, you can now get 20% bonus miles on all KLM, Air France (excluding La Première) and Transavia flights until 31st December 2025 for flights booked by 20th June.
This offer is part of a range of promotions, including automatic Platinum status for one year for those born on 6th June, 2005 (terms apply).
Here are the miles you would usually earn vs the bonus miles per tier:
| Status Level | Miles Earned per €1 Spent |
|---|---|
| Explorer | 4 Miles (now 4.8) |
| Silver | 6 Miles (now 7.2) |
| Gold | 7 Miles (now 8.4) |
| Platinum | 8 Miles (now 9.6) |
| Ultimate | 9 Miles (now 10.8) |
This isn’t a huge bonus unless you’re flying long-haul business or on a route that would have earned plenty of miles. It’s also a much better deal if you hold a higher status level. However, it’s a nice little bonus and worth booking your flight before 20th June if you were thinking of booking in the next few months.
The bonus miles are based on the ticket’s base fare, excluding rewards, complimentary upgrades, and other fees. Miles will not be earned on taxes, fees, or charges.
Bonus miles will apply automatically (no need to sign up). You will see the bonus miles in your account up to 6 weeks after your flight.
