In a rare email, Seatspy has just given word there’s some Avios First Class availability mid-February to the Maldives with BA.

To think this route is usually only served by business class, you get a hell of a lot of bang for your Avios, it’s even off-peak too! so you’ll save 30,000 Avios per person.

If you’re sitting on an AmEx 2 for 1 voucher it’s probably the trip to cash it in for. It’ll set you back 170,000 Avios and £1,203.52 for 2 people which is a bargain when you consider…

The same cash tickets would set you back over £15,000 for 2 people. That means you’re getting 8.2p per Avios (Avios are typically worth 1p each). If you want it even cheaper, you’ll have to give BA a ring (Due to their IT being utterly shit) and depart from Inverness to save on Air Passenger Duty.
