The Wine Flyer Triple Avios Easter Offer

triple Avios with The Wine Flyer

The Wine Flyer has launched a great Easter offer. For every £1 you spend, you’ll now collect 15 Avios instead of the usual 5. That’s triple Avios on almost everything across their website.

To be eligible, you must purchase by 21st April.

The Wine Flyer has a great selection of wines, beers and spirits, from individual bottles to cases and selections. It’s a great time to stock up for Easter.

Here’s an idea of the Avios you could earn:

Individual Bottles

  • Beccacino Prosecco Brut NV – £13.99 – 210 Avios
  • No8 Wire Sauvignon Blanc – £14.99 – 225 Avios
  • Bread & Butter Pinot Noir – £15.99 – 240 Avios

Mixed Cases

  • Bestselling White and Rosé Selection (12 bottles) – £159.99 – 2,400 Avios
  • Easter Reds Selection – £145.99 – 2,190 Avios
The Wine Flyer Easter Red Wine selection
The Wine Flyer Easter Reds Selection
  • Essential Spring Whites Selection – £139.99 – 2,100 Avios
  • Light Reds Selection – £159.99 – 2,400 Avios
  • Premium Champagne Selection – £125.99 – 1,890 Avios

This deal could really add up, especially if you’re planning a bulk order. You could earn 6,000 Avios if you do a £400 bulk order, or even more if you pay via an Avios earning credit card like the AMEX Platinum.

To earn Avios, you must log in to your BA Executive Club account, which you can do at check-out.

Return Business Class Fares to the Maldives with BeOnd from €1,712 (£1,431)

Maldives

If you’re looking for a luxurious yet affordable way to reach the Maldives, Luxury Flight Club has found fantastic Business Class fares to the Maldives in May and June 2025 from €1,712 return. These are very good prices compared to their standard fares, which are often over €3,000.

To secure this deal, you must book by 31st March. A minimum stay of 3 days is required.

The discount fares apply to the following routes:

  • Milan Malpensa to Malé from €1,712 (£1,431)
  • Zurich to Malé from €2,203 (£1,841)

There are different fares to choose from. Here’s an example of a one-way flight from Milan to Malé on 14th May:

BeOnd

BeOnd

BeOnd is a new, somewhat different airline offering an exclusive all-business class experience. The airline focuses on delivering excellent service, high-quality dining, and a relaxed boutique feel.

BeOnd

Just keep in mind that BeOnd doesn’t have a loyalty programme, so you won’t earn miles on these flights.

How to Book

You can use Google Flights to compare fares for your preferred travel dates. You can then use BeOnd’s website to book your flights.

There is currently plenty of availability, but this fare will likely sell out quickly.

TAP Air Portugal Opens First International Lounge in Miami: Priority Pass and Star Alliance Gold Access Available

TAP Air Portugal

TAP Air Portugal has just opened its first lounge outside of Portugal – great news if you fly through Miami International Airport. The lounge is in partnership with Avianca.

The new lounge, which can accommodate up to 337 passengers, will be open 24 hours a day and is located in South Terminal near gate J4.

TAP’s new lounge ticks plenty of boxes. Here’s what you can expect:

  • A great range of food and snacks, including Portuguese favourites such as pastéis de nata and cheeses.
  • A selection of premium alcoholic drinks and Portuguese wines, including vinho verde, red wine, and port wine.
  • Modern toilets and showers
  • High-speed Wi-Fi and dedicated workspaces
  • Relaxation areas
  • A dedicated children’s play area

Sofia Lufinha, TAP’s Chief Customer Officer, described the lounge as “a little bit of Portugal in Miami.”

Who Can Access the Lounge?

You can enter the lounge if you’re flying in Business Class with TAP or Avianca or flying in Business or First Class with any Star Alliance Airline.

You can also enter the lounge if you have elite status within the TAP or Avianca loyalty programmes, including:

  • TAP Miles&Go Navigator
  • TAP Miles&Go Gold
  • Avianca LifeMiles Gold
  • Avianca LifeMiles Diamond 

Entry is also allowed if you hold Star Alliance Gold equivalent status with a Star Alliance airline.

Star Alliance Gold status matches a range of popular airline loyalty programme statuses, including Miles&More Senator, Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer Elite Gold, Turkish Airlines Miles&Smiles Elite and United MileagePlus Gold. Make sure you read our guide on lounge access with airline status for more information.

Access is also open to Priority Pass holders. For more information, read our guide to lounge access with lounge passes. Priority Pass memberships can either be bought or come as a credit card perk. The other Priority Pass lounge in the terminal is the Turkish Airlines lounge, which you can access as a Star Alliance Gold member.

One-day passes may be purchased, subject to availability and capacity.

    Thanks Katrina for highlighting this fare with beOnd to MLE from Milan, I agree it is a fabulous fare and the airline gets some great reviews for the cabin, service and food.

    In my opinion, before booking it is also important to keep in mind and consider the potential drawbacks of this airline as from what I can make out several passengers have experienced some significant delays and cancellations due to it’s current fleet size of just 2 aircraft.

    Great product and price if all goes to schedule.

      Hi Kevin, good point to make. It would be very disappointing to have a flight like this cancelled if there were no other options to rebook.

Checking out the new No 1 lounge at @heathrow_airp Checking out the new No 1 lounge at @heathrow_airport T2. Very impressed with the elegant feel to the lounge. It’s definitely a step up from the older style of No1. I’d go as far to say that it looks better than quite a few airline lounges. All drinks are included apart from champagne and there was a good selection of tasty food as well. Full review coming soon. #airportlounge #heathrowairport #luxurytravel #no1lounge
