Happy Christmas from the Head for Points team

Happy Christmas to you and your family. I hope you enjoy a well deserved break, wherever in the world you are.

Do please post below if your travels have taken you anywhere exciting this Christmas. I am in London, Rhys is in Canterbury, Sinead is in New York and Anika is spending Christmas in the US with her 6-week old daughter.

There is still some new content today, as we kick off a series of 12 articles covering the winners of the first Head for Points Travel & Loyalty Awards. There will be another winner announced on Boxing Day, before full coverage returns as usual on the 27th.

If you want something to read in the meantime, take a look at our ‘Avios Redemption University‘ series and all of our flight, UK lounge and credit card reviews.

Thank you for your support over the past year.

Merry Christmas from a long time lurker, first time poster. Currently in the Philippines but in Ha Long Bay for New Year’s Eve (and hopefully on Q suites for one leg of the return to London!)

Merry Christmas all. Currently half way through a tour of New Zealand flying here via Oslo on Qatar and experiencing QSuites. Taking advantage of Accor promotions also as hotel coverage here is great.

In the UK today, but want to mention that I’ve recently booked first ever redemption. Despite almost no flying on BA/ oneworld, using MR points I have booked 3 weeks away in autumn 2020 with Mrs hdagz, club world LHR-ICN then HND-LHR for 150,000 avios + £1.2k w/ 241 voucher. Never flown biz, ever, and not remotely possible without HfP. So a BIG thanks to our family from yours!!

Now, the question is do I change the Tokyo flight to NRT for the new club suite on A350..?

Merry Christmas from Ruislip and big thanks to Rob, team and all the regulars on here who have helped me so much. This year Domes of Elounda Haute Living was a highlight, as it was with all the family booked mostly points, fantastic place, first time visit to Madrid loved that (Amex travel £200c/b), Milan Grand Prix with Bonvoy Moments (got caught out there with BA strike), then Las Vegas last month flew first BA 241. Looking forward to our travels next year.

Merry Christmas from South Africa, spending 2 weeks travelling up the garden route from Cape Town, mostly due to advice and tips in the comments on this site. Happy Christmas all.
