Bonus Avios with The Wine Flyer
If you missed the Black Friday offer or you need a top-up, The Wine Flyer has launched another tempting offer just in time for Christmas. You can earn up to 5,000 bonus Avios on top of the usual 5 Avios per £1 spent until 14th December 2025.
To be eligible, you must use the code FESTIVEBONUS at check-out. Selected subscription and partnership cases are excluded. Bonus Avios are only awarded on the cash portion of your order. If you part-pay with Avios, the cash element must still reach £100 or £150.
The offer includes a range of cases, including festive options and single bottles. It’s not just wine either. You can opt for a Champagne selection, vodka, tequila, gin, and even gift packs.
You have to be careful with your BA status discounts if you’re spending close to £150, as they can bring your spend below the bonus threshold.
IHG Reward Sale: Up to 15% Off
If you’re an IHG status holder, you can now get a discount on reward stays when you book by 11th December for stays from 4th January to 28th February 2026.
The discount depends on your IHG One Rewards status level:
- Silver/Gold: 10%
- Platinum/Diamond: 15%
The discount is valid at selected properties worldwide. There is no separate registration link. As long as you are logged in with an eligible elite account, the reduced points rate should display automatically when you search for Reward Nights. There is no minimum stay and no limit on the number of bookings you can make.
At first, this may not seem like a big discount, but if you’re booking a high-value stay, the discount can really add up. If you already have a cancellable stay booked, it’s worth checking now if you can get it for a better rate.
If you don’t have status yet, IHG is also running a 15% off Reward Nights offer at selected new or refurbished hotels (different dates and terms). If you are short of points, IHG is still running the 100% bonus.
1,000 Bonus Accor Points on Selected Stays in Europe and Beyond
If you’re planning a short break, the latest Accor offer is worth a look. You can now earn 1,000 bonus Accor points when booking 2+ nights at selected brands.
