Maximise your Avios, air miles and hotel points

The HfP chat thread – Friday 19th February

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

We have decided to run this daily chat thread on Head for Points during the coronavirus outbreak.

Historically, the daily ‘Bits’ articles were the de facto repository for random comments and questions.  With the news flow being lighter, we are running fewer ‘Bits’ articles.

The comments under this article are where you should post questions about travel and, indeed, anything else on your mind.  At this tricky time, and given that many of you are at home, we want the HfP community to have a place to chat.

Please only comment under the main articles on the site if your comment is directly related to the topic of the article.  This has long-term benefits as it keeps the commentary relevant for people who read those articles in the future.

Old chat threads are hidden from the HfP home page.  If you want to look for something in an old thread, click here.  This brings up all the articles in our ‘General’ category which includes the chat threads.

    So GBP/USD good now. Anyone In know- is likely to go higher or is this a good time to buy?

    • mr_jetlag says:

      likely to stay around 1.37 – 1.45, but if you don’t need the USD now then I would wait.

        Thanks. Will wait. Somehow I set auto exchange of £500 @1.40 on Revolut. No idea of my thought process at the time but it made me aware of the current rate 🤷‍♀️🤣

    • BuildBackBetter says:

      Likely to stay around 1.30-1.50

    • Lord Doncaster says:

      The trend will be for GBP to strengthen and/or USD to weaken.
