Qatar Airways is currently offering a double Avios promotion on bookings made through Qatar Airways Holidays.
To take advantage of this double Avios promotion, Qatar Airways Privilege Club members have to book flights and hotel packages with Qatar Airways Holidays between August 2 and August 16, 2022 and travel by March 2023.
Members will then earn double Avios for every $1 spent on over 200,000 hotels in over 32 countries. Don’t forget to enter the Privilege Club membership number at the booking stage or else the Avios will be omitted (Please check the terms and conditions for this offer below).
About Qatar Airways Holidays:
I am sure you are familiar with American Airlines Vacations or British Airways Holiday. Similar to these two, Qatar Airways Holidays is a travel and service department under Qatar Airways Group offering cheap and discounted all-inclusive travel packages around the world.
You can book flights + hotel packages, tours, transportation, and even the 2022 Qatar World Cup packages on the website to earn Avios on Qatar Airways.
When to book with Qatar Airways Holidays:
Personally, booking through Qatar Airways Holidays is not bad when you need to earn extra Avios on your travels. In the past, I too frequently made flight and hotel bookings as packages because from time to time, the hotel rate was much cheaper than usual. It is a great way to earn extra Avios if you have a long holiday.
Earning Avios From Qatar Airways Holidays:
With the double Avios promotion, I have calculated the potential Avios earnings based on popular routes using Qatar Airways’ Avios Calculator. Note that the earning rate is based on the lowest tier “Burgundy” member flying on a round-trip ticket.
- London to Singapore in Economy Classic: 14,208 Avios (71,04 before promotion)
- London to Singapore in Economy Comfort: 28,412 Avios (14,206 before promotion)
- Frankfurt to Bangkok in Business Classic: 30,596 Avios (15,298 before promotion)
- Frankfurt to Bangkok in Business Comfort: 48,952 Avios (24,476 before promotion)
This is definitely an amazing deal to rack up a whole load of Avios especially if you are Privilege Club’s top-tier member. For example, as a Platinum member, you can earn up to 140,000 Avios on a round-trip journey from Los Angeles to Bangkok.
Moreover, Avios earned through Qatar Airways Privilege Club can be transferred to British Airways Executive Club and vice versa. So if have found great award spots from either two programs, the double Avios you earned will be beneficial.
Earning Points and Night Staying at the Hotel:
Unfortunately, when booking hotels through Qatar Airways Holidays, it is considered a “Third-Party” website so members are not eligible to earn and credit points and nights to their hotel program. Instead, members will earn Avios on their Qatar Airways Privilege Club accounts at a 2:1 rate.
Summary:
This double Avios promotion is a pretty good deal for those who plan to travel overseas. August 16 is less than a week from today so take advantage to earn as many Avios as you can for your next flight.
