Maximise your Avios, air miles and hotel points

More free Avios added to Avios Suitcase (and 400+ if you’ve not played before)

Links on Head for Points may pay us an affiliate commission. A list of partners is here.

Last month I wrote about Avios Suitcase, the new Avios app which is now available on Facebook.

If you didn’t play the app at the time, it is worth clicking on the link above and doing it.  You should earn around 400 Avios by taking part, and it only takes a few minutes.  Take a look at the comments below the article as well, as they explain how to get around some of the buggy issues that may crop up.

If you did play last month, a new badge is now available.  This will earn you a whopping 20 Avios points.

Avios Suitcase

The new badge is Twitter Follower and will link your Twitter account to follow @aviosuk.  You can, of course, unfriend AviosUK immediately afterwards if you want, although to be fair they are very measured in what they send out – you won’t be drowing in tweets.

Whether it is worth the few seconds of your time required to earn just 20 Avios is up to you …..

    How generous of them 🙂

  • Clive J says:

    Thanks, I’ve been checking now and again to see if there are any more offers. I don’t use Twitter, not sure it’s worth opening an account for 20 Avios – although I’ll probably end up doing so !

  • andystock says:

    Done, took all of 10 seconds so can’t really moan.

  • Luke says:

    Avios Suitcase won’t load for me anymore. I deleted the app then searched again but still can’t get to it.

  • Oh Matron! says:

    How on earth do you become an “Exclusive Member?” I can’t see any way of liking the page…?!

  • Keith says:

    Seems like the Avios suitcase SA app has been restricted. Had a cheeky look to see if I could earn an extra 20 avios. Won’t let me on. 🙁

  • Ed E says:

    If you already follow them on Twitter, you just have to open the app and it automatically adds the 20 Avios. Quite possibly the easiest 20 Avios I have ever earned!

  • Sam says:

    Well – I did from scratch – can’t work out how to get more than 310 Avios, but hey ho, it took seconds, so thanks!
