I recently had the chance to experience British Airways First Class and shared my “First Impressions” on the product. This was my first chance to fly in their new First Class seats. I chose 2A and settled into a long day time flight. As a result of the day time flight, I never used the swag they provide to their First Class passengers including an amenity kit, a blanket, and a set of First Class pajamas. So I’m giving our readers a chance to win all three.
How To Enter
I’ve taken flights on British Airways and on other airlines using British Airways Avios points. But never both at the same time. This is because British Airways has relatively high fuel surcharges on their flights. So I chose to redeem my Avios points elsewhere like with the 4,500 point one-way awards on partner airlines. So I’d like to hear from you. In order to enter this giveaway for a chance to win, simply answer the following question in the comment section:
- Where do / would you redeem your Avios points for the best value and why?
Prize Details
One lucky winner will be selected at random to receive the following:
- 1 British Airways Large First Class Pajamas set
- 1 British Airways First Class blanket
- 1 British Airways First Class amenity kit
Giveaway Rules
- One entry per person
- Winner must have ship-to address in the US or Canada
- Winner will be selected on Thursday, August 22, 2013 at 5 PM ET from eligible entries
Bottom Line
If you like swag and your First Class pajamas don’t go to waste, enter through this post for your chance to win a set of British Airways pajamas, a First Class blanket and a First Class amenity kit.

I redeem them for direct flights from DCA to ORD – 9,000 r/t coach, and sometimes 27,000 r/t in first.
inter europe flights on partner airlines, low fees
I used my Avios for short-haul intra-European (BA and sometimes partners) or domestic US (AA) flights. 4500 ow is awesome!
I use Avios for the 2 for 1 first class intl travel after 30k credit card spend
I would redeem them for cheap American Airlines flights around the USA. Perhaps a trip to Ft. Meyers/Naples area, maybe Arizona?
I used them for flights within South America earlier this year. SCL-EZE, EZE-MDZ, UIO-LIM. All inexpensive flights with Avios points!
Although I haven’t used any yet, I plan to use my Avios for intra-European flights.
Short direct flights on partner airlines.
I use my avios between nyc-yul, nyc-yyz and boston-dublin in business class.
I save tons of $ this way.
BOS-DUB-BOS round trips (on EI)…. to get my Temple Bar on!
I use them for flights within Europe.
short hops on AA
I love using avios for DCA-MIA.
inter europe flights are always good as are AA flights up and down the east and west coasts of the USA.. sometimes, I’ll do a Biz fare from ORD or JFK to LHR, but only if I can get the flights I want – which is less and less often.
Jfk-yvr on cathay pacific first class! Absolutely every avios spent on that flight worth it!
AA redemptions fro MIA to the Carribean and Central Americas. My fave is MIA-CUN for 9K
Favorite uses are short flights on AA for 4,500 Avios one way in economy or BOS-DUB on Aer Lingus for 25,000 Avios one way in business.
Would love to use mine on AA for our return flight MBJ- DFW direct. No availability so far…
Redempt on AA when in the US of A for short to medium hops.
Shorthauls rock!
I use avios for AA short routes like jfk-fll
LAX-HNL! Other airlines ask for 35k miles at least for US-Hawaii, with Avios, only 25k miles needed.
short haul domestic flights!
Short hauls within the US
Short-haul domestic flights in order to position myself for more lucrative mileage runs
I typically use avios for short hops on AA, but the new a380 service LAX-LHR has caught my eye
BOS-DUB RT via Aer Lingus because of the low number of Avios points needed to book a flight!
Short distance within the USA or within Europe. Typically 4500 avios ow.
definitely short-haul AA flights probably to Florida
Vegas baby! LAX to LAS on AA for 4500 Avios o/w in coach or 13500 o/w in First.
Short-haul AA flights in the Pacific Northwest. Maybe Sacramento to Portland or LA.
BOS-DUB in premium cabin!
Short US domestic trips; can’t beat the 4,500 miles and $2.50 value!
Planning a AUS-LAX-HNL trip next year and it’s only going to cost 45K Avios for RT
The intra-zone awards, because they’re of incredible value.
Short haul hops for 4500 Avios are hard to beat.
I use my avios for NYC-YYZ on AA. With as little as 9,000 points you can get a roundtrip ticket that normally costs between 275-500 dollars, and the best part is between both JFK and LGA you can almost always find award availability.
Miami to Turks and Caicos, only 4,500 Avios!
inter europe is always the best for me.
Thanks!
haven’t used mine yet, but now have enough for 2+ J trips to Ireland or 1 trip to HKG in J for 2 of us
LAX to LIH. I have southwest points to get me to LAX, so Avios to LIH would be great.
Short-haul all the way 🙂 Thanks!
I love the redemption on AA for non-stop flights. 9000 r/t is amazing.
Domestic flights on partner airlines.
I would use it for short flights on AA. So cheap and easy to use!
Short haul AA flights with cheap cancellation cost if plans change.
Perfect for short weekend getaways.
Short haul AA flights, which for me means ATL to either DFW, MIA, ORD, or LGA.
CX J or F from JFK – HKG.
Cheap American flights.
