Latest 2024 availability
British Airways releases new reward seats day and night, and given that nobody has the time to constantly search for new availability, we’ve done the leg work for you.
Here’s some of the best reward seat availability to book with your Avios right now, using Reward Flight Finders Calendar and Worldwide Map Search.
London – Abu Dhabi, UAE
With a daily flight from London Heathrow there’s some solid seat availability for Avios collectors. If you’re specifically looking for a First Class experience, you’re limited to booking seats in July and August, where you’ll find dates with 2 seats to book. There’s good availability in Business Class between June and September, with lots of dates having up to 4 seats to book. Availability picks up again in January 2025 through to March, with many dates having 2 Business Class seats available.
Abu Dhabi is also a great option if you want to go to Dubai but can’t find availability as you can travel to Dubai in around 60-90 minutes by taxi or coach. You can also use Abu Dhabi to get to Oman by road or flight.
