Vueling, BA’s very low-cost baby sister, has launched a short 2-day sale with flights from €12 each way.
These seats are for travel between 2nd November 2019 and 28th February 2020.
Current Vueling routes from the UK include:
Edinburgh to Barcelona
Manchester to Barcelona
Birmingham to Barcelona
Cardiff to Mallorca, Alicante, Malaga
London Gatwick to Amsterdam, Paris, Rome, Alicante, Barcelona, Bilbao, Asturias, A Coruna
This article explains how to earn Avios with Vueling. There are basically two options – into Iberia Plus or into Vueling Club, both based on price paid unless your flight has an IB flight number. You can transfer the Avios into British Airways Executive Club via ‘Combine My Avios’.
Your best option to maximise your miles when paying is American Express Preferred Rewards Gold. This offers double points – 2 per £1 – when you when you book flight tickets directly with an airline. Our review of Amex Gold is here.
You can book the sale fares on their website here.
