Get better rates at select Marriott hotels in the British Airways Holidays sale

This article has been sponsored by British Airways

The British Airways sale is up and running – here is our main article – and continues to offer some attractive offers for both flights and holidays.

It is always worth looking at the British Airways ‘Flight + Hotel’ offers as they can offer genuine added value. British Airways Holidays has the scale to get exclusive deals with various hotels which can get you discounts over building the same package yourself or include valuable additional perks.

The Marriott promotion is only available until 22nd June – use this page of the BA website to get a quote and book.

The Euro Traveller packages are as low as £389 for seven nights for two people. We have also pulled together the best Club Europe packages for our readers. We have looked at packages for September onwards which, fingers crossed, should be a good time to travel.

Earn extra Avios too

As a reminder, booking your holiday with British Airways is a great way of earning Avios as you can effectively ‘triple-dip’ your earnings.

Firstly, as an Executive Club Member you can collect 1 bonus Avios for every £1 you spend on flights + hotel and flights + car packages. You also earn from hotels, cars and sightseeing when booked separately through BA Holidays or added to an existing flight booking.

Secondly, if you use a British Airways American Express Premium Plus credit card to pay for your BA Holidays package, you will earn double Avios (3 per £1) from American Express.

And finally, you will also earn Avios from your flights as usual.

…. plus bonus tier points

In addition to the extra Avios, any BA Holiday bookings for travel between 9th June and 30th September are also eligible for BA’s current double tier points offer.

Don’t forget that tier point targets have also been reduced by 25% which should make (re)qualifying for Executive Club status even easier.

You can find out more about the BA Holidays ‘double tier points’ offer on ba.com here.

…. plus lounge access and use of the First Wing

If you don’t already have status you can also get access to the Galleries Club or Galleries First lounges at Heathrow for travel between 9th June and 30th September.

If you spend £1,500 per person or more on a BA Holidays package you get Fast Track security and Club lounge access.

If you book Club Europe or Club World flights and spend £2,500 per person or more you’ll be able to use The First Wing and access the Galleries First lounge.

You can see the full terms and conditions of this offer on the BA Holidays website here.
