British Airways and American Express have announced a new partnership that will allow Amex cardholders to earn travel points on their spending. These points can be redeemed for flights, upgrades, and other travel-related expenses with British Airways. The program aims to provide greater value to frequent flyers and travelers who use their Amex cards.
Cardholders will earn travel points for every pound spent on eligible purchases. The points can then be converted into Avios, the currency of British Airways’ Executive Club.

An Amex spokesperson said, “We are thrilled to partner with British Airways to bring this exciting new travel points program to our cardholders. We believe this collaboration will provide our members with even more ways to earn rewards and enjoy unique travel experiences.”
The new travel points program is available to all Amex cardholders starting today. Cardholders can visit the official websites of British Airways and American Express for more information on how to enroll and start earning points.
