Join Heathrow Rewards and Get 1,000 Avios Bonus

I have written in the past about Heathrow’s old loyalty program WorldPoints. It has now been relaunched as Heathrow Rewards though remains very similar.


Heathrow Rewards allows you to collect points on everything you do at Heathrow including parking and Heathrow Express trains


 


 


 


How to Collect Heathrow Rewards points


You earn 1 point per £1 for spend at shops, bars, restaurants, cafés,  Heathrow



Parking and Heathrow Express, and



1 point for £10 for spend at bureaux de change.








Loyalty Bonuses





You earn 100 bonus points when you reach 250 standard points.








When you collect 500 standard points you earn 100 bonus points and an automatic promotion to premium membership.


 


Premium Membership


Premium members collect double points. So, you will earn 2


 points for every £1 spent a shops, bars, restaurants, cafés,  Heathrow parking and Heathrow Express, and 2 points for every £10 exchanged at bureaux de change.







What are Heathrow Rewards Points Worth?


You can exchange Heathrow Reward points in a variety of different ways.




The simpliest option is airport shopping vouchers. 500 points = £5 voucher (1 point = 1 pence)



You can exchange Heathrow Reward points for airline miles. Heathrow partners with Virgin Flying Club, British Airways Avios, and Lufthansa Miles and More.

250 points = 250 miles/Avios. 


You can book Heathrow Parking with points. 500 points = £10 reward value (1 point = 2 pence)


You can book Heathrow Express tickets online with points. 500 points = £5 reward value (1 point = 1 pence)


While you may be able to get more value from using Heathrow Reward points to book Heathrow Parking, I expect most of the readers of this blog will be more interested in converting these points into airmiles.


 


1,000 Point Registration Bonus


If you are not a member of Heathrow Rewards then you can enjoy lucrative sign up bonuses.


If you sign up via this link you will earn 1,000 bonus points after you spend £25 in one day at Heathrow before 30 September 2013.


1,000 bonus points can be exchanged for 1,000 Avios or 1,000 Virgin Flying Club miles, or 1,000 Miles and More miles.


If you spend £25 at Heathrow just to earn the points, you will be buying them for 2.5 pence a point. So, this deal is only worth it if you are already planning to spend the required amount anyway.


Bureau de change money orders do not count towards the required £25.


British Airways Executive Club is running its own promotion for Heathrow Rewards but it is a lower 600 bonus points for £30 spend.
